Round-Table, 10 March 2017 Procter&Gamble, Brussels, Belgium EIRMA/ Summary R&D organizations are faced by a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world (VUCA). Exponential technologies disrupt industries. A startup culture needs to be balanced with increased automation of the R&D engine enabling existing global businesses. Effective innovation organizations need to integrate and balance these needs. This will lead to multimodal cultures, team structures and measures. Different measures, KPIs and reward systems have to be balanced across the portfolio to maintain agility, to take advantage of disruptive change and to reduce the impact of project failures. To survive, a future proof innovation organization will need to be agile and combine various cultures and inputs across disciplined measures. Different organization models are rapidly emerging covering lean, bimodal approaches, modular organizations and re-invented matrix structures. Key is to define the organizational set-up, the culture and the measures for success. This hackathon style workshop will provide insights of cutting edge approaches for the next decade R&D organization and have participants develop a set of practical options to build the future proof innovation organization and its measures for success. EIRMA members will also explore how R&D will change driven by technology, business model changes and cultural approaches Issues Addressed How to combine different business models in a R&D organization.

Introductions and definition of the first framework to re-design organizations. Expected outcome: squads in place and direction defined 9:45-10:15 Inspiration 1: How do companies deal with the dilemmas of remaining agile and remaining top of class? Presentation on the emerging practices of balancing internal resources with things like corporate venturing and tech scouting and on how companies are coping with the increasing pace of innovation. The type of knowledge needed to develop new products is changing ever more rapidly, while R&D staffing and facilities are changing relatively slowly because they require lengthy investments. As a result companies are increasingly at risk of owning outdated R&D facilities and employing staff with knowledge that is no longer relevant. At the same time, it is not an option

The introduction of new technology into industrial products has moved from a multi-annual to an almost quarterly or monthly rate. Most of this acceleration has been driven by the shift from hardware technology to the digital world. At GE we constantly review our operations, organizational structure and product and service offerings to support our strategy and meet the needs of our customers. One of GE s key success factors is our ability to reinvent and change, fueling industrial innovation and progress over the past 125 years. GE Global Research, GE s technology and research arm, is charged with inventing groundbreaking technologies across the industrial sectors that truly change the world. To deliver on this mission in the fast-paced, dynamic world in which we live, it is critical for GE corporate R&D to transform into a more focused, leaner, more agile research organization. Dietmar Tourbier, Manager Global Research, GE 11:45-12:15 Team session 3: Squads develop the processes and people design At this time of the hackathon day, the teams should have tested and experimented their future R&D organisation models through team debates, inspired by the speakers presentations.

What s the transition from today to tomorrow? 12:15 12:45 Inspiration 3: Agile Research & Innovation organization Making better choices As a multinational company relying on innovation to generate profitable and sustainable growth, our goal is to combine the agility and focus of a startup environment with the critical mass, depth and global reach of a large group. This session will highlight some critical changes we made in our organization and in the way we are managing our portfolio of key innovation initiatives. In particular, the discussion will focus on tools, processes and behaviors we see as critical to enable our teams to make the best possible decisions about strategic choices and doing so at the right time.
