Accelerating and improving new product development processes
“What I loved about working with the Strategos
team is that we were able to wrestle through the politics of multiple
innovation processes, management styles, and opinions to land on one strategically
grounded, disciplined innovation process that the entire organization
is now committed to.”
A disciplined process for innovation
“The process leverages the “hearts
and minds” of your own talent, tapping into their passion for the
business and their deep understanding of the category, company competences,
and capabilities. What’s more, it provides the organization with
a lasting set of “tools” to work through the approach, allowing
the process to live well beyond the initial project and project team.”
“One of the most powerful “ah-ha’s”
from the process is the focus on breaking down the key business assumptions
of an idea, and testing those assumptions early on to better manage risk.
Another very powerful element of the process is that it allows the team
to create “gardens” – richly populated portfolios –
of ideas that can be farmed for years. This enables you to avoid the very
common trap of banking everything on “the one big idea,” and
gives the team a place to go back should that idea prove not to be so
big.”
The Strategos people
“The associates at Strategos are smart, team-players
that have an art for opening the minds and imaginations of the corporate
world!”
