Innovation

WHAT

Innovation translates ideas into commercial impact through structured, human-centred methods that de-risk creativity and align with strategy.

WHY

  • PwC’s Global Innovation Survey shows 80% of CEOs see innovation as critical to growth, yet only 6% are satisfied with outcomes.

  • McKinsey finds firms with formal innovation frameworks deliver 2.5x higher shareholder returns.

  • Forrester highlights that human-centred design increases product adoption by 30%.

HOW – Harmonic's Approach

  • Innovation Frameworks: Apply proven methodologies such as the Double Diamond and LUMA Institute frameworks to guide the innovation process from problem framing to solution delivery.

  • Human-Centred Design (HCD): Focus all innovation efforts on serving real human needs, ensuring solutions are desirable, feasible, and viable.

  • Looking: Use exploratory methods like ethnographic research, customer shadowing, and contextual inquiry to discover unmet or latent needs.

  • Understanding: Conduct synthesis workshops, affinity mapping, and “How Might We” ideation to define opportunity spaces and reframe challenges.

  • Making: Rapidly develop low-fidelity prototypes, test concepts iteratively with users, and refine based on feedback to de-risk innovation.

  • Innovation Governance: Define ownership, funding, and feedback loops for managing innovation portfolios and aligning with business strategy.

  • Capability Uplift: Coach internal teams to embed innovation practices, build cross-functional collaboration, and foster a culture of experimentation.
