What is innovation?
9
“Innovation effectively is the process of technological change… the thing to really understand is that innovation is a process
not a thing. The thing, the outcome of innovation, is the invention. Innovation is
deeply associated with business processes, business models and all the different aspects
that combine towards creating a new product or service.”
Dr James Moody PhD, Innovation Theory
Founder: Sendle Author: The Sixth Wave: How to succeed in a resource limited world 10
– Mark Payne - Founder, Fahrenheit 212
“Innovation being synonymous with
growth. Companies that aren’t innovating
aren’t growing.”

PROCESS FOR INNOVATION
–Helen Walters, Fast Company
“A codified, repeatable, reusable practice
contradicts the nature of innovation, which requires
difficult, uncomfortable work to challenge the
status quo of an industry or, at the very least, an
organisation.”

Australian Defence Apparel (ADA)
“ADA has a very long history. But our suppliers, from even two years ago, may no longer be strategically relevant for our business.

In our marketing team not only are they diverse in themselves but their particular skill set is entirely different from our engineers, who are entirely different to the people that make up our customer happiness team. That eclectic nature is what makes our company strong. We need people thinking in different ways to handle all the different aspects that we are required to handle to be a successful startup company.”
Melanie Perkins, Founder & CEO Canva

Google“Collaboration is so ingrained in the way that we do things. Any time we want to try and do new things, one of the huge elements we talk about is what potential partnerships can we put into play here? How can we work with others to get this out into the real world in an interesting way? We have great products and great platforms. Sometimes the best stuff happens when we are just the platform and we give over the creativity and expression to others to use.”
Lee Hunter, Head of Marketing Innovation, APAC Google

Mirvac“We don't want to take ideas away to perfect them in isolation, and then receive a rude shock when we unveil it to the customer. It's a continual process. We call it ‘experimenting’, and it’s based on lean startup methodology. This involves identifying the key assumptions that underlie an idea and going out to test them with those front line customers. This is a new methodology for our business and we are just learning how best to do this.”
Christine Gilroy, Group General Manager, Innovation Mirvac

BlameySaunders“Most CEO's of companies (particularly one’s that didn't own the company), would have checked out at that point. Whereas, we didn't. I thought, ‘Oh, damn. Our supplier has gone bankrupt. Better get on the road and find another one.’ Things are going to happen. Things are going to keep happening. The universe throws things at you. If the wind stops blowing get out the oars.”
Elaine Saunders, Founder BlameySaunders Hears

Starting the journey
Can we use these same process to drive innovation within not-for-profit and social enterprises?

Finding our feet
What is the role of innovation when viewed from a charitable and philanthropic perspective?
64
Charity :an organisation set up to provide help and raise money for those in need.
65
Philanthropy :an altruistic concern for human welfare and advancement.

Philanthropy vs. Charity
charity aims to relieve the pain of a particular social problem,
whereas philanthropy attempts to address the root cause of the social problem,
“the difference between the proverbial gift of a fish to a hungry person, versus teaching them how to fish.”
