In my decade-plus years working with corporate innovation leaders, I’ve seen a variety of frameworks to explain what we mean by “innovation.” The most enduring of these has been McKinsey’s Three Horizons model – although there are plenty of others. These models – powerful though they are – have always left me wanting more. Based on recent conversations with a number of corporate R&D and Innovation leaders, there’s another lens I’ve begun using.

Instead of one centralized authority having a ledger of transactions, everyone holds the ledger, and when a new transaction happens, everyone’s ledger is updated.

Strategy and its implementation are wide concepts that cover a lot of ground, and although pretty much everyone intuitively agrees that a) having a good strategy, and b) implementing it well, are obviously good things for an organization, it's not always easy

The more we embrace change and recognize innovation demands more of our time, the more we must seek out knowledge that ‘feeds’ innovation.
