  11. When to Engage How we might screen a new product found by a technology entrepreneur • Process • Tech. entrepreneur finds a promising product by initial screening • Log the product into our online using a template that helps organize certain facts about the product • What is it? • How does it meet our business needs? • Are its patents available? • Promote the product to specific managers in relevant lines of business • Gauge the product’s business potential • Test in consumer panels

  12. Push the Culture • Organization isn’t behind the program!! Deeply centralized and internally focused ↓ Had to nurture an internal culture change while developing systems for making connections • Two Broad Goals • Make sure that the best ideas, • wherever they come from, rise to the surface • Exertsteady pressure on the culture

  13. Adapt or Die Connect and Develop will become the dominant innovation model in the 21st century. To succeed, C&D must be driven by the top leaders in the organization. Don’t postpone crafting a C&D strategy, and don’t approach the process incrementally.
