Beyond the Innovation Buzzword: When Survival Demands Transformation
In 2016, electric vehicle manufacturer NOVUS approached automation supplier Wes-Tech with requirements that defied conventional solutions. Rather than following established protocols, Wes-Tech formed an elite team that collaborated intensively with the client, developing new practices and maintaining 24/7 availability. This intuitive pivot toward innovation didn't just win them the contract - it transformed their business model and secured their future in a rapidly changing industry. While Silicon Valley startups celebrate innovation, small and medium-sized mature enterprises (SMMEs) often view it as an expensive luxury rather than a survival necessity. They cling to familiar objections: "Innovation reduces profit," "We're already innovating," or "We'll deal with it when the time comes." These arguments reveal fundamental misunderstandings about innovation's nature. Many companies claiming to innovate are merely making incremental changes within existing paradigms, such as updating packaging or slightly modifying features, while missing opportunities for true breakthrough innovation that redefines competition. The reality? Avoiding innovation represents the greater risk. Companies that postpone renewal until decline becomes obvious typically lack the resources, capabilities, and time to respond effectively. As one executive aptly noted, "Innovation is a 'pay me now or pay me later' proposition" - and "later" inevitably arrives at the most inconvenient moment.
