There needs to be a fundamental shift in how we manage innovation, which needs ecosystem thinking and design. Not only in thinking and design but in how we structure its architecture, one based on platforms, open apps, and a marketplace for selection appropriate for the innovation delivery intention. This needs to be in open, highly […]
Much of business today is caught up in managing short-term change that is growing in complexity and challenges across the business world globally. There is growing leadership and employee fatigue in managing rolling crises and not being able to adequately focus on the longer term, have that space to renew and in enough time as […]
Following on from a series of posts on innovation ecosystems, especially a recent one, “Seeing innovation differently through ecosystem thinking and design” I outlined a need for a profound shift in the business landscape; well in my view, that time is rapidly approaching. Why do we need to make a really necessary change? Our present […]
The growing need to have a deeper understanding of the connections within Ecosystems has taken me into the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with the ability to quickly search for connected areas that “make” ecosystems. So what is the value of AI when you are researching a subject? I have found applying a selected “natural […]
We are entering the world of innovation ecosystems where broader, more complex innovation challenges, through greater collaborations can be achieved. So to help, there is a dedicated site to building the arguments and exploring options for your future here in collaborative designs and you have found it! Collaborative Ecosystems are forging a new direction and […]
So what can be gained by adopting a more innovation ecosystem approach? As we recognize and push out through more open networking and relationships, we are opening up to new learning. We sharpen our minds and attain smarter resources as this exposes ‘us’ to new fields of expertise and knowledge that we can absorb and […]
Firstly we need to put any innovation ecosystem into context. What are ecosystems, and why they are really valuable to consider when you are thinking about a more radical approach to any new innovation design? Ecosystems are ideal for coalescing around a complex challenge, one that attracts and draws in all potential players who can […]
I am presently wanting to determine a framework for investigating and facilitating the thinking considerations we need when we consider innovation ecosystems. Here I’d like you to consider this as an opening set of thoughts that need to come together far more, in ways that can be repeated and applied to the same basic question […]
We are forming in many different ways our greater collection of relationships that matter to each organization, by connecting increasingly in a network of potential partners and collaborators. The goals are so as to deliver innovative products and services that would not be able to be delivered by only having just the one organization attempting […]
