Reinventing your Organization

 

Are you dissatisfied with the innovation from your organization? Does your company need a new ways to create value or a new Innovation Model? Do you need help convincing others of the changes needed to meet your long-term growth needs?


There is no single template for being innovative – the right model depends on your goals, your business environment, and your level of commitment.

CASE EXAMPLES:

ESTABLISHING an INNOVATION LAB:

As a founding principal of IMS Health’s Innovation Labs and as Global Lead, I established best practices, culture, and relationships for teaming across business units in U.S., Europe and China

>>    Our team created customer-focused analytic products and consulting methods based on user insight, trends, and cross-business capabilities, and an innovation organization that could tap into expertise from across the company

NEW STRUCTURE and TOOLS for an EXISTING ORGANIZATION:

I led an innovation strategy and change management program for a European pharmaceutical company, incorporating design thinking tools into a new innovation structure and needs-based product development

>>    International teams adopted design thinking tools to create game-changing strategic options for a specific franchise, and established new models for ongoing creation of user-centric and holistic product offerings

MATCHING CORPORATE GOALS with INNOVATION MODELS:

I created a Corporate Innovation Models perspective piece for Singularity University, in preparation for their establishment of SU Lab’s Corporate Innovation Program (see below for highlights)

ADDITIONAL ORGANIZATIONAL EXPERIENCE: I have worked with a variety of executives and senior business leaders to identify the right innovation model for their strategic objectives. I understand the complexities of business and the process of creativity, and can make innovation real and sustainable across your organization.
