OBJECTIVES OF THIS WORKSHOP

The workshop objectives are for you to experience . .

1NETWORKING

To show how capturing, creating and exchanging stories is a quick and effective way to make sense of a subject area within a complex situation.

2COLLABORATING

To provide a taste of some of the techniques we use with companies in our project and so help them to innovate by working more effectively with others.

. . CONSIDER JOINING SME-AERO-POWER

To interest you in joining the SME Aero-Power project (not just for those already in the Aerospace supply chain).

We used Ron Young's 4x4 matrix to show the 16 areas of interaction in the SME-AERO Open Innovation Ecosystem our project aims to stimulate.

...and translated effortlessly, by Oscar, into Spanish.

The project objectives were explained by Ron ...

Collaboration and InnovationIn this part of Spain

Future Backwards - This is a way to network with people at your table, to explore the following ecosystem...

Future Backwards is a Cognitive Edge method http://cognitive-edge.com/library/methods/future-backwards/

The instructions were explained piece by piece...

In under an hour we had three complete time-lines complete with worst outcome (Hell) and best outcome (Heaven)

Each group then nominated a storyteller who told their story to the other groups.

These themes are emergent and contextualised by the white perspectives. They help define and make sense of the Innovation Ecosystem being explored

Sharing story, perspectives, expertise...

The groups then considered the similarities, differences, surprises and concerns within the stories to make sense of the three different perspectives.

COLLABORATING

COLLABORATION & INNOVATIVE THINKING

- collaborating is more than networking: it involves doing something together and demands a degree of trust- this next technique is called SpeedStorming: how to find a number of opportunities for innovation in a short time by sharing ideas with other people

Now each person completes Step 1 on the SpeedStorming Instruction sheet . .

This was how we planned to do it, but with time running out and translations proving tricky...

How we actually did it...

Collaborative pairs consider opportunities for Innovation (O for I)

COLLABORATING

INNOVATION BOOSTING

- takes a good idea and accelerates the process of finding out how to turn it into reality - Innovation Boosting takes some time, so today we can only start the process by using a small number of techniques

The collaborative opportunities plotted by the participants on a Benefit vs Cost/Harm matrix ...

and their priority determined. All the opportunities were self-assessed as being of 'high benefit' to this ecosystem.
