An objective situational test

was co-created by University Ghent & Creax, a leading consultancy firm on innovation. The research was led by Prof. dr. Frederik Anseel & his department of Work Psychology and Behavioral Economics. The findings of the theoretical research were validated by a reference group of 50 innovation experts working for customers of Creax. A mind map model was created. Instead of a subjective self-assessment, we developed an objective Situational Judgement test to map the innovation skills of people. INNDUCE.me was born.

Based on a psychological algorithm

The research started from a list of 60 potential skills needed for innovation. Finally we identified 20 innovation skills & 3 expert profiles to be on an innovation team: Ideator, Champion & Implementer.

Very seldomly we find those 3 basic profiles present in 1 person & if we do, this is the ideal person to take up the role of Innovation Master. Other potential members of an Innovation Dream Team are selected for different reasons such as knowledge & expertise in a specific domain. They are identified by the assessment as Innovation Contributors & Innovation Partner. Although they play a vital role in the success of the team, they don’t take up a leading role in the innovation team.
