INNOVATION FEATURE Managing Google’s Idea Factory As director of consumer Web products Marissa Mayer is a champion of innovation. She favors new product launches that are early and often. She joined Google in early 1999 as a programmer when the workforce totaled 20. By 2007 Google had 5,700 employees with expected sales of $16 billion. How Google Innovates The search leader has earned a reputation as one of the most innovative companies in the world of technology. A few of the ways Google hatches new ideas:

THE IDEAS LIST Anyone at Google can post thoughts for new technologies of businesses on an ideas mailing list, available companywide for input and vetting. But beware: Newbies who suggest familiar or poorly thought-out ideas can face an intellectual pummeling. OPEN OFFICE HOURS Think back to your professors’ office hours in college. That’s pretty much what key managers, including Mayer, do two or three times a week, to discuss new ideas. One success born of this approach was Google’s personalized home page. BIG BRAINSTORMS As it has grown, Google has cut back on brainstorming sessions. Mayer still has them eight times a year, but limits hers to 100 engineers. Six concepts are pitched and discussed for 10 minutes each. The goal: to build on the initial idea with at least one complementary idea per minute. ACQUIRE GOOD IDEAS Although Google strongly prefers to develop technology in-house, it has also been willing to snap up small companies with interesting initiatives. In 2004 it bought Keyhole, including the technology that let Google offer sophisticated maps with satellite imagery.

FINDING CUSTOMER VALUE OPPORTUNITIES Customer value analysis Objective is to identify needs for: New products Improvements to existing products Improvements in production processes Improvements in supporting services

Customer Expectations Customer Satisfaction Gap OPPORTUNITIES (1) New Products (2) Improvements (3) New and Improved Processes Actual Product Performance

The Evolution of the Creative Company STEP 1 Technology and information become commoditized and globalized. Suddenly, the advantage of making things “faster, cheaper, better” diminishes, and profit margins decline. STEP 2 With commoditization, core advantages can be shipped abroad. Outsourcing to India, China, and Eastern Europe sends a growing share of manufacturing and even the Knowledge Economy overseas. STEP 3 Design Strategy begins to replace Six Sigma as a key organizing principle. Design plays a key role in product differentiation, decision-making, and understanding the consumer experience.

STEP 4 Creative innovation becomes the key driver of growth. Companies master new design thinking and metrics and create products that address consumers’ unmet, and often unarticulated, desires. STEP 5 The successful Creative Corporation emerges, with new Innovation DNA. Winners build a fast-moving culture that routinely beats competitors because of a high success rate for innovation.

Characteristics of Successful Innovators Creating an Innovative Culture Leveraging Capabilities Selecting the Right Innovation Strategy STRATEGIC INITIATIVES Making Resource Commitments Developing and Implementing Effective New Product Processes

Define the areas of strategic focus: Product Scope Markets Technologies Include longer term discontinuous projects in the portfolio along with incremental projects.

NEW PRODUCT PLANNING PROCESS Customer Needs Analysis Screening and Evaluation Business Analysis Idea Generation Marketing Strategy Development Product Development Testing Commercialization

Achieving Cross-Functional Interaction and Coordination Operations Marketing Finance

Responsibility for New Product Planning Coordination of new product activities by a high-level general manager Inter-functional coordination by a team of new product planning representatives Creation of a project task force responsible for new product planning Designation of a new products manager to coordinate planning between departments Formation of matrix structure for integration new product planning with business functions Creation of a permanent design center

IDEA GENERATION Idea search: targeted or open-ended? How extensive and aggressive? What specific sources are best for generating a regular flow of new product ideas? How can new ideas be obtained from customers? Where will responsibility for the new product ideas search be placed? What are potential threats from alternative (or disruptive) technologies?

An Innovation Champion in Action at GE Beth Comstock calls herself “a little bit of the crazy, wacky one” at corporate headquarters. And it’s an apt description when you realize she works at General Electric Co. Comstock, 44, is charged with transforming GE’s culture, famously devoted to process, engineering, and financial controls, to one that’s more agile and creative. Chairman and CEO Jeffrey R. Immelt tapped the former communications chief to become GE’s first-ever chief marketing officer almost three years ago. The job came with a critical twist: the goal of driving innovation through the company’s 300,000 plus ranks. “Creativity is still a word we’re wrestling with,” Comstock concedes. “It seems a bit undisciplined, a bit chaotic for a place like GE.” More comfortable territory is the term “imaginative problem-solving” – encouraging people to think “what if” – yet always with the aim of driving growth. One of Comstock’s first moves was to bring in anthropologists to audit GE’s culture. They came back with praise for GE’s famous work ethic but noted that employees wanted more “wow” – more discoveries from the company founded by Thomas Edison.

Comstock has a role whose importance is spreading throughout Big Business – that of innovation champion. She began by studying the best practices at companies such as Procter & Gamble, FedEx, and 3M. She brought in a raft of creativity consultants, futurists, and design gurus to lead sessions with different operations. Their names were jolting for GE types: Play, a Richmond (VA.) group that helps execs think differently, and Jump, based in San Mateo, CA., which researches how people use things. GE is expanding its army of designers to bring businesses closer to customers. And Comstock is staging “dreaming sessions” where Immelt, senior execs, and customers debate future market trends. Comstock concedes some managers view the workshops as a waste of time. “We have a long way to go,” she says. But for GE, there’s no turning back.
