Innovation Capability Assessment
The process begins with our advisor spending time getting to understand you and your organisation. It is important for us to understand your goals and ambitions and the strategies you have in place to achieve them. This allows us to put the results of the survey we conduct into context and to tailor the analysis to meet your specific needs.
It is also important to understand the people and the roles they fulfil in the organisation both formal roles and informal roles. Together we will identify and engage a representative group of employees to involve in a survey of the organisation
We have a number of well regarded tools and analytical methods available to us through our close relationship with the Advanced Institute of Management, AIM Practice. These allow us to assess our clients’ capabilities and to recommend actions that are appropriate to them. One o fthese tools is the Innovation Fitness Test, (IFT).
AIM Practice is dedicated to selecting the very best in management research and translating it into products that can deliver real value to UK businesses.
The responses to the survey are analysed in the context of your business and we provide a report to your executive team. You will learn what your scores mean and how you can go on to become a truly innovative organisation.
Simply receiving a report is not sufficient. What are you going to do as a result to improve your business? As part of our approach Lark Consulting will facilitate a workshop with the appropriate decision makers in your organisation to review the insights provided in the report to identify and plan specific actions that will improve your innovative capability.
The final stage of our approach is to validate the results of the actions to test that your capability has improved and business benefits are being delivered.
