Why is it important?

Today's customers no longer accept innovations which are just marginal changes at higher prices. These are renovations at best. To satisfy, delight and surprise your customers with true breakthrough value, you need to innovate differently. From working with new levers to adding more sensorimotor experiences, there are many ways to innovate. It's time you updated your own processes before losing to competition.

Perspectives

I am passionate about people; the consumers, customers and clients that spend their hard-earned cash on the products and services companies offer. While customers today are more demanding, most organisations co to ue to innovate in the same way and are meeting ever lower levels of success. It is time every business started innovTing from their customers' perspective and not just from their own technical skills.
