Connecting the Future Across Three Horizons combining Strategy and Innovation

This is part two of three blogs on the Three Horizon Framework and follows my one called “The value of managing innovation across the three horizons.” It further adds to the initial blog I wrote last year, called “the three horizon approach to innovation (http://bit.ly/ck8KfN). That blog gave a short introduction to the three horizon … Continue reading “Connecting the Future Across Three Horizons combining Strategy and Innovation”

The Value of Managing Innovation across the Three Horizons

I wrote a blog last year called “the three horizon approach to innovation (http://bit.ly/ck8KfN). That gave a short introduction to the three horizon approach arguing we should take a more evolutionary perspective across the entire innovation business portfolio by using this model. Going beyond that initial introduction- a trilogy of blogs I plan to explore … Continue reading “The Value of Managing Innovation across the Three Horizons”

Phasing the Energy Transition by Technology and Horizon Management

Innovation is the key driver to turning our world from a fossil-led one into one based on renewables and technology is the enabler. For this to happen, our focus today should be fully on low-carbon technologies and their technical realization. We should be looking at applying the three horizon methodology here to determine a pathway … Continue reading “Phasing the Energy Transition by Technology and Horizon Management”

Seeing the Energy Transition in Different Horizons and Innovative Ways

The majority of my recent work has been in investigating and building a comprehensive understanding of the #energytransition. It is, to say at the very least, complex and challenging, but for me, satisfying and rewarding. Let me briefly explain how I am going about this and why. Why am I seeing the energy transition in … Continue reading “Seeing the Energy Transition in Different Horizons and Innovative Ways”

Applying innovation thinking in different horizons

In the past few days, I have had some exchanges on twitter with Jairo H Venegas and Ralph-Christian Ohr on different thinking around the three horizon methodology. We share similar views on its value and partly how it can be applied. Ralph and I exchange constantly and occasionally meet up together. Actually, we need another … Continue reading “Applying innovation thinking in different horizons”

Innovation needs different time and thinking horizons

We often constrain our innovation because we ‘shoehorn’ any conceptual thinking into a given time, usually the yearly budgetary plan. This shoehorning often dominates the actions decided and can exercise a large influence in this constraining of ideas to realization. We should make the case that different types of innovation operate and evolve over different … Continue reading “Innovation needs different time and thinking horizons”

Traversing across into horizon 2 for new breaking innovations

Within our ‘business as usual’ attitudes lie the seeds of destruction. Today there is a relentless pace; we are facing stagnation in many maturing markets. We place a disproportionately high amount of our resources in the ‘here and now’ to defend what we have and what we know. A potential ‘big mistake’ We actually subvert … Continue reading “Traversing across into horizon 2 for new breaking innovations”

Traversing different horizons for transformational innovation

Irrespective of the organization, we all struggle with transformational innovation. So often we are simply comfortable in our ‘business as usual’. We gear performance to the short-term, we put the emphasis on the current fiscal year, and we support the core business in numerous ways, usually with lots and lots of incremental innovation, so the … Continue reading “Traversing different horizons for transformational innovation”
