Innovation and Performance
What is innovation?
“Companies achieve competitive advantage
through acts of innovation. They approach
innovation in its broadest sense, including both
new technologies & new ways of doings things”
- Michael Porter
(emphasis added)
Trott_innovation management overview.ppt

6
Innovation has to be actively managed:
“Innovation is the specific tool of entrepreneurs, the
means by which they exploit change as an
opportunity for a different business or service. It is
capable of being presented as a discipline, capable
of being learned, capable of being practiced”
- Peter Drucker
(emphasis added)

7
Innovation Management
The management of all the activities involved in
the process of idea generation, technology
development, manufacturing and marketing of a
new (or improved) product or manufacturing
process or equipment

8
Some ‘stylised facts’ about the relationships between
innovation and performance:
• Relationships between R&D, patents, new products and

performance are strongest at the industry level, weakest at the
firm level
• Returns from process innovation are typically four times those
from product innovation
• R&D expenditure stronger than patents in predicting
performance
• At firm level, R&D and new products both associated with
higher value-added and market to book values

9
• Returns from use of new technology higher than
from its generation
• Highest variability in performance is at firm level
• Senior management typically accounts for 15-50% of
variance

Innovation has an inherent variability, but rate of
success can be improved through better & different
management:
• 85% of new ideas never reach a market

• 60% of R&D projects are market failures
• 40% of consumer products & services fail
• 20% of business products & services fail

11
Some explanations for the observed wide variation
in the relationships between innovation and
performance:
• Scale – of technological inputs – critical mass; and

market value of commercial outputs – ‘complementary
assets’
• Opportunity – ‘spill-overs’ within sectors and between
firms
• Management – differences in cognition, co-ordination
and control

12
Models and Modes of Innovation
Dimensions of ‘innovation space’:
• product – changes in the things (products/services) which
an organization offers,
• process – changes in the ways in which they are created
and delivered
• position – changes in the context in which the
products/services are introduced
• paradigm – changes in the underlying mental & business
models which frame what the organization does

13
Creating and Capturing Value
“lack of technological knowledge is rarely the
cause of innovation failures…the main
problems arise in organization and, more
specifically, in co-ordination and control… four
mechanisms identified by earlier analysts of the
innovating firms: competition, cognition, co-
ordination and control”
- Keith Pavitt
14
Managers with ‘mature Managers with ‘dynamic
perceptions’ believe that: perceptions’ believe that:
• the industry is stable with
• there is potential for
slow demand growth &
incremental changes in change, new ways of
technology operating, & new
strategies
• profitability is achieved
by process improvement • value is created through
and product innovation in positions
differentiation and paradigms

15
‘mature’ managers view: ‘dynamic’ managers view:
• profitability is determined • profitability is determined

by industry, & is limited in by the firm. Mature
mature industries industries offer many
• market share is critical opportunities.
• dominance demands • Market share is reward for
extensive resources creating value
• effectiveness, not extent of
resources counts

16
Choice of strategy (& luck) are more important than

industry:
• choice of industry 8.35%

• choice of strategy 46.4%
• parent company 0.8%
• unexplained (e.g. luck) 44.5%

Advantages of innovation in position or paradigm:
• Reputation as a pioneer
• Early learning curve benefits
• Establish barriers to entry e.g. Design, patents, standards
• Dominate new supply & distribution networks
• Earn 'monopoly' profits
But, beware regulatory & demand uncertainty, e.g. burden
of educating users

20
Conclusions:
Conclusions and implications from observation and
research:
• Relationships between R&D, patents, new products
and performance are strongest at the industry & sector
level, but weakest at the firm level – but, management
& strategy can make a difference
• Too much emphasis on technological innovation,
process improvement & product differentiation
produces low returns

21
Conclusions:
• Greater focus on a wider range of innovation e.g.
positional and paradigm innovation has potential
to improve returns from innovation
• This suggests active search for external technology
‘spill-overs’ (inputs) and exploitation of commercial
‘complementary assets’ (outputs)
• (Re) combination & integration of different types of
innovation important – role of international
alliances & corporate venturing to help identify,
create & exploit new businesses and services
