I know you all came here to hear some answers…
… but let me start with a few facts and a question
So, the question is:
Do we need another discussion on innovation?

innovation by the only measure that matters – Value Creation

The incumbency curse is real: Large public enterprises face
many challenges in being repeatable innovators
• Stable – and somewhat frozen – business models
• Complex regulatory environment – and resulting risk aversion
Addressing these challenges one by one is a losing proposition –
A Change in DNA is Required
4
• Legacy infrastructure and processes – and significant costs to re-platform
• Accumulated complexity – in markets, channels, infrastructure, products and services
• Culture of a large organization – with its premium on current performance and business
stability
• Complex organizational structure – with multiple operating companies, P&L owners, decision-
makers, and interfaces
• Organizational clock speed measured in months and quarters – rather than in days and weeks
Source: A.T. Kearney analysis
The old innovation methods will deliver the old innovation
results – The new innovation DNA is required
Incubate with gusto at scale
– don’t just play… do
Venture wildly – for a meaningful
place in the ecosystem
Run multiple business
models in parallel
Establish real constraints…
couple with real rewards
Drive for ecosystem dominance
first, financial returns second
Play the long
game, but fast
Innovate deliberately,
with clear strategy
