TEI 142: Platforms and innovation for product managers

Global Product Management Talk is pleased to bring you the next
episode of... The Everyday Innovator with host Chad McAllister,
PhD. The podcast is all about helping people involved in innovation
and managing products become more successful, grow their careers,
and STANDOUT from their peers. About the Episode: This episode
focuses on platforms — a topic I haven’t discussed yet on this
podcast. An effective platform strategy is important for growing
organizations as well as those that are starting. There are
different perspectives on platforms and this interview primarily
explores digital platforms. My guest is Larry Keeley, a strategist
who has worked for over three decades to develop effective
innovation methods, based in science and analytics. He is President
and co-founder of Doblin Inc, an innovation strategy firm known for
pioneering comprehensive innovation systems that materially improve
innovation success rates and innovation return on investment.
Doblin is now a unit of Deloitte Digital. Larry is also the author
of the book Ten Types of Innovation, the Discipline of Building
Breakthroughs, which you’ll hear us talk about towards the end of
the interview.
