INVENT new business models

Learn about exploring new ideas, inventing new business models, the supporting framework to rigorously test them in a simple and practical way, and metrics to show how you are reducing risk & uncertainty pre-revenue.

IMPROVE existing business models

Learn how to manage and improve the businesses you already have. Understand how much profit your existing business models generate, assess its sustainability or disruption risk, and point out any synergies or conflicts between your other business models.

MANAGE a portfolio of BMs

Learn how to systematically invent, improve and manage your business models all under the same roof to build a balanced portfolio which builds on our Portfolio Map tool.

Broken down into three core sections, you will learn how to systematically invent, improve and manage your innovation efforts using new tools we’ve designed, such as

  1. The Business Portfolio Map: How robust is your portfolio to withstand disruption? Are you working on enough new potential growth engines?
  2. Innovation Metrics: Reduce risk and uncertainty, and measure if your business model is at risk of disruption.
  3. The Culture Map: Intentionally design an innovation culture that unearths and builds new growth engines, reduces the risk of experimentation, and increases ROI on R&D.
  4. And a series of beautifully illustrated Business Model Mechanics.

The Invincible Company helps take the fear out of innovation and reduce the risk of wasting time and money with products or services that nobody wants, and business models that don’t provide a returns or growth.

In addition, we’ve researched 26 new case studies from a wide variety of industries (including the likes of Fortnite, Michelin, Singer & Tesla Motors) to provide you with real life, tangible examples of the business model mechanics and how to use them.

We also outline the tools to help you assess your own business model, alongside frameworks for you to build the foundations of your own ambidextrous organisation.

Ultimately, this book provides all disruptors and senior leaders with the best available tools and methodologies to lead their organizations to design a day-one innovation culture, including how to manage innovation portfolios, and set-up the corresponding organizational structures.

So… Are are ready for the future, or do you fear disruption?
