How to allocate an innovation group in the company

There are seven different types of how to locate an innovation group within the company.

  1. Put the innovation group inside an existing business unit.
  2. Create a division within a current unit specifically for innovations.
  3. Add it to R&D.
  4. Have innovation report to a dedicated senior staff function in line with the top leadership.
  5. Create a whole new ventures division.
  6. Have the innovation group report directly to the CEO.
  7. Adopt "permissionless" structures.

If you are new to this, use one of the first four. The last three requires a larger organisational change.
