Capability ExpertiseStrategy & InnovationInnovation Methodology Assessment & Design
From an applied strategy perspective, the foundation for successful innovation is doing things the “right” way. And doing things the right way means adopting a formal innovation and new product development methodology, not haphazardly placing bets on seemingly good ideas and seeing how things go. By helping you adopt four characteristics of a successful innovation methodology (customer-focused, holistic, lean, and gated), Trexin can help you establish a productive innovation approach that increases your ability to execute business strategies that are contingent on sustaining or disruptive innovations.
