What happens when your organisation fails to foster a culture of creativity and collaboration? Innovation stalls, employee engagement drops, and competitors outpace you with faster, smarter solutions. Without a structured way to assess and strengthen your innovation culture, you risk missed opportunities, declining market relevance, and an inability to adapt to changing customer demands. The Incremental Innovation and Innovation Culture Self-Assessment Kit gives you the diagnostic power to identify exactly where your organisation stands, and what to fix, using a comprehensive, standards-aligned framework for measuring and advancing innovation maturity. Based on proven methodologies including Kotter’s Change Model, the OECD Innovation Framework, and ISO 56002:2019 Innovation Management, this self-assessment equips you to close critical gaps before they undermine growth or compliance.

How This Helps You
Every day without a clear picture of your innovation culture, you’re operating on assumptions, not data. That means misallocated resources, failed change initiatives, and talented employees disengaging because their ideas go unheard. This self-assessment replaces guesswork with governance. You’ll pinpoint whether leadership messaging aligns with team behaviour, if collaboration is truly cross-functional or siloed, and whether your reward systems encourage risk-taking or punish failure. By identifying weaknesses in psychological safety or idea capture workflows, you prevent innovation stagnation before it impacts product development cycles or customer satisfaction. Organisations that use structured assessments like this report 3.2x faster time-to-market and 47% higher employee retention in R&D roles. In contrast, those without formal evaluation mechanisms are 5 times more likely to experience innovation theatre, activity without impact, leading to wasted budgets and lost strategic credibility.
Who Is This For?
- Compliance and risk managers needing to align innovation practices with ISO 56002 and internal governance standards
- HR and organisational development leads driving engagement, change management, and talent retention programmes
- IT and product innovation leads required to demonstrate ROI on digital transformation and R&D investments
- Operations directors seeking to embed continuous improvement into daily workflows
- Consultants and internal auditors delivering third-party evaluations of innovation capability and cultural health
- Senior executives accountable for long-term competitiveness and strategic agility
