Inspired by Osterwalder's Canvas business model and McKinsey's classic 7S model, we have developed our own Compass of Innovation.
An important difference is, that in our model we work from the beating heart of your organization, where the essence is always central. In everything you do, you look at your intention and what you have to do here.
People and customers will connect to you from your being, not from your (outwardly oriented) proposition. The model has emerged from that core; more human, more natural, more sustainable.
Nine different I's can be distinguished in the compass. The heart of your organization can be found in the center: your intention and your intrinsic role. There are various softer I's: all factors that revolve around people, around contact, around connection. As an example, the internal organization and the way of leadership as well as the interaction with your own people and your network. There are also hard I's such as the business model, the innovations and the instruments you use. We talk about collaborations instead of purchasing partners and about drivers and core values from head, heart and hands instead of activities or imposed values.
The compass of innovation provides the opportunity to give direction to the most important components within your business operations in a human-driven, flexible and goal-oriented way. With respect for the current situation and with courage aimed at a sustainable future.
