Innovation Mode 2.0

Innovation Mode 2.0 presents unique insights and advice on defining and managing the innovation transformation journey. Using novel ideas, examples and best practices, it empowers management executives at all levels to drive cultural, technological and organizational changes toward innovation.

Every company talks about being innovative, but in reality, most struggle to turn their innovation commitments into real breakthrough results. What separates truly innovative organizations is their unique culture and their ability to systematically spot and pursue opportunities. Innovation Mode 2.0 explains what these organizations do differently and offers a comprehensive blueprint that reveals how artificial intelligence revolutionizes every aspect of innovation—from opportunity discovery and validation to rapid implementation of MVPs and in-market business experimentation.

Innovation Mode 2.0 offers a practical roadmap built on the author’s two decades of experience in startup, consulting, and global technology companies. It provides a thorough innovation master plan featuring over 70 actionable recommendations across six progressive transformation phases – from building high-performing innovation teams and creating a special culture of innovation to implementing AI-powered frameworks and a scalable corporate innovation function.

Whether you are a CxO seeking insights on organizational design for innovation, an innovation leader building next-generation capabilities, or a technology leader driving AI transformation, you will find invaluable answers, strategic advice, novel AI use cases, and practical guidance. The book provides the frameworks, tools, and step-by-step guidance needed to establish a high-performance “innovation engine” capable of thriving in the AI era by delivering transformational products and services.
