Take the AssesmentWhy Design-Led Innovation?
Several reports (McKinsey, Invision, DMI ) show a strong positive correlation between design and business value. They demonstrate that design-driven organizations outperform their counter parts in business growth and performance. Such companies go beyond using design
as a service, seeing it instead as a catalyst for organizational change and something that should drive business strategy and innovation.
SAP’s Innovation Readiness Assessment offers tremendous value to organizations interested in harnessing the power of design to drive systemic innovation at their companies.

Innovation Culture Stages
How can organizations create cultures of design-led innovation? To answer this question, we developed an innovation culture framework based on our experience working closely with over 1000 clients around the world on strategic design and co-innovation initiatives. We identified four distinct stages to innovation culture, from being interested to scaled. This assessment will help you find out your organization’s innovation culture stage and ways to move to the next.
Interested
Efforts are grassroots and ad-hoc. Design is seen as a cost.
Invested
Design is important and some resources are provided, but success is not sustainable.
Engaged
Competent design capabilities are used as part of day-to-day business activities.
Scaled
Design-led innovation is practiced throughout the organization, and design drives business strategy.
