From isolated to orchestrated efforts
Taskforce established with the aim of:
-assessing the opportunities, needs, and benefits for introducing new
practices of OI across The LEGO Group
-defining what next practice would look like building on internal practice
as well as insight from the best OI practitioners in the world
-making a firm and evidence based recommendation on what and
where the value could be, how this could be delivered and what would
be needed to achieve this.
-setting out a viable roadmap – based on how we should move forward,
balancing risk and rewards etc.

Our Approach
Learning from Others - 12 interviews with leading OI companies.
Learning from The LEGO Group - input from over
30 practitioners including 10 interviews
Learning by Doing - 4 micro pilots to test capabilities, culture and appetite

External as well as internal contributors have willingly shared their experiences and ideas…
“99.99% of the smartest people in the world don’t work for us.” P&G
“People don’t have to work for us to work with us.” Internal Quote
“All our radical innovations come from people who are not domain experts.”
Orange Telecom
“Until you open up, you do not know what is possible.” McLaren
“I am scared to look at external ideas because we don’t want to get sued.”Internal Quote
“The problem with an innovation culture is that for most of the time and for most of the people you don’t really want one!”
David Robertson, IMD
“Consumers of today are intelligent, they are creative and they have an opinion… And they expect you to listen!”

• Systematically ensuring greater diversity in our innovation efforts by seeking and applying input from the four value pools.
• This will provide richer and more innovative solutions with optimal contributions from the entire value chain
• There is overwhelming evidence that adopting T-shaped OI can trigger breakthrough solutions, as well as powerfully enrich the culture
• This is the single biggest change to TLG culture and practices we propose
To fully exploit the potential we need to apply a T-shaped model for OI…

Current pilot projects:
"People are much more likely to act their way into a new way of
thinking, than think their way into a new way of acting."
Richard Pascale
Therefore we run pilot projects
- in our production area (solving hard, “unsolvable” problems)
- on improving the core LEGO experience through crowdsourcing
- on how to improve core HR processes
- on an Open Innovation platform

What we want to achieve:
Going from:
Towards:
Creativity from the few Systematic creativity
from the many
Select strengths put to play Full potential realized
Succeeding together Succeeding
more together with more
people
A relatively closed culture A culture of openness
