I completely re-evaluated the role of innovation in business growth: before reading this book I have to admit I thought it only entailed product new features and technologies enhancements, while now I see it has everything to do with meeting customer needs and uncovering a business USP, which automatically translates in sales! Could not recommend it more!

Unlike most business innovation books I read over the last years (and even decades) when reading How to create innovation you immediately understand the authors have been there, innovating and transforming some of the world's most amazing brands. Great work!

Not only this book offers the most comprehensive innovation and business change overview but it really helps you take the next step, driving you step by step from theory to practice (also with super useful background notes and driving questions)

I really enjoyed the whole book, but mostly the culture chapter, mainly because I always failed to acknowledge its major role in favouring or inhibiting business growth. Loved the graphics that helped connect all the dots in a visually appealing (and way easier) way.

We’been willing to innovate our business for some years now, but then we always got stuck before we even started, because basically we had no idea where to start…This book helped us do just that: find the right starting point with guiding questions and an incredibly comprehensive innovation overview.

Culture & Organisation Change
Culture is the #1 factor why transformations fail. We are make sure you are setup for success.
Thousands of organizations leverage the UNITE models - these are some of them ...
Why we use it
As your success grows and as you scale from start-up to big corp, you need to find ways of scaling the circular organizational structure while retaining it’s superior design and advantages.
You ultimately want to be able to retain the agility and the advantages of a decentralized structure which keeps all involved while enabling scale.
So how do we go about it?
How It Works
The cognitive limit of humans to engage in effective working relationships is the key design boundary to take into account. This is typically referred to as the “Dunbar number”, which says that a single person cannot maintain more than around 150 social relationships at a time.
As our organization grows beyond 100 – maximum 200 people, we are splitting up the initial organizational structure into multiple organizations leveraging the principles of holding structure.
Holding structures of different characteristics ultimately allow to retain ownership and strong collaboration while maintaining the dynamics of agile organizations.
Holding structures of different characteristics ultimately allow to retain ownership and strong collaboration while maintaining the dynamics of agile organizations.
What is the goal of the model?
Scaling the circular organization. We are looking for a way to scale the organization without suffocating innovation while still enabling all involved to work together in a well aligned but decentralized network.
