What’s Holding You Back?

Path to Empowerment.

Innovation methods and technology are not strategies. Until there is a strategy, they are a distraction that keeps the program busy with Innovation Theater until executives grow impatient and close the innovation program down.

Innovation Theater.

Most organizations try to solve their engagement problem by creating innovation theater, deploying a variety of ad hoc, disjointed, destined-to-fail approaches. Rarely do these activities produce meaningful, long-term results.

Tools are not Strategies.

Technology Agnostic.

Our approach is technology agnostic. Our solutions have been successfully deployed in conjunction with Planview Spigit, IdeaScale, Brightidea, SharePoint, innosabi idea, CrowdVector, and other internal custom built solutions. This means we can leverage tools and technologies that have already been purchased and deployed. Due to strength of features and unique value that our approach can deliver, we recommend CrowdVector when no existing solution is in place or an existing solution is struggling to provide value. However, we are always willing to deploy our methods using whatever tools are already in place. We are eager to expand our experience with other technologies in order to identify new ways of creating value for organizations.
