Mentoring Program

After the education program has been completed and the tools and templates are in hand, the innovation champion is well poised to lead innovation initiatives related to core market growth, new market creation and disruptive innovation. Inevitably, as a recently prepared champion commences a project, issues arise that require the assistance of a more experienced consultant.

To assist, the Strategyn Institute offers a mentoring and support program. This program gives the innovation champion direct access to an experienced Strategyn consultant for assistance throughout the project. The innovation champion can acquire this support for any number of projects - until such time the champion is experienced and self sufficient.

The mentoring program offers assistance with all key facets of the outcome-driven innovation methodology. It includes help with:

  Project framing
  Outcome netting and final customer input reviews
  Questionnaire development and reviews
  Sample design
  Data analysis
  Report preparation
  Targeting
  Preparing and executing positioning, pipeline prioritization and ideation sessions
  Defining and assigning next steps

The goal of the mentoring program is to ensure the success of the champion’s innovation initiative within the firm. The assistance is limited to 20 hours per project unless an agreement has been reached to the contrary.
