Michael Schoultz

Director, Business Development - Northrop Grumman

Making sure (before starting) that you know andunderstand the problem you are trying to solve.

You dont start an innovation project to do some image building

A clear goal is crucial -Define why you innovate!

1. One eye, one target

James Gardner

Director - Bondaii Ltd

The initial goal or target may change dramatically as

the project proceeds and better marketopportunities emerge.

1. One eye, one target

But be aware! Over time, during your project you might have to

redefine your target when the context changes. Be flexible!

As an innovation manager you cant do everything by yourself.

Involve experts at every step & yes, clients can be experts too!

3. Youre not the expert

Sebastian Grodzietzki

Head of Product Management - datango AG

Tip #1: Involving the target group (selected clients)in a very early stage.
