In about 5 minutes, it looks across the whole picture: how you do innovation (strategy, evidence, portfolio discipline) and the organizational conditions that decide whether it sticks (mandate, culture, leadership, governance, decision-making, and people).
AI hasn't repealed the laws of corporate innovation. The classic failure mechanisms, above all RPP misalignment, still apply to AI-enabled innovation, and the remedies for the classic challenges are the same ones that help AI-driven innovation. AI changes the tools, not the discipline.
Whether a new business idea is worth pursuing isn't a gut call or a five-year business plan. Treat it as a testable strategy hypothesis, read it across desirability, feasibility, and viability, and pursue it if you can name the assumptions that would kill it and cheaply test the most dangerous one.
The right metrics for a specific innovation come from the objective it serves and a read across desirability, feasibility, and viability, scaled to stage and class. The common trap is judging early-stage work by core-business financial yardsticks.
