The four Dimensions of Innovation

Every Dimension has a specific type of change, pictured in the Brackets

 Product (changes in the things (product/service) which the organization offers)
 Process (changes in the ways that these offerings are created and delivered)
 Position (changes in the context in which the product/service is introduced)

,  Paradigm (changes in the underlying mental models which frame what the
organization does)

Strategic Innovation

Makes sense to have a clear Direction and Framkework for Changes because Innovation
carries Risk and Uncertainty. It is not about writing a Report or having a detailed Plan but
more a Framework for Discussion and flexible learning Process with a core Role for
Leadership that provides Vision, Direction and streches the Goals of the Organizations. The
Leadership has to make sure that the Strategy is communicated with everybody for a higher
Contribution.

 The three core questions of an innovation strategy
o Analysis (what could we do?)
o Selection (what are we going to do (and why)?)
o Implementation (how are we going to do it?)
 Innovation strategy makes the organization capable to work in a complex and
changing environment
 It creates routines to make innovation happen and adapt those routines to changes
 Steps of the strategic management process

1. Mission
2. Objectives
3. Externals & internal analysis
4. Strategic choice
5. Strategy implementation
6. Competitve advantages
 Basic framework strategy

o The firm (goals & values, resources & capabilities, structure & system)

↔︎Strategy ↔︎

o The industry environment (competitors, customers, suppliers)
 A successful strategy is made through an effective implementation of...
o ...long-term, simple and agreed objectives
o ...profound understanding of the competitive environment
o ...objective appraisal of resources
 Measuring performance (Resources ← Relevane → Goals ← Effectivness →
Results ← Efficiency → Resources)
