Designed over 7 years by Dr Ralph Kerle, an international leader in organisational creativity, measuring innovation is now more relevant to business than ever before. The MIX offers much needed clarity and best-certainty ahead of increased innovation investment in a field where ambiguity reigns.

What is the MIX

The Management Innovation Index measures innovation capabilities in organizations. It is customized to fit any organization, tuning into management and operational activities at enterprise or departmental levels to establish innovation benchmarks.

A survey containing 32 questions collects all the data necessary from across the organization, creating the initial innovation measurement and benchmark. 

This rigorous system is based on four fundamental elements:

 
 

Principles

The principles of organizational economics recognizes organizations operate like markets. Once an organization thoroughly understands how its market operates, it can construct insightful decision making models that achieve innovation goals quicker, more efficiently and more imaginatively.

Metrics

The MIX uses regression analysis to build a model of an organization's innovation capacity, measuring creative leadership behaviours; unveiling patterns for innovation capabilities development and identifying key areas impeding innovation.

Putting your organisation through it. What will it look like? How will it work?...

1. The crucial first step is understanding your organization's unique operational context. Market, growth stage, operations.

2. The engine of the MIX is it's ability to diagnose multiple vectors, datapoints and inputs - synthesizing them in their unique context.

3. Every datapoint, every aspiration has it's implication. The MIX maps their interrelationship across the organization.

4. Using over 22,000 datapoints from across the world, the MIX analytic measures specific relevance of the input data, compiling results in an information rich report of findings and recommendations.

5. Recommendations are formulated by Dr Ralph Kerle and leading international statisticians, reflecting the unique characteristics of each organisation.

6. Once benchmarked, it is then possible to periodically measure the organisation's progress unitarily, gaining insight into anticipated success or identifying need for adjustment.
