Why Innovation Efforts Often Miss the Mark
At least 40% of new products and services fail because teams rush past customer discovery and rely on narrow viewpoints.
Gotara’s Proven Framework to Flip the Odds
Focus on the Real Problem
Understand unmet or unarticulated customer needs before building anything.
Build in Diversity
Cross‑functional, multi‑background teams spark richer ideas and better decisions.
Use Rapid Prototyping Cycles
Iterate early and often with customers, from paper sketches to working models—to stay on track.
Accelerate from Idea to Execution
We combine innovation strategy consulting with neuroscience-based upskilling and targeted coaching—so your teams reduce risk, align cross-functional efforts, and bring bold ideas to market with confidence.
Case Study — Richard’s Team
Role: Chief Product Officer, 21 Years’ Experience
Challenge
Two recent launches under‑performed and yet leadership was eager to green‑light another concept, but board members pressure demanded rigorous de‑risking, faster validation, and a morale boost for an exhausted product organization.
Action
Through Gotara’s strategic consulting partnership, Richard enrolled his entire product group in Gotara’s on‑the‑job upskilling and coaching program. Team members spent just 15 minutes a day on laser‑focused skills to strengthen practical innovation and customer insight.
Results
“Our prototypes are more successful, and the team is more engaged. It’s a win‑win!”
Within 8 weeks, early‑stage prototypes moving from concept to validated user tests jumped from 40% to 68%, and employee engagement scores rose 6 points, positioning the new idea for a confident, data‑driven launch.
