R&D Today
R&D Today – sharing ideas, good practice and innovation in R&D management.
R&D Today aims to share knowledge, new approaches and well proven techniques, it is the outreach site for the Research and Development Management Association (RADMA), a charitable organisation that supports research, best practice and education.
The intention is to signpost resources, papers and tools that would be of value to someone working in R&D and innovation management. All content is credited and referenced back to the source in line with the fair use doctrine.
We have found the Pentathlon provides a useful framework for discussion – click through the slides below to explore further.
If you are working in this field do get in contact.
Our Themes
There is no shortage of challenges facing R&D managers, but sources of practical help can be in short supply. To assist we have selected a number of themes that are of wide interest:
– technology strategy
– ideation and creativity
– managing the pipeline
– open innovation
– roadmapping
– managing international R&D
For each we have invited two guest editors, a practitioner and an academic, to curate a useful resource for each.
View more about our themes here.
The Pentathlon Framework
Without risk you cannot have game-changing innovation
The key to successful innovation is to fail fast at the front-end, where the impact on the business can be managed.
The Pentathlon Framework can be used to describe a structured process that removes the risk of failure as ideas progress through the ‘Innovation Funnel’.
