Background
Context
on
the
InnovaBon
Leaders
Analysis


For
the
past
ten
years
we
have
analysed
the
innovaBon

performance
of
over
1500
firms
and
profiled
the
leaders

Eight
key
areas
are
examined
as
input
into
the
annual
assessments:

1.  OrganisaBonal
culture
and
supporBng
structure

2.  Strategic
focus
on
innovaBon
and
its
role
in
driving
corporate
growth

3.  Number
of
major
new
product
launches
and
relaBve
success
raBos

4.  Growth
in
revenues,
profits
and
market
capitalisaBon

5.  Average
margin
per
product
or
customer

6.  Investment
in
innovaBon-‐related
acBviBes
such
as
R&D
and
markeBng

7.  Brand
value
and
human
capital
growth

8.  Peer
review
from
within
the
sector


At
the
core
of
the
analysis,
for
each
sector
we
look
at
a

raBo
of
innovaBon
impact
to
the
resources
being
deployed

Together this provides what we believe to be the most accurate assessment of current innovation impact


Ten
years
ago,
the
capabiliBes
that
made
a
diﬀerence
in

innovaBon
were
clearly
idenBﬁable
and
a
focus
for
all

The
tradi*onal
areas
for
a0en*on
have
been:

1.  Clear
strategic
focus
on
building
and
exploiBng
core
competences

2.  Using
mulB-‐funcBonal
teams
to
drive
innovaBon
across
the
organisaBon

3.  AdopBng
stage-‐gate
processes
to
manage
new
product
development

4.  Engaging
the
voice
of
the
customer
and
new
sources
of
consumer
insight

These are now hygiene factors – everyone uses similar approaches so they make no real difference


In
recent
years,
InnovaBon
Leaders
have
variously
been

developing
new
capabiliBes
to
shi
performance
up
a
gear

Recent
areas
of
focus
include:

•  Open
InnovaBon
especially
around
external
sourcing
of
innovaBon

•  Strategic
collaboraBon
between
companies
across
sector
boundaries

•  Engaging
customers
in
the
heart
of
the
innovaBon
process

•  Using
longer
term
foresight
to
be]er
inform
on
emerging
opportuniBes

These will also become commodities so organisations are looking at the new leaders for inspiration


We
assess
25
sectors
and
cover
a
wide
range
of
businesses

we
can

the
successes
in
