    In 2013, Chancellor Pradeep Khosla launched a comprehensive and inclusive strategic planning initiative with the goal of defining a unifying vision and set of shared goals for the campus, at what was seen as a critical point in the history of UC San Diego. UC San Diego understood that the strategic planning process, and the collaboration and communication channels it established, were as important as the creation of the final document.
    In this case study, we look at how UC San Diego found a way to keep discussions going all across the campus and shifted from "planning" to "doing".

  • The Long Tail of Idea Generation

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INNOVATION SCIENCE

    Engaging hundreds or thousands of employees in challenges that address specific business needs is a well established innovation model. Large-scale idea generation is a key element of such challenges, and we have observed that it has remarkably consistent statistical properties across every challenge, company, and industry. It bears a strong analogy to the “long tail” that Chris Anderson recognized in electronic retail of books and music and shares its enabling economics. We propose that idea…

    Engaging hundreds or thousands of employees in challenges that address specific business needs is a well established innovation model. Large-scale idea generation is a key element of such challenges, and we have observed that it has remarkably consistent statistical properties across every challenge, company, and industry. It bears a strong analogy to the “long tail” that Chris Anderson recognized in electronic retail of books and music and shares its enabling economics. We propose that idea generation is driven by universal positive feedback properties which account for its observed power law form, scale independence, and dynamics of growth. Simulation reproduces these properties and suggests further details and consequences. These robust observations have significant impact on strategies in collaborative innovation.
