How does Innovation Tactics work?

Innovation Tactics demystifies the innovation process so you can you launch products & services your customers will clamber to pay for. Take a look at one of our video masterclasses included with the Digital Decks:

The right tactic at the right time.

How can you tell if an idea is truly innovative?

You’ll always choose the right tactic with the Innovation Strategy System. A simple set of questions helps you find the most useful category of tactics.

It’s the perfect tool to help when you aren’t sure where to begin, or to get unstuck if you feel lost.

54 tactics that demystify the innovation process.

Each exercise fits on the back of a card, so you can get started without reading someone's life story.

The jargon-free instructions are easy to follow, for novices and experts alike.

No dead ends.

You've just finished a tactic and now you’re wondering “what next?”

The answer is on the bottom of each card.

Like a choose-your-own-adventure, it points to the suggested tactics to run before and after - so you never get stuck.

“If you’re trying to make something that hasn't been made before, think of Innovation Tactics as a set of power-ups to use when the team feels stuck. It’s not magical - you have to do the work! - but if your currency is learning, these approaches will maximize your insight ROI!”

He’s coached teams from around the world in research methods, discovery habits, A/B testing and design decision-making.

Why is Innovation Tactics a deck of cards?

Books and courses can be useful to learn new skills.

But they’re filled with stuff you don’t need.

Amongst the introductions, anecdotes and elaborations - you may come away with a couple of key insights. You could say the ipm (insights per minute) of a book or course is somewhere between 0.1 - 0.0001.

But with Pip Decks, and how we’ve distilled everything down to the essentials. The ipm is 1.

When you pick up a Pip Deck, you are almost immediately brimming with ideas and enthusiasm for how you can put this new knowledge into practice. 

It took Steve (author of Storyteller Tactics) decades to learn the skills that make him a celebrated storyteller. It took him months to turn them into practical tactics. It will take you minutes to read each card and start applying the insights.

“Game-changer in how we approach design & innovation.” — Michele M.
