Lotte Christiansen Successful implementation of innovation projects

Based on the presentation, what are your project experiences with constraints and enablers for succesful implementation of innovation or research projects:

Related to scope?Related to power and commitment?Related to capacity and capability?

Please list 5 key attention (or action) points

Kim HamliHow to realize ideas in a hospital and to share successful innovations through Induct Innovation Management Software

Based on the presentation, what are your experiences with constraints and enablers for succesful implementation of projects:

Related to identifying implementable ideas in your organisationRelated to ability to share and implement ideas from other organisationsRelated to achieving funding and resources for ideas going into a project fase?

Please list 5 key attention (or action) points

Dr. Peter LazesInnovative Employee and Union Driven Activities in U.S.Public Hospitals in Order to Improve Patient Care

Based on the presentation, what are the key challenges in terms of implementation needed changes and what are the resources (human and financial) needed to support and sustain such changes?

Please list 5 key attention (or action) points

Main DiscussionWhat are the main attention points for securing succesful implementation of projects within healthcare?

What are the main constraints and enablers?

What would be possible action points to ensure succesful implementation?

Please agree on, and list, the 10 most important points based on the previous discussions

15 key points for securing succesful implementation

Internal collaboration between the silos is neededInvolvement & commitment at different levels – getting people (across the hierarki) in the same room

Including decision making commitmentTake many smaller steps rather than one big stepMake it measurable (both hard facts and soft parameters)

Value based measurables (Both what is and what is not measurable)Involve end-users ex. patients (ensure you solve their actual needs)Innovation is a learning process for the organisation as well as the involved employeesSmart, strong and brave leadership is neededMoney is needed (reimbursement for the involved/ ekstra finances for the implementations fase)

15 key points for securing succesful implementation

Change in the reimbursement system to favor and reward implementation of research and innovation

Patient / caretaker expectations are changing (ex in relation e-health systems)Patientcare is changing, this is a driver for implementation

Clear and transparent process for innovation, for instance in relation to IT & Procurement with the focus of learningClever ways for attaining financial reimbursement for innovation (ex. earn money via clinical trail for reinvestment in employee education)Go for the global perspective (look beyond the national /regional need = taking global company perspective in to consideration)Time

It takes time to be innovative (company vs hospital: Time definition differs)

Time allocated toward innovators (employees)Trust

Be openminded – do not pre judge the other party (business or hospital)

No short cuts to trusting the other partner - it takes time to build the needed level of trust
