The Critical Role of Human Experience Innovation in the New Experience Economy
In today's rapidly evolving marketplace, traditional methods of driving enterprise growth and maintaining competitiveness are no longer sufficient. As we enter the Experience Economy, where the value of human experience takes center stage, organizations must adopt a new approach—one that places Human Experience Innovation at the heart of their strategy. This isn't just a trend; it's a fundamental shift in how businesses must operate to stay relevant and thrive.
Human Experience Innovation is about reimagining and redesigning every touchpoint within the human experience ecosystem. This ecosystem includes employees, customers, partners, connectors, innovators, and the broader physical and industry communities that interact with your organization. Each participant plays a critical role in shaping and enhancing the overall experience, and the organizations that recognize and leverage this interconnectedness will be the ones that lead in the new economy.
The Power of Employees in the Experience Economy
Employees are the backbone of any organization, and their experience directly impacts customer satisfaction and overall business performance. According to a study by Deloitte, companies that focus on creating a strong employee experience see a 2.5 times greater revenue growth and 4.5 times higher profit margins than their peers . By fostering an environment where employees feel valued, engaged, and empowered, organizations can drive innovation from within and create a ripple effect that enhances the customer experience.
Customers as Co-Creators of Value
In the Experience Economy, customers are no longer passive recipients of products and services. They are active participants and co-creators of value. Companies that excel in Human Experience Innovation understand the importance of engaging customers in meaningful ways, whether through personalized experiences, interactive platforms, or community-building initiatives. A report by PwC reveals that 73% of consumers say a good experience is key in influencing their brand loyalties, and 65% of U.S. consumers find a positive experience with a brand to be more influential than great advertising .
Partners and Connectors: Expanding the Experience Ecosystem
Partnerships and strategic alliances are crucial in extending the reach and impact of Human Experience Innovation. By collaborating with partners who share a commitment to enhancing human experiences, organizations can tap into new ideas, technologies, and markets. Connectors—those who bring people, ideas, and resources together—are also vital in fostering innovation and ensuring that experiences are cohesive across all touchpoints.

As someone who has launched hundreds of medical devices to the market, I have certainly had more than my fair share of belly flops. In fact, some of these product failures cost me personally millions of dollars, and those are the kinds of lessons that leave a big impact. The impact was so significant, in fact, that I became obsessed with the forensics of what causes product failure. It turns out there are four failure zones that we need to be very careful about when developing our products if we want to create technologies that delight our customers and ultimately scale, grow, and deliver enterprise profit. Now, without further ado, here are my four failure zones to pay very close attention to:
The Innovation Failure Zone
I have been awarded over 40 U.S. patents for technologies that I have created, and unfortunately, it took me a long time to understand the innovation failure zone. This zone is the moment we come up with an idea for a new product. The problem with this moment of innovation is that it originates from us, and therefore we move forward with the innovation with tremendous bias. It is said that love is the most irrational human emotion, and for most innovators, we love our ideas. We’re excited to launch them to market, and that’s where the trouble begins. Even when we seek out advice about our ideas, we typically seek confirmatory advice from spouses, friends, and colleagues. It’s incredible that we look to this body of analysis when none of these confirmatory insights deliver additional value.
How to Avoid the Innovation Failure Zone
Fall out of love with your idea and approach it with tremendous cynicism and skepticism. Successful inventors create lots of products, but they also kill the development of products early on to provide the emotional, time, and financial bandwidth necessary to move on to the next idea.
The Insight Failure Zone
For decades, product developers have limited their insights to voice-of-the-customer methods and feedback from a close circle of individuals who share the same frame of reference. Simply put, the success of innovation lies in the accuracy of the insights.
How to Avoid the Insight Failure Zone
Go far beyond traditional methods of technology assessment, including staged methods, FFE (Front-End Engineering), and VOC (Voice of Customer). These approaches are simply not enough and are generally risk-centric.
The Design Failure Zone
Some studies suggest that less than 2% of issued U.S. patents ever reach successful commercialization. One of the major reasons why most products fail is that the product is launched into the marketplace before it’s finished. Your product needs to have 10X the value of your competition in terms of real customer value. Take your time, finish the design, and whatever you do, don’t launch your product to market until you have installed every drop of value you possibly can.
How to Avoid the Design Failure Zone
Develop design team architecture that is far more expansive in terms of frames of reference and skill sets. Today, the best design teams include AI developers, UX designers, and a wide range of new participants, including artists and architects. The bottom line is that you need more diversity of thinking to have better innovations. Also, don’t become complacent. Be open to new, great ideas.
The Commercialization Failure Zone
I can’t tell you how many failed product developers I have interviewed in researching my multiple books on innovation who told me that their product was so good “it would sell itself.” If you were to give me the choice between a mediocre product with great marketing and commercialization effort or a great product with mediocre marketing and commercialization effort, I would take the ma

