Driving innovation through design-oriented strategies
Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings The review is based on “Design-oriented strategy typology and innovation framework” by Hsu (2017). This case study of Taiwanese consumer electronics and computer companies demonstrates how product innovation strategies are being used to develop a competitive advantage that survives in the global market. Product R&D and design tends to focus on “new experience” in aggressive innovation enterprises, “new value” in market innovation enterprises, “new service” in technical innovation enterprises, and “new positioning” in opportunity enterprises. Moving with the market by innovating in one of these ways is the big theme at the heart of the collective achievements of these companies. Practical implications The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
