The DNA of Disruptive Innovators • What makes innovators different from the rest of us? • Is the ability to think creatively generic? • Are innovators right brained? • Roughly 25 percent to 40 percent of what we do innovatively stems from generic • “Think different” and “Act different”: Ones ability to generate innovative ideas is not merely a function of the mind, but also a function of behavior.
Innovator’s DNA: Five Discovery Skills • Associational thinking • Questioning • Observing • Networking • Experimenting
Part one: The DNA of Disruptive Innovators Behavioral Skills Courage to Innovate Cognitive skill to synthesize novel inputs Questioning Challenges to status quo Observing Innovative Business Idea Associational thinking Taking risks Networking Experimenting
Associating -Innovators connect the dots to make unexpected connections. They combine pieces of what may seem disparate pieces of information until "surprise - you've got this innovative new idea." “Creativity is connecting things.” Steve Jobs, founder and CEO, Apple Inc. -Example: Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple, and calligraphy classes and this eventually led to his company producing user-friendly, graphics-based Macs.
Questioning - Innovators are consummate questioners who show a passion for inquiry. Their queries frequently challenges the status quo. - Questions focus on two areas: 1.Describing the Territory 2.Disrupting the Territory “Question the unquestionable” Ratan Tata, chairman, Tata Group -Example: Steve Jobs and Computer fan; why does a computer need a fan? Which resulted in manufacturing of quietest and smallest personal computer ever made-Apple II.
Observing -Innovators are intense observers. They fully watch the world around them- including customers, products, services, technologies and companies- and their observation help them gain insight into an ideas for new way of doing things. -Vuia de: sense of seeing something for the first time, even if you have actually seen it many times before. “Observation is the big game changer in our company” Scott Cook, founder, Intuit -Example: Ratan Tata, chairman of India Tata Group, observed families riding scooters in India and gained a powerful insight that inspired the world’s cheapest car, the Tata Nano.
Networking Rather than simply doing social networking, innovators spend a lot of time and energy finding and testing ideas through a diverse network of individuals who vary widely in their background and perspectives.
Experimenting - Good experimenters understand that although questioning, observing , and networking provides data about past ( what was ) and the present (what is), experimenting is best suited for generating data on what might work in the future. “I haven’t failed…I’ve just found 10,000 ways that do not work.” Thomas Edison • -Three ways that innovators experiments • Try out new experiences • Take apart products, processes, and Ideas • Test ideas through pilots and prototypes • - Example: Michael Dell taking his new computer apart in his sixteenth birthday.
The DNA of Disruptive organizations • Business week ranking from 2005 to 2009, based on a Boston Consulting Group survey of executives who voted on the companies. • Rank the companies based on future innovation rather than past performance: • Growth and innovation premium: the proportion of a company’s market value that cannot be accounted for from cash flows of its current products or businesses in its current markets. It is the premium market gives these companies because investors expect the companies to be able to generate high profit from them.
The DNA of Innovative Companies People • Companies are often lead by innovative executives who excelled at discovery • Monitor and maintain an adequate proportion of high discovery-Quotient people in every management level, functional area, and decision making stage of the innovation process Philosophies Processes • Processes explicitly encourage employees to associate, question, observe, network, and experiment • Processes are designed to hire, train, reward, and promote discovery driven people • Philosophy 1: Innovative is everyone’s job-not just R&D • Philosophy 2:Disruption is part of our innovation portfolio • Philosophy 3: Deploy small, properly organized innovation project teams. • Philosophy 4:Take smart risk in pursuit of innovation.

Innovator Dilemma The following slides are derived from ClaytonM.Christensen’s
The Innovator’s Solution • Historically, less than 10% of companies have been able to sustain for more than a few years the growth that creates above-average shareholder returns. • Historically, it has seemed impossible to predict which innovations will successfully create new waves of growth, and which will fail. • Only 20% of venture capital–funded start-ups succeed • Only 25% of new products launched by established companies succeed. This need not be the case. Managers can use sound theories to guide the key decisions required to build successful growth businesses.
Ten questions in building new growth businesses • 1. How can we beat the competition? • 2. Which customers should we target? • 3. What products will our customers want to buy? • 4. How should we distribute to and communicate with our customers? • 5. Which things should our company do, and which should our can partners and suppliers do? • 6. How can we avoid commoditization? • 7. Who should be on our management team? • 8. What is the best organizational structure for this business? • 9. How can we know when to change course? • 10. Whose investment capital will help, and whose might hurt?
