520 At most companies, innovation is a top managerial
priority. Many managers look at successful innovators such
as Apple Inc. and Google Inc. with envy, wishing that
their companies could be half as innovative. To boost and
benchmark innovation, managers often use quantitative
performance indicators. Some measure innovation as results
or outcomes, such as sales from new products; others
measure innovation as a process, using metrics such as the
number of innovation projects; some rely on input metrics;
and still others focus on the innovation portfolio by
looking at factors such as the percentage of investments
in breakthrough projects versus line extensions. The key
managerial challenge, the authors argue, does not lie in
identifying metrics; there is no shortage to choose from.
Rather, they say, it is understanding the problem that
measurement should solve for the company and, based on
that insight, designing and implementing a useful
innovation measurement framework that is appropriate to
the organization's needs. To do this, managers need to
understand the innovation challenges the company faces,
how innovation is currently measured, and the extent to
which current measurement practices help or hinder efforts
to achieve innovation goals. Only then will they be able
to steer clear of common innovation measurement mistakes,
such as placing too much value on data at the expense of
meaning, or getting bogged down with too many measures
that provide contradictory advice and incentivize
employees to do the wrong things. The article contains a
step-by-step framework that allows managers to identify
whether their current innovation measurement practices
need to change and, if so, how to go about measuring
innovation more effectively. The framework is also aimed
at companies that do not currently measure innovation but
would like to start. The authors build their framework
around three phases designed to help companies improve
their innovation management practices: (A) assess current
innovation measurement practices, (B) improve core
innovation measurement practices, and (C) deploy the
improved innovation measurement practices. Each phase
involves distinct steps that companies should take. The
authors write that their framework "is designed to help
both individual executives and companies take control of
their innovation measurement and understand the critical
decisions, traps, and trade-offs involved - thereby
allowing organizations to realize t ...
