The Innovation Masterplan: Getting to the Innovation Mode

George Krasadakis

Chapter 10 in Innovation Mode 2.0, 2026, pp 249-305 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Transforming an organization into a truly innovative enterprise requires a systematic, phased approach that addresses technological capabilities, cultural evolution, and process optimization simultaneously. This final chapter synthesizes all previous concepts into a comprehensive innovation masterplan that provides leaders with actionable guidance for empowering their companies to innovate systematically. It explains how to drive a company through a continual improvement journey toward the Innovation Mode—the ultimate state where innovation occurs organically. The chapter explains the architecture of the program and presents the technological, cultural, and process changes required to achieve corporate innovation excellence. Through a structured system of six progressive phases, the program introduces more than 70 specific activities, events, and innovation capabilities that gradually transform organizational capacity and outcomes. This chapter presents the foundational setup of the program and its multiple stages—the “Power-Up” phase that establishes basic capabilities; “Spark” that ignites creative momentum; “Connect,” which links the essential innovation capabilities into a foundational system; “Empower” that opens up the business experimentation method to the organization; and “Scale-Up” that drives innovation at enterprise scale and pace. The chapter concludes by describing the “Embed” phase, where companies transition to an AI-powered autonomous mode, in which innovation becomes self-sustaining, continuously adaptive, and seamlessly integrated into every aspect of organizational operations, enabling perpetual opportunity discovery cycles.
