The Five Factors That Drive Digital Innovation

Creative thinking and innovation are essential for any organization's long-term success. In today's digital age, there are five main factors to drive digital innovation: dissatisfaction, simplification, diversification, amplification, and exemplification. Dissatisfaction is the starting point to trigger creativity and innovation – it's about finding a better way, reducing mediocre results and developing multidimensional thinking to diagnose problems effectively. Simplification is another important factor for innovation as it implies effective processes with well-managed procedures. Diversification and differentiation allow organizations to fix innovation bottlenecks and facilitate a supportive environment for merging ideas and concepts to create new products or services. Amplification uses effective tools or methodologies to increase the scalability of innovation through flexible and resilient teams. Finally, innovators need to use leadership and exemplification to encourage innovative thinking and lead people to grow beyond existing boundaries.
