Innovation Management

New products and services are often the lifeblood of organizations, particularly those that operate in highly regulated industries. COALITION have a team of expert Professional Facilitators that can support companies in the collaborative development and execution of Innovation Management plans.

COALITION’s approach to Innovation Management is to deeply embed

collaboration into each step of the process to identify, develop, and

implement novel ideas to create value within client organizations. The full

spectrum of Innovation Management encompasses the management of all

activities and processes associated with innovation, from the generation of

new concepts to the final delivery of a new product, service, or internal

process. COALITION have a team of domain-expert Professional

Facilitators that can support the development and management of

Innovation Management plans to assist organizations operating in heavily

regulated industries.

COALITION’s Professional Facilitators can provide an unbiased viewpoint,

free from internal politics and preconceived notions whilst maintaining

absolute discretion and confidentiality. They bring a wealth of knowledge

gained from expertise in the targeted innovation field and also from a range of other highly regulated industries. As such, they are able to introduce best practices and lessons learned from many other innovation projects.

Our Professional Facilitation team design and conduct highly collaborative innovation workshops, brainstorming sessions, and focus groups that encourage creative thinking and cross-functional collaboration among employees. They also help in setting up or refining the innovation process, including ideation, selection, prototyping, and implementation phases, ensuring that the process is well-structured.

 

COALITION’s Professional Facilitators seek to foster a culture of collaborative innovation by encouraging openness to experimentation, facilitating knowledge sharing, and promoting an environment where innovation is rewarded. They can also assist in navigating and mediating any conflicts that may arise during the innovation process, ensuring that team dynamics are moulded to promote, rather than hinder, progress.

 

To ensure that outcomes are optimal, our Professional Facilitators provide collaborative critical assessments and feedback on innovation outcomes. With great expertise in operating in highly regulated industries, the aim of such feedback is to ensure resultant innovation-generated projects are in alignment with client company's overall goals and have clear regulatory routes to commercialization.

 

COALITION have a network of contacts, including potential partners, researchers, industry experts, and investors as potential connections for collaboration or support. Additionally, our Professional Facilitators can assist in identifying both internal and external resources, such as funding, expertise, and technology, that are necessary for innovation projects.

 

COALITION’s key focus and greatest strength is to encourage and embed collaboration throughout an organization’s Innovation management process. They can also provide additional skill, structure and a fresh perspective to an organization's innovation initiatives, driving more effective and efficient results.

 

Once multiple innovation outcomes have been defined, COALITION’s Professional Facilitators can significantly aid in the prioritization process by applying their expertise and objectivity to help organizations focus efforts on the most promising initiatives. With deep expertise in operating in highly regulated fields, our Professional Facilitators work with client organizations to define the criteria that will be used to evaluate and prioritize projects. These criteria might consider strategic fit, market potential, technological feasibility, regulatory risks, resource requirements, and alignment with stakeholder requirements.

 

Our team of Professional Facilitators can manage highly collaborative prioritization workshops built on diversity to help client teams reach a consensus on which projects or ideas to prioritize. They guide the discussion, encourage participation, and ensure that the conversation stays on track. When disagreements arise about which initiatives to prioritize, as impartial participants, COALITION’s Facilitators can mediate discussions and help teams to navigate conflicts, ensuring that decisions are made based on the prioritization criteria rather than personal agendas.

 

COALITION’s Professional Facilitators role in leveraging an external viewpoint and specialized skills, is crucial in helping client organizations to make informed, strategic, and unbiased decisions about which innovation projects to pursue. This can lead to more efficient use of resources and better alignment of innovation efforts with the organization’s long-term strategic goals.

 

To further enhance the service provided by our domain-expert Facilitators, COALITION can also assist in the development of Intellectual Property (IP) strategies. In highly regulated industries it is far from ideal to have to alter designs of formulations at any stage of the development process to circumvent potentially salient prior art. COALITION’s IP proficient Professional Facilitator team are able to assess IP landscapes and ensure that potential infringement risk is considered as early in projects as possible. Additionally, COALITION can assist in the assessment and facilitated development of strategically targeted IP to provide commercial advantage once products are able to be licensed for sale.
