How a 150-Year-Old Manufacturing Company Is Leveraging Online Innovation to Drive Cultural Transformation

Like at many manufacturing companies, innovation at Baxi Heating was thought to be solely about developing new products and technology. Baxi wanted to shift its organizational culture and make innovation a cooperative team effort. The leadership team knew it needed an institution-wide cultural transformation, as well as new resources to support a program that facilitated innovation and collaboration.

 

The company sought out an innovation platform that would act as a central point for wide-scale collaboration and a structured, systematic way to manage the innovation process. In this case study, we look at how Baxi partnered with HYPE Innovation to transition to a corporate culture that encourages and embraces an open, collaborative innovation environment.
