Strategic Innovation Canvas

Main Outcomes

Focus

Superclusters are complex structures with a massive amount of members, stakeholders, and partners. When developing a new Supercluster strategy, make sure to focus on the Why, Mission, and  Ambitions.

Targets

A strategy is nothing without execution. What better drives execution than metrics? Clearly define each Focus Area, in years 1, 3, and 5. Test these with the Board and key members.

Alignment

Use the Supercluster Strategy Intro to develop a deep understanding and alignment within your team. Involve the leadership team, Board, Advisory Board, staff, and innovation groups in the process. Use this to define a clear road map, clear targets, and deep alignment.

Use Case

With three types of clusters, most start out as EC, or Emerging Clusters. Few can rightfully claim to be born an Innovation Supercluster. Working with an Emerging Cluster with huge aspirations, we introduced The Supercluster Strategy Intro. Suddenly challenged to define their long-term ambitions, then required to define five focus areas, with matching targets for years 1, 3, and 5, the leadership team struggled to collectively think big enough.

It took the larger part of a two-day strategy workshop to crack the code and actually be able to define a five-year Innovation Supercluster strategy. Using the Supercluster Strategy Intro, the team suddenly got a one-page visual framework to help chart out the journey they had set out on.
