A conversation in which the authors present a 5-step model designed to help managers become more adept at early-stage experimentation. They will also discuss specific practices around what is being tested, how it is being tested, and what is learned.  

  • Conducting fast, simple experiments at the early stages of the innovation process can help practitioners manage innovation costs and risks.
  • Practitioners can use this 5-step process model for early-stage experimentation that is scalable across organizational levels and functions. 
  • By creating a strategic capability for experimentation that is systematic and scalable, a firm can enhance its ability to adapt to change and exploit opportunities in an uncertain world.
