Unlocking Innovation: Overcoming Corporate Challenges
As corporate innovation leaders strive to drive corporate innovation within their organizations, they often encounter various obstacles along the way. Here are the top 5 most common challenges we have identified.
Definition & alignment: Lack of clarity on how to initiate and navigate the implementation of corporate innovation within the company and defining strategies that foster innovation while still aligning with the company's goals.
Team building: Uncertainty regarding the ideal team structure to drive corporate innovation, including the use of internal or external teams, identifying required skills and roles, and sourcing new talent.
Result measurement: Difficulty in defining suitable metrics and establishing realistic Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that allow innovative ideas to evolve as well as in measuring the performance of the innovation team.
Sponsors: Difficulty in finding internal sponsors who can provide support and resources for corporate innovation initiatives, while also contributing to creating a culture within the organization that is open to adopt the value and benefits of corporate innovation.
A focus on planning, not execution: While planning is crucial for any business, companies often become fixated on creating a flawless plan. However, the path to building a successful initiative is rarely straightforward from the star and many require constant action, experimentation, and strong feedback and learning loops.
At Rokk3r, we know that this may be challenging, which is why our mission is to empower corporate leaders to navigate the path of innovation with ease. Contact us at info@rokk3r.com to learn more.
Rokk3r Unplugged
Alliance with Banco Davivienda, Red Sofa Inc. and JOVEN360
We've had the pleasure of guiding over 200 entrepreneurs in El Salvador through our program 10xU powered by Rokk3r.
Throughout the program, our Managing Partner, Lorenzo de Leo, led virtual and live sessions and mentored participating companies who showed a high level of commitment. On November 3rd and 4th, Lorenzo had the opportunity to visit El Salvador and connect in person with the EspacioTec entrepreneurs. During his visit, he offered:
A closing program Masterclass on "How to professionally, effectively, and efficiently present your project to investors, partners, clients, and the general public."
Personalized pitch training and pitch feedback sessions to the 10 EspacioTec finalists, who will present their projects at the closing event of this #DIATEC initiative.
Our metrics speak of progress and learning. With an extraordinary engagement percentage of 87.5%, participants have significantly progressed through the Vision, Execution, Growth, and Capital stages. This percentage reflects the effort and dedication of all involved, and we are thrilled about the success of this initiative.
We thank EspacioTec, Banco Davivienda, Red Sofa Inc., and JOVEN 360 for making this initiative a reality.
