Innovation thinking in Ecosystem and Gen AI design I believe there is a real need to construct a different innovation process. We are rapidly seeing the past of innovating simply in terms of operating on our own. We must question partnerships we have seen work in the past and ask if they are suitable for … Continue reading “Innovation thinking in Ecosystem and Generative AI design.”
I completed a series of posts in April 2023, published on this posting site, on cross-sector needs when considering or working in innovation ecosystems. To get to a good understanding of cross-sector innovation ecosystems collaborations, you need to take a very considered holistic view of what is needed in any collaboration, let alone cutting across … Continue reading “Understanding cross-sector innovation ecosystem collaborations”
Collaborations form the essence of discovery, relationships, innovation and new knowledge exchange. As we move increasingly towards more open innovation hubs and increased ecosystem management the recognition is that many of the challenges and problems have not just become too complex to tackle alone, or even in a single industry but require cross-sector innovation (ecosystem … Continue reading “Cross-sector innovation ecosystem collaborations”
Today, our innovation activity needs to transition through collaborating and co-creating, applying ecosystem thinking and platform designs for business. We increasingly recognize the future value and impact for businesses to grow, is through combining innovation, and external collaborations, and ensuring solutions are more sustainable. We need to have a new open architecture for undergoing this … Continue reading “Completing transitions through innovation, ecosystems and sustainable approaches”

Participating in innovation ecosystems does have a number of advantages Having a purposeful innovation ecosystem, well-designed and built for highly … Continue reading “What value does an Innovation Ecosystem offer?”
In the past few months, I have been writing consistently on the need to change our innovating process, thinking and designs into Innovation Ecosystem ones. In October, for example, I wrote, “Why do we need to change our thinking about innovation“. I continue here with some more arguments of “why” we need to move towards … Continue reading “What makes the Innovation Ecosystem different?”
All companies talk about innovation and its growing importance, but why is it that still so few succeed in actually doing it on a repeatable scale? What inhibits innovation? What would drive innovation success? What aspects of innovation are critical to achieving such innovative growth? Where should a company place its emphasis to gain both … Continue reading “Innovation requires a more dynamic systematic approach”
Making Sustainability central to our future innovation capability building will be through the adoption of taking on a new open ecosystem approach. Broader collaborations will become central for future organizations to find ways to cooperate, network and build relationships, that recognize the partnership value, to achieve a sustainable, future business that offers impact and connected … Continue reading “Sustainability will increasingly come through innovation ecosystem designs”
There was a good article within the McKinsey Quarterly published way back in 2007 entitled “Cracking the complexity code,” written by three authors Suzanne Heywood, Jessica Spungin, and David Turnbull. It still has a lot of relevancy in my mind today. They lead this article with “one view of complexity that holds that it is … Continue reading “Cracking the complexity code”
The worrying thing is within any dynamics within the system they are dominated by the slow components, and the rapid components simply have to follow along. Look at how larger organizations operate when they are discovering and learning. It seems to take for ever. They will often wait while one part of the organization is … Continue reading “Dynamics within the system are always dominated by the slow components.”
