Developing more intrapreneurs – or, employees who can dream up feasible innovations for operationalization and commercialization within the existing business model – is a significant goal of every innovation function. When companies have more self-identified innovators, they see more and better innovations in their roadmaps. Doing so requires a deep-seeded innovation culture that fosters innovation-supporting behaviors all the time, not just at the outset of a new initiative. Start by inviting every employee to share ideas consistently, and provide venues, rituals, guidelines, and feedback loops for idea sharing. Why does it work? Our research shows that when employees narrate their ideas to others, they are more likely to see the potential in their innovation and feel emboldened as an innovator. More innovators = more innovative ideas.
Innovation storytelling is the art and science of communicating strategic narratives and personal stories about new product developments, systems improvements, and groundbreaking new thinking. How can storytelling build innovation cultures? When companies engage in innovation storytelling at the cultural level, innovation teams flourish. Our research shows that innovation teams that practice storytelling enjoy improved alignment on innovation initiatives, improved collaboration, and increased sales and leads, to name a few.
Communication is a cornerstone of innovation management – innovators spend up to 30% of their time writing and communicating throughout the stage gate process. But less than half of them feel they are doing that work effectively and efficiently. Why? A lack of resources, time, skills, and support from leadership. That’s one reason why Narratize also offers Innovation Storytelling Training™ in the Era of GenAI. Innovators will gain confidence in communication, tools and resources to do it better and faster, and a stronger baseline knowledge of GenAI as an emerging technology to boot.
