How To Build An Innovation Lab
It’s often easier to make something 10 times better than it is to make it 10% better.
And we need 10x gains to solve some of the biggest problems facing humankind
ASTRO TELLER ON MOONSHOTS
has made a strategic commitment to re-establish the relationship it has with customers and communities
that means everything is up for grabs
nothing is sacred
not so stupid questions:
what is innovation?
what is a lab?
Bouncing ideas around is not innovation
One of the reasons innovation fails to take hold in many organisations is a focus on
internal reporting and certainty rather than finding, testing and exploring
it’s about deliberately thinking of - and applying - new ways to tackle
problems or resolve unmet need
Does the world really need another?
Nesta Global LabMap
…a unique kind of laboratory – one that creates a dialogue, listening carefully with an open mind
to all the voices, and then tries to translate them, mix them, and amplify them to prototype and
develop alternatives.
Do you need an Innovation Lab? Not necessarily
Does your organisation need an embedded approach to innovation
and testing that is measurable? What do you think?!
NETWORKING
(dreaming stuff)
REALIsING
(ideas into action)
EXPERIMENTING
(aiming at breaking)
CONNECTING
(holding s**t together)
Lab Skill Sets
Develop Concept
Build Prototype
Test Assumptions
Evaluate & Iterate
Testing and piloting
have been natural
additions to our
innovation pipeline
observation one...
PROMOTES QUALITY
CONTROL
Bromford has
lots of big ideas
EXPECTATION
REALITY
NOT ALL IDEAS ARE CREATED
EQUAL
because...
observation two?
WIDER RANGE OF
SOLUTIONS
progressing ideas requires
PROTOTYPES
TESTING
progressing prototypes requires
considered design +
thorough documentation
observation three!
> CHANCE OF
BREAKTHROUGHS
OK TO FAIL =
OK TO TEST RADICAL IDEAS
OK TO FAIL =
OVERCOME INDIVIDUAL BIASES
✓✓ X
Wait….what?!?
SO WHAT IS A
PILOT?
Test One
Test Two
Test Three
Test Four
Test Five
Test Six
Test Seven
IF TESTS HELP SELECT
COMPONENTS OF SERVICE...
PILOTS MEASURE COMPLETE
SERVICE
OUR HANDPRINTS ARE ALL OVER: BROMFORD DEAL.

How To Build An Innovation Lab

Editor's Notes

  1. Our directors, service leaders, scheme managers have ideas all the time in a bid to continually improve their areas.
  2. We don’t know how our customers would react to any service. There’s countless examples of poorly conceived plans being rolled out. That’s because... Our problem is with implementation - or more to the point, understanding that it’s not just what we do, but the way we do it that can add value or simply add cost. A great idea can be made bad for a whole host of reasons.
  3. ...and the value of testing different ideas and concepts is stopping bad ideas bleeding into business as usual.
  4. Product design is never as simple as A-to-B. It is progressive and iterative, working from early models to more advanced proofs of concepts.
  5. Having tangible prototypes means you can start testing them for fitness for purpose or proof of concept. But, considering we’re talking about services rather than product, how do we build prototypes and test them?
  6. OK for product design, but how do we make services more tangible? We’ve experimented with a number of options, but found the simplest way to be a service offer document.
  7. As you can imagine - creating a complete service is quite resource intensive. So why would we jump straight to piloting if we don’t know if the service (these stacked blocks) would hold? We wouldn’t - unless we were bidding for tenders/partnerships (but make sure this mindset doesn’t leak back into the business).
  8. In fact - why would you ever jump to a pilot as a first stance??
