Business Creators Radio Show With Adam Hommey Turning Innovation Into a Science, With Tony Ulwick
Meet Tony Ulwick, a trailblazer in the world of innovation. As CEO of the consulting powerhouse Strategyn, Tony is the mastermind behind the groundbreaking Outcome-Driven Innovation® (ODI) process. For 30 years, his method has transformed giants like Coca-Cola, Amazon, IBM, and Abbott, proving that innovation isn’t just about luck—it’s about strategy.
Tony’s journey began on IBM’s ill-fated PCjr project, a costly misstep that inspired him to rethink how products are developed. Determined to solve this challenge, he created ODI, a proven system that empowers companies to consistently design products that people truly need. His very first success? Helping Cordis Corporation develop the revolutionary stent, which became the fastest-growing medical device in history.
Tony’s influence in the innovation space rivals legends like Nolan Bushnell of Atari and Kevin Harrington of Shark Tank. Plus, he’s made ODI open-source, offering invaluable insights to anyone eager to master the art of product development.
