The 3-pillar model is an organizational innovation model consisting of 3 Innovation Pillars, which – when combined – provide the framework for self-sustained innovation.
Each of the program’s activities will contain elements from all three pillars, although one of the pillars will typically be dominant at a given time.
For example, initially we are more likely to focus on creating immediate and mid-term results to achieve a quick ROI (Return on Innovation), but this will also create the engagement to drive the innovation buzz and momentum. In effect, it will supply participants in the project with practical tools for innovative thinking.
Effectively utilizing the three-pillar model ensures innovation will become continuous, systematic and reliable.
