DRIVING INNOVATION FROM WITHIN

 

“Innovation” brings to our mind the maverick entrepreneur who quits their job, at unimaginable odds, to build a business on their own. But this entrepreneurial story is a myth.

 

As a successful entrepreneur, author, consultant and CEO, Kaihan Krippendorff argues that intrapreneurs – employees who incubate new businesses within corporations – have had a far greater impact on the world.

 

Nearly all of the most transformative innovations over the past three decades, from e-mail and the Internet to DNA sequencing and MRI scans, were introduced by employees who did not quit their jobs but instead took the challenge of innovating from within.

REALIZING TRAPPED VALUE ACROSS THE EIGHT DIMENSIONS OF INNOVATION
 

When we say “innovation” we almost always mean “product innovation.” We talk about research & development and possible new solutions to meet unmet needs.

 

This is a one-dimensional and incomplete approach to innovation. Dissect the most innovative companies of the last decade and you will see that great innovators disrupt their markets by reaching beyond the product.

 

Oftentimes their success rests on choices that have little to do with new products.
