A recent IBM global study cited unproductive culture as the one obstacle to innovation. Organizations that have a culture which supports innovation are often customer-focussed, values-driven and strategically directed. They ensure that their operating strategies are developed through interactions with employees, customers, partners, vendors, suppliers and consultants. They review market trends and identify, through benchmarking, what is required to out-peform their competition.
One of the first actions of the Innovation Steering Committee will be to identify the organization's current state of innovation and the receptiveness to change. The fastest way to do this is by undertaking an organization-wide innovation culture assessment.
Business Improvement Architect's Innovation Culture Assessment™ (ICA™) will help you to develop an innovation culture that addresses the question often asked by senior executives, "Why aren't we better at innovation?" It identifes the current state of innovation throughout the entire organization and provides you with the actions required to re-shape your culture to become more innovative. Changing culture is an exciting journey. it is a journey that will require you to stay the course since change is constant, it never ends. But the journey will be as rewarding as the destination.
