What it is

Beyond one person’s opinion — the true state of your innovation capability

The Full-Scale InnoPulse Organisational Assessment is a commissioned, in-depth diagnosis for organisations that want a proper, representative and evidence-based view of their innovation capability and innovation health.

Rather than a single respondent’s perception, it draws on a representative sample of employees, managers, executives and relevant stakeholders — then triangulates that survey data with focus groups, interviews and facilitated workshops. The result is an accurate, boardroom-ready reflection of the actual state of innovation across your organisation.

What your organisation receives

A full diagnostic — not just a score

Evidence-based outputs your leadership team can align around and act on.

Representative organisational profile

Aggregated scores drawn from a representative sample of your workforce and leadership — not a single person’s view.

Stakeholder & role-group comparison

See how executives, managers, employees and partners each experience innovation, and exactly where they diverge.

Survey & qualitative triangulation

Quantitative survey data cross-referenced with focus-group and interview findings for a balanced, defensible picture.

Full diagnostic report

Strengths, gaps, risks, recurring patterns and improvement opportunities in an executive-ready format.

Facilitated results workshop

Findings presented and worked through with your organisation to build shared understanding and leadership buy-in.

Gap & improvement roadmap

Priority gaps converted into practical innovation-management actions and a clear, sequenced next-step plan.

How the process works

A seven-step, mixed-methods diagnosis

We combine quantitative and qualitative evidence so the findings are balanced, credible and defensible.

1

Representative survey participation

Multiple employees and role groups complete the questionnaire, giving a broad and reliable view of innovation capability across the organisation.

2

Focus group discussions

Facilitated discussions with selected groups of employees explore the themes emerging from the survey results.

3

Individual interviews

Interviews with key staff members, leaders and relevant stakeholders cross-reference the survey findings and add deeper qualitative insight.

4

Survey & qualitative triangulation

Survey results are compared with focus-group and interview findings to create a balanced, accurate reflection of innovation capability.

5

Full diagnostic report

A detailed report is produced, highlighting strengths, gaps, risks, patterns and improvement opportunities.

6

Workshop discussion of results

The findings are presented and discussed in facilitated workshops with the organisation.

7

Gap identification & improvement planning

Priority gaps and improvement areas are converted into practical, sequenced innovation-management actions.

What it measures

Every dimension of your innovation management system

Innovation strategy and leadership support, innovation culture, innovation processes, idea flow, governance and overall innovation maturity — each scored and compared across stakeholder groups so you can see not just the average, but the disagreement.

Why it matters

The bridge between diagnosis and action

A serious assessment doesn’t only tell you where you are — it shows you what to improve next.

This is the appropriate version for organisations that want a serious view of their innovation management system, innovation culture, processes, leadership support, idea flow, governance and overall maturity. By aligning leadership around a shared, evidence-based picture, it converts opinion into a practical improvement plan: prioritised gaps, clear next steps, and a roadmap for building a systematic approach to innovation management.

ISO 56001:2024

Aligned to the Innovation Management System standard

Both InnoPulse assessments are structured around the principles of ISO 56001:2024, the international standard for Innovation Management Systems — so your results map directly onto a recognised, auditable framework and support a more systematic approach to innovation management.
