How can you structure a new idea so that it succeeds, gains traction, and serves others best?
What you need to know:

  • ​What has been missing that Get To Next provides?
  • ​What are the seven deadly obstacles?
Traditional tools  won't help in today's environment.
WHY DO TRADITIONAL TECHNIQUES FALL SHORT?
They were not designed to do what today's realities demand.

• Strategy can miss the mark when it comes to innovation priorities
• Innovation techniques can hit a wall when it's time to commercialize or get buy in at scale
• Futurist thinking can be hard to translate into the here and now
• Distractions prevent Project Next from becoming Focus Now
So, would you like to know
  • ​​Where to place your bets?
  • ​How to get unstuck?
  • ​How to enlist buy-in inside your company?
  • ​How to move from early stage ideas to full-scale success?
It used to be that the biggest problem with innovation was coming up with ideas. Today, the toughest challenges are knowing where to place our bets, gaining support for early stage initiatives, and taking the risk out of growing an idea to scale.
The linear, traditional processes that used to work in the past to bring us great inventions and grand earnings no longer meet the need of a rapidly changing ecosystem with monumental challenges. While there are aspects of past performance worth retaining, what is missing is the intentional integration of all the moving parts into a streamlined process in real-time.
In complex times we need simplicity
• In Get To Next we teach you a system and a process to identify a promising idea and “take it to the bank” in five simple steps - quickly.
Actionable support for your ideas + initiatives
