Abstract
To ensure their long-term competitiveness, most large organizations are augmenting their investments in digital innovation, such as by increasing the number of agile teams, hackathons, and partnerships with start-ups. Yet when focusing only on such inputs, leaders can lose sight of the outcomes of the company s digital innovation investments and pursue innovations that are rarely used and difficult to improve, and produce little business value. A few organizations have refocused their innovation approach on developing digital offerings to achieve desired outcomes, while changing decision rights to make cross-functional teams responsible for realizing those outcomes. This briefing shares a case study of how Posten Norge AS has implemented this approach to increase the likelihood of creating competitively advantageous innovations and to become more agile.
