Tony Ulwick (Outcome-Driven Innovation)

Tony Ulwick is an innovator known for developing the Outcome-Driven Innovation (ODI) framework. This approach focuses on understanding what customers want from a product or service by identifying their desired outcomes. Instead of just gathering customer opinions, ODI seeks to clarify specific needs and desired results, guiding companies to create solutions that truly resonate with consumers. By prioritizing these outcomes, businesses can effectively innovate and improve their offerings, leading to greater customer satisfaction and market success. Essentially, it shifts the focus from what companies think customers want to what customers actually need.
