The Secret Magic Mathematic Formula of Innovation!
http://www.strategyofinnovation.com/articlethesecretmagicmathematicformulaofinnovation99318843.html
Because of the globalization of business, commercial competition is everyday harder and harder. To
maintain a leader position, or just to survive, companies must propose rapidly and efficiently to their
clients new attractive goods and/or services. For this, they have to innovate, to evolve by creating new
market opportunities or by adapting themselves to changing markets.
Therefore, as a responsible CEO or Manager, you know that:
"YOU MUST INNOVATE!"
.... but how?!
For the very first time in the history, I will reveal the "Secret Magic Mathematic Formula of Innovation"
used by Apple, Google, 3M .... . Hereafter, the full demonstration to obtain the formula with which you
will innovate safely, without any uncertainty.
Let's start:
● You need some "Explicit Knowledge" or simply "Knowledge"
Knowledge (including all your knowwhat, knowwhy, knowwho) is everywhere, you can acquire it
from your parents and family, during studies at school and higher education, by reading books, articles
or blogs, by observing carefully the world around you ... .
But Knowledge without Imagination = An inert book (handbook, textbook, articles, encyclopedia or
any other data in a data container such a digital database or the mass of your brain in your skull!)
● You need some "Imagination"
But Imagination without Knowledge = Production of ideas (good and bad ones), useless by itself.

● You need some Tacit Knowledge or simply "Knowhow"
But Knowhow alone = Craft = A useful skill but without a mission, still valueless
and
(Imagination + Knowhow) without Knowledge = Creativity = A piece of art, maybe beautiful (or not)
but still useless!
● If you add all the previous ingredients together, you could get:
Knowledge + Imagination + Knowhow = Invention
But "Invention" alone = a (tangible or intangible) prototype ... or just a gadget!
● Therefore, you have to add something (X) to the invention to transform it into innovation. Here
the final equation:
Invention + X = Innovation
X = Entrepreneurship
Invention + Entrepreneurship = Innovation
But something sounds wrong with this formula!
We cannot predict the future, and therefore we cannot predict if a (Invention + Entrepreneurship) can
become an innovation. Indeed, we can judge if an invention brought into the market is an innovation (or
not = a fail), only in posteriori.
What we have learned in posteriori from all innovations (or what one could name business successes):
A) All innovations have had needed around 35% of Invention (Creativity, R&D, Knowhow,
Conception, ...) and 75% of Entrepreneurship!
(These percentages are in relation of the use of investment done by innovative companies)
B) All Innovations have in common to have created new behaviours of users, new uses and meanings
and therefore new knowledge.
So the final equation could be:
Invention + Entrepreneurship = Innovation + "NewKnowledge"
A) Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship is the energy, resources and leadership needed to change, with the use of the
invention, the behaviour of users, consumers. Therefore, a good CEO, managing an innovation project,
must want to change the world, or at minimum the world of his customers!
Entrepreneurship is not an exact science. It's a mix of talent, leadership, opportunism, business
sense/business education/business knowhow, financial resources, .... and some Luck!

Entrepreneurship = Talent + Leadership + Business sense/education/knowhow + Financial resources
+ Opportunism + Luck
● Talent is innate and cannot be learned!
● Leadership can be innate or can be learned in business schools, in books, blogs and websites,
or from a Mentor.
● Business sense/business education/business knowhow can be learned (= Rational analysis of
the business opportunity: Strategy and Business Model, Marketing, Business planning ...).
● Opportunism and Luck may be provocated by developing a good "Life and Social Skills". Be
curious and have thirst of knowledge! Share your passions and surround your life with people
having a high curiosity and thirst of knowledge.
● Financial resources can be supplied by investors.
B) New Meanings and Knowledge
The innovation process is inseparable from the knowledge production. Indeed, innovation cannot be
done without a base of knowledge (nothing has been created from the nothingness!), and when an
innovation is produced, there is systematically new meanings and knowledge produced at the same time.
Consequently, organizations should consider knowledge as “capital”. This immaterial capital is deeply
neglected in most organization, due to ignorance its value or due to the pressure of rapid financial return.
Identifying very carefully the knowledge produced during innovation process could have two benefits:
1. The reinjection of the capital "knowledge" produced during the innovation process to the next
innovation process is absolutely necessary to ensure the sustainability of future innovations. This
is what should do the knowledge management. The knowledge management should not just be
the use of a "software" or a suggestion/idea box! Do you deal with the cash of your company
with a box? No of course, therefore respect your knowledge as gold!
2. If the company makes the effort to share its new base of knowledge with its users/consumers,
then its invention is much more likely to be accepted, and thus become an innovation. This is
what should do the community management. The community manager should not just share fun
things or news about the company in the Facebook fan page or in the Twitter account. He/she
should be a talented teacher*
having the mission to educate users, customers.
*
Companies should hire talented and creative teachers!
Finally, what characterizes the failure of an invention to become an innovation is to assume that the
company has failed to share its knowledge base and to educate its audience (specially earlyadopters
and leadusers).
Therefore, (Invention + Entrepreneurship) cannot be equal to Innovation, but rather to New
meanings/New Knowledge that the entrepreneur share with his community.

Finally, we have:
a) Invention + Entrepreneurship = Newknowledge
+
b) Newknowledge + Community = Innovation
=
Invention + Entrepreneurship + Newkowledge + Community = Innovation +Newknowledge
Innovation Formula:
Invention + Entrepreneurship + Community = Innovation
The term Knowledge is not anymore visible in the final equation due to the arithmetic rules, but it is still
present and very important! It is the key of the success of the innovation process.
Another important point, the formula indicates that without an existing community, your invention cannot
become an innovation. Therefore, the CEO of a startup company has to create a community of early
users/believers/fans or infiltrate an existing community. CEOs of startups must understand that this is
fully part of their mission, it's what Guy Kawasaki, former Apple Marketing Guru, calls Evangelism.
Community, believers, evangelism, evangelist, guru ... these terms come from the vocabulary of religions
and cults ... because innovation is exactly the same process than creating a new religion or cult !
In conclusion, yes I lied in the title of this article: "The Magic Mathematic Formula of Innovation" !
There is no magic and no mathematic formula, but rather a cooking recipe and a sort of road map! And
what makes the success of a cooking recipe is the dosage and quality of ingredients, sharing passion and
of course the experience of the chef!
So, try and don't fear about failure!
