Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#57 Produktmanagement heißt nicht gefallen, sondern entscheiden
Q: Wie misst du Wirksamkeit in der Produktentwicklung und welche Rolle spielt Fokus dabei?
Ich messe Wirksamkeit indirekt ĂŒber Fokus und Kundennutzen; gezielter Fokus auf wenige MĂ€rkte/Kunden, klare Jobs-to-be-done-Statements und schrittweises Validieren der Kernannahmen mit konkreten Metriken.
#56 Innovation only matters when it scales
Q: Welche Rolle spielt KI in eurem Ansatz, und wird es irgendwann den Menschen ersetzen?
KI ist ein Werkzeug, das unsere Effizienz erhöht, aber der menschliche Faktor bleibt entscheidend, um Richtung, PrioritÀten und das konkrete Vorankommen zu steuern. Es geht darum, Aufgaben sinnvoll zu automatisieren, nicht darum, alles zu automatisieren.
#56 Innovation only matters when it scales
Q: Wie hat sich euer Innovationsansatz seit 2019 verÀndert und welche Lehren ziehst du aus der Corona-Phase?
Seit 2019 operieren wir unter dem Konzept der Innovation Symphony, das zentrale Governance mit vernetztem Arbeiten in allen Bereichen verbindet. Corona hat Innovation globaler gemacht und gezeigt, dass ferne Standorte wie TU Wien oder Silicon Valley genauso wichtig sind wie die Wasserkraft – es braucht verteilte Zusammenarbeit und schnelle, globale ReaktionsfĂ€higkeit.
#56 Innovation only matters when it scales
Q: Was bedeutet fĂŒr dich Innovation und Erfolg bei Innovation?
Erfolg bedeutet, Innovationsthemen in die GeschĂ€ftsbereiche zu ĂŒbergeben, damit sie dort skaliert werden; nur wenn Projekte wirklich in die operative Business Unit gehen und dort wachsen, messen wir echten Wert. Zudem ist es wichtig, Themen aus dem zentralen Bereich zu lösen und an den Marktwert zu bringen.
#39 Stories that stick
Q: What are the four main types of stories and how should leaders use them in practice?
The four are the customer story, the founder/leader story, the value story, and the purpose story; they should be used in a balanced mix, chosen for their specific strategic purpose in the transformation journey.
