Last week I talked about five key reflections to consider as you build out a strategic framework and measurement strategy for your innovation ecosystem.  If you followed through on these suggestions, you reached a critical point:  You are not looking at the output of your organization and you are not looking at existing measures or conventions regarding measurement.  You are focused on organizational, cultural and structural issues and you are being intentional about finding new, useful innovation indicators. Essentially, you are in the T. S. Eliot place:  you’ve circled back around to where you started (no clear direction or ideas) —  but with the aid of strategic reflection, you now “know the place.”   What you know is:  You need to look at your organization through a different lens.  The choosing of this lens is a critical step in moving in the right direction.
