it with customers. Only after that stage
should you go on to add more features.
This DevOps approach, well-known in the
software field, is equally applicable to
hardware. Talk to customers, find out their
needs, and then create specifications for
the project without over-engineering the
product. You make your prototype, and
then make the product better and better
based on the feedback.
That's how you innovate with efficiency and
agility. This multi-faceted approach isn't
always easy, as I would be the first to admit.
But given the payoff of effective innovation,
it's an approach worth striving for.
TAKEAWAYS
* Being innovative requires identifying emerging trends and evolving customer
concerns; shifting your focus from products to customer outcomes; developing
collaborative relationships both internally and through partnerships with other
organizations; and maintaining a disciplined product development process.
* Be customer-driven rather than product-driven. View customers not just as a single
transaction but also as an ongoing relationship. Outcome-based services are all
about the customer experience and the role the company plays in that experience.
* Scope your R&D projects and come up with a realistic estimate of the money,
time, and people each project requires. If you aren't disciplined about this
process, inevitably the project will go over budget and miss its deadlines.
* Build the absolute minimum needed for a workable product, then proceed
to testing it with customers. Only after that stage should you go on to add
more features.
