Comment l'animer

  1. 1

    Draw a graph on a large whiteboard or poster. Label the X-axis as 'How to Win' (novelty of the product) and the Y-axis as 'Where to Play' (novelty of the market).

  2. 2

    Draw three curves on the graph to divide it into core, adjacent, and transformational innovation levels.

  3. 3

    Distribute sticky notes and pens to participants. Have them write down current initiatives and place them on the corresponding section of the matrix.

  4. 4

    Facilitate a discussion to align initiatives and unify team efforts towards shared goals.

Conseils

  • Ensure participants understand the definitions of core, adjacent, and transformational innovations before starting.

  • Encourage open discussion to surface different perspectives and eliminate competing initiatives.

  • Assign clear responsibilities to team members for follow-up actions.

Variantes

This method can be adapted for remote teams using digital tools like Miro or Mural to create the matrix online. You can also use this approach for long-term strategic planning by focusing on future innovation ambitions.
