Description

In an ever-evolving business world, the quest for sustained, impactful growth drives companies into a maze of challenges. Conventional beliefs like static market boundaries and a lack of systematic approaches often constrain the pursuit of radical innovations. However, there's a beacon of hope: the Blue Ocean methodology. This course, deeply integrated with insights from Innovation360, is designed to equip participants with robust strategies, allowing them to harness the vast potential of uncharted market spaces.

Module by module, participants are immersed in a blend of Blue Ocean Strategy principles and the transformative framework of Innovation360. From understanding the Red versus Blue Ocean dynamics to exploring Value Innovation, each lesson is a step towards reimagining market boundaries. Participants will delve deep into the 'Wheel of Innovation', a tool pioneered by Innovation360. This wheel is instrumental in distinguishing between internal (introversion-focused) and external (extroversion-focused) projects. By aligning strategic aspiration with capabilities, leadership, and personas, the left side of the wheel emphasizes internal projects, while the right zeroes in on external endeavors like services and business models. Real-world case studies further illuminate how market leaders, using both Blue Ocean and Innovation360 tools, have charted unique paths, delivering unparalleled value without sacrificing competitiveness.

As the course concludes, it's not just about knowledge but transformation. Participants will master the art of integrating the Blue Ocean Strategy with the Innovation360 framework, ensuring maximum organizational readiness for innovation. Through empirical insights, hands-on tools, and interactive sessions, this curriculum offers a roadmap for companies to achieve groundbreaking differentiation and to redefine their industry's horizons confidently.

I really appreciated the practical guidance offered throughout this course. After taking this course I feel more clear about how to prioritize budget for different horizons of my blue ocean strategy and I have several tools that I can use to thoroughly think through managing S curves and going behind ideas and invention. Once clear challenge for me was appreciating that incremental innovation is less profitable than blue ocean innovation. A clear idea of all of the elements at play can help you ride the waves of change without compromising creativity.

A good overview on what a Blue Ocean Strategy is and how it can be helpful in innovation work. Now I am curious to find more information on how to acctually go about the process to creat one. Maybe that could be a follow up. :)

I find this course is a great overview of the Radical Innovation approach to creating Blue Ocean. It is quite challenging to bring all the knowledge of Blue Ocean Strategy, Shift, and Beyond Disruption plus huge knowledge and wisdom in Innovation 360. However, it exceeds my expectations. Thank you.