How to Invent
Thriving in a Time of Rapid and Chaotic Change
In today's world, where rapid and chaotic change has become the norm, innovation is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity. The pace at which industries are evolving, driven by technological advancements, shifting consumer behaviors, and global challenges, demands that organizations not only keep up but lead the way. The ability to invent, to create something new and valuable, is the differentiator that separates the leaders from the followers.
However, invention in this era is not about random flashes of brilliance or relying on outdated methods. It's about a strategic approach that ensures your innovation is not just novel but impactful. Here’s a four-step guide to effective invention in today's dynamic landscape.
1. Get Far Better Insights - Move Beyond Outdated VOC Methods and Surveys
Traditional methods like VOC (Voice of the Customer) insights and surveys have their place, but they often fall short in today's complex environment. They tend to focus on surface-level data and fail to capture the deep, nuanced understanding required for groundbreaking innovation. A study by McKinsey found that companies that use advanced customer analytics are 23 times more likely to outperform their competitors in acquiring new customers and 19 times more likely to be profitable. By utilizing advanced analytics, AI-driven trend analysis, and real-time customer feedback loops, companies can gain insights that are not just informative but transformative, guiding your invention process toward creating something that truly resonates with the market.
2. Develop Dynamic and Layered Value - Make It 10 Times Better
In a crowded market, incremental improvements won't cut it. To stand out, your innovation needs to be exponentially better than what's currently available. Research from Deloitte indicates that 71% of executives say their companies’ innovation strategies are primarily focused on incremental improvements, yet those that focus on disruptive innovation are more likely to achieve market leadership. This means developing dynamic and layered value within your product, technology, or service. By aiming for a tenfold improvement, you ensure that your invention isn't just a step forward—it's a leap.
3. Build a Comprehensive Pre-Launch Strategy
Even the most brilliant invention can falter without a thoughtful and thorough pre-launch strategy. According to Harvard Business Review, 80% of new products fail to reach their revenue goals because of poor planning and execution during the pre-launch phase . It's essential to consider every aspect of the market and competitive landscape, customer segmentation, and positioning. Focus on creating anticipation and demand before your product even hits the market. This preparation phase is about building a strong foundation so that when you do launch, you're not just entering the market—you’re dominating it from day one.
4. Launch with a Big Splash - Leveraging Omni-Channel Marketing
The launch of your innovation is your moment to make a big impact. In today’s digital age, a successful launch strategy must be omnichannel, utilizing every available platform and method to build momentum quickly. Research shows that companies using omnichannel marketing strategies retain 89% of their customers, compared to 33% for companies with weak omnichannel strategies. This means combining traditional marketing approaches like PR and advertising with modern tactics such as influencer partnerships, social media campaigns, and digital content marketing. A well-orchestrated launch not only grabs attention but also builds lasting brand loyalty and market share.

The business world is fixated on artificial intelligence (AI) and its potential to both benefit and harm. In fact, we spend so much time obsessing over machine intelligence that we often overlook the true superpower: human intelligence (HI). Here are four key insights from my upcoming book, Human Experience Innovation, that you should consider as you prepare to integrate AI into your enterprise strategies.What is Human Experience Innovation?Human experience innovation is the formal process of gaining insights, developing strategies, and implementing actions to enhance the experiential value for the human ecosystem you serve. This includes customers, buyers, employees, patients, or, if you're an association, members. At the end of the day, we must recognize human intelligence as our greatest enterprise asset and human experience value as our most significant value proposition.Get Real and Actionable InsightsMost organizations rely on surveys and other sterile data signals to understand what matters to the people they serve. However, innovation requires actionable insights. Leveraging outdated methods to gauge what customers and employees care about is a recipe for failure. Instead, consider using advanced techniques like collaborative ideation, insight hackathons, and improved data analytics.Examples of Insight Hackathons:
Insight hackathons bring together customer-facing stakeholders with a specific innovation target in mind to create new solutions and improve experiences. For instance, a hackathon could be centered around reducing friction and confusion in the onboarding process for new customers. By focusing on this specific challenge, participants can collaborate to develop innovative approaches that significantly enhance the customer experience.Complement HI with TechnologyAI and other technologies should be seen as tools to complement, not replace, human intelligence. For example, leveraging robotic process automation (RPA) can automate repetitive and non-human tasks, freeing up valuable time for your team to focus on what humans do best: being human. According to a recent McKinsey & Company study, using RPA can improve efficiencies by as much as 30% by allowing AI to handle the heavy lifting of repetitive tasks. This, in turn, empowers your team to focus on activities that require human intelligence and creativity.Build Holistic StrategiesMany organizations only focus on one of the five participants within the human experience ecosystem. To deliver exceptional value to your marketplace, you must gain insights across all participants in your ecosystem. This holistic approach enables you to create better experiences that improve human value. Strategies should encompass not just technology but also the human elements that drive success.Human Intelligence and Experiential Value Are the New MandateIn an era of digital ubiquity and rapid change, organizations need to prioritize human intelligence and experiential value. Yes, this requires a budget, dedicated people, and a commitment to a strategy supported from the top of your organization, including the Board of Directors.Organizations must begin discussing how they will serve the human ecosystem by leveraging new practices and technologies. Artificial intelligence is a tool, but it is useless without human intelligence to architect and enhance experiential value. By combining human creativity with advanced tools like RPA and data analytics, businesses can create a future that’s not just innovative but also deeply human-centered.
