Innovation Improvement
Build best-in-class innovation capability
In a time of significant economic disruption, a company must be fit to renew itself and thrive.
Lower innovation maturity means slower and lower value new product launches, poorer agility and resilience to crisis. It can mean true breakthrough innovation is rare or non-existent.
Our solution is to build the innovation maturity of the firm.
High Innovation performance comes from a company that builds a fit and capability innovation system.
The Roadmap to Mastery is a 4 to 9-month strategic intervention to increase systemic business impact from your innovation activities.
“Rob worked with the team at John Hogg Technical Solutions, leading a strategy refresh programme in conjunction with the IfM. Rob was an excellent facilitator of the sessions, bringing both his personal experience and the tools of the IfM to the sessions enabling John Hogg to re-build their strategy. The investment in working with Rob gave excellent returns when set against the growth the company has seen since. I look forward to the chance of working with him again.”
