Innovation as planned and controlled change and dealing with changes by applying new procedures, introduction of new techniques, establishment of successful ideas and their commercial implementation are pillars of sustainable, long-term business success.
We support companies both
- in introducing, establishing and improving systematic innovation management approaches, innovation processes and mechanisms and
- at the content level, in designing, implementing and developing new, innovative areas, products and processes.
In our experience, business innovation is not just a quick press of a creativity button, perhaps supported by a few appropriate tools and approaches such as Design Thinking, but is based just as importantly on a corporate culture that promotes innovation, trust and appreciative handling of ideas.
We support companies in systematic encouragement of innovation and a structured approach, i.e. planning, control and monitoring of internal innovation (and culture!), starting with identifying and generating ideas by means of appropriate idea contribution and feedback processes, announcement of challenges, etc., through evaluation and development on the basis of transparent scoring approaches, to their successful implementation.
This includes continuous improvement management of what is already in place in the form of incremental innovation, as well as dealing with game changers and radical, disruptive innovation.
ResultONE is often called in to design and implement new, innovative areas in pioneering situations and to deliver challenging projects.
In an existing environment in particular, the introduction and implementation of innovations, new products and changes to processes often creates a lot of tension and is a challenge to the entire organization. An example of this is the introduction and establishment of agile methods in the context of system development, implementation of continuous integration/continuous deployment and DevOps principles, etc., and their linking to systems of legacy IT, which are often based on a waterfall method and follow defined release cycles.
In pioneering situations, procedure and organizational implementation are often unclear and in many cases the motivation and skill set of the employees involved is a critical factor. Goals are also often over-ambitious.
Particularly in pioneering situations, in managing transitional situations and in acting under difficult conditions in a VUCA environment (VUCA: volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity), ResultONE can provide crucial support.
Startups in particular can benefit from our expertise: we contribute our experience to the development and growth of startups, together with long-term perspectives on the growth and management of companies.
We provide missing expertise, offer consultancy support and help with operations e.g. in the design of short, medium and long-term IT development, roadmaps, etc., act as a sparring partner, ask critical questions and help to solve them, encourage a change of perspective and act as a business coach.
