The information collected in these Q&amp;As will act as valuable assets for anyone wanting to make clear the real need for more adaptive product development and to show that an accelerated process is still highly possible, even in the face of consistent disruptions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bulk of the webinar is based on a recent research paper\u2014<em>Accelerating innovation: some lessons from the pandemic<\/em>\u2014published by Dr. Robert Cooper in the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC8014561\/#:~:text=Newer%20digital%20tools%20are%20outlined,and%20cutting%20too%20many%20corners.\" class=\"ek-link\"> <em>Journal of Product Innovation Management<\/em><\/a><em>. <\/em>The paper outlines six key practices for accelerating new product development and innovations based on examples from companies representing various industries. However, our discussion with Dr. Cooper mainly focuses on three of those six practices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\"><li>Effective Portfolio Management<\/li><li>Lean Development<\/li><li>Agile Stage-Gate<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>After the presentation, to our happy surprise, attendees posed a ton of questions to the panel. The Q&amp;A session resulted in close to 45-minutes of additional discussion, some of which had to take place outside of the live event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the Q&amp;A portion of this webinar was so comprehensive, covering key accelerated product development topics, we are providing this short post that arranges this valuable information into bite-sized pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The questions have been split into two broader categories below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_80 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div

cross-functional teams to visualize work in their preferred methodology can lead to greater efficiency and collaboration.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Rethinking the pathway to product development often means approaching things from multiple perspectives and combining different production methodologies. Dr. Cooper suggests combining elements from Lean methodologies (value stream mapping) and Agile methods (incremental and iterative) in his paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, implementing such change and getting people onboard with approaching their work in a new way can be challenging. The questions covered in this download talk about getting started with Agile-Stage-Gate and how to get a team to buy-in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/info.planview.com\/Accelerating-Innovation-Webinar-QA-Agile-Stage-Gate-_whitepaper_pi_en_view.html\" class=\"ek-link\">DOWNLOAD THE DATASHEET<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"allocation-capacity\"><strong>Resource Allocation, Capacity, Planning Best Practices<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A global view of your entire product development ecosystem is critical to accelerating innovation from a position of strength and intelligence. In addition, organizations also need to rank and prioritize projects with intention\u2014based on value, resources, and other vital factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many ways to accomplish this within an Agile-Stage-Gate methodology, meaning there are many questions on execution. The majority of our questions feel into this download here.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/info.planview.com\/Accelerating-Innovation-Webinar-QA-Resource-Allocation-_whitepaper_pi_en_view.html\" class=\"ek-link\">DOWNLOAD THE DATASHEET<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Almost three-quarters of executives stated that they believe changes brought about by the pandemic will lead to greater opportunities for growth and innovation.<\/p><cite><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/business-functions\/strategy-and-corporate-finance\/our-insights\/innovation-in-a-crisis-why-it-is-more-critical-than-ever\" class=\"ek-link\">McKinsey Innovation through Crisis Survey, April 2020<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on the responses gathered in McKinsey&#8217;s survey on innovation during a crisis, the lessons conveyed in this webinar could not be more relevant. The lessons shared in these Q&amp;As, the webinar, and the Dr. Cooper paper also mirror what some of the most successful organizations are doing to respond to change according to our own insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Consider_an_Adaptive_New_Product_Development_Strategy\"><\/span>Consider an Adaptive New Product Development Strategy <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As opposed to knee-jerk reactions or relying on the status quo, based on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/lp\/strategy-execution-benchmark-prm\/get-report\/\">a Planview benchmark report<\/a>, organizations that successfully execute on a strategy of adaptation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\"><li>Replan continuously<\/li><li>Employ lean and agile practices broadly<\/li><li>Generate actionable data to inform decisions<\/li><li>Invest in technology to understand the impact of change<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>One prevailing theme that came out of the Q&amp;A seemed to be that, while leaders acknowledge the pandemic and other related changes have brought about opportunities to innovate, the path forward for some is still unclear. What is abundantly clear is that doing things the same way for new and innovative product development is not the key to acceleration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch the <a href=\"https:\/\/info.planview.com\/Accelerating-Innovation-Post-Pandemic-Lessons-with-Stage-Gate-Creator-Dr-Robert-Cooper-_webinar_pi_en_reg.html\" class=\"ek-link\">full webinar on-demand<\/a> to find out how your organization can use these lessons to light a pathway to choosing the right innovations and delivering them quickly and efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About Dr. Robert G.
