The topic of idea management is becoming increasingly important in many companies. It supports the systematic collection, evaluation and implementation of ideas in order to increase innovative strength and efficiency. Targeted support in individual steps is particularly important in order to successfully unleash the process in the department. One example of this is the sixth step of KIROI, which is analysed in practical terms below.<\/p>\n

Idea management as a success factor in the department<\/h2>\n

Idea management refers to the structured handling of suggestions for improvement and innovations within a company[1][2]. This allows a lively culture of ideas to be created in the department, in which employees are actively involved. This generates valuable ideas that often lead to better work processes or new products.<\/p>\n

Many companies report that idea management supports processes that not only reduce costs, but also increase employee motivation[6]. In practice, it has been shown that it is important to define clear structures and roles. Regular dialogue and transparent feedback play an important role here.<\/p>\n

BEST PRACTICE with one customer (name hidden due to NDA contract)
An innovative idea management system was introduced in a production department that enabled employees to submit digital suggestions easily. The result was faster identification of weak points and a 15 % improvement in process quality within a year.<\/p>\n

BEST PRACTICE with one customer (name hidden due to NDA contract)
A service company integrated the sixth step of KIROI to implement ideas after their evaluation phase together with the teams involved. This led to greater acceptance and improved coordination processes at departmental level.<\/p>\n

BEST PRACTICE with one customer (name hidden due to NDA contract)
In one IT department, external support coaching helped the team to establish the KIROI process in the department in a targeted manner. This enabled complex innovation projects to be implemented more efficiently and internal communication to be strengthened at the same time.<\/p>\n

The sixth step of KIROI: implementation and integration in everyday life<\/h2>\n

The sixth step of KIROI focusses on the implementation of the selected ideas after their evaluation and concept development. At this stage, the practical transfer into everyday working life and operational integration begins[1][7].<\/p>\n

An important task in this step is the provision of sufficient resources and support from managers. They help to ensure that the measures are implemented smoothly and that acceptance within the team increases. Without clear coordination and follow-up, good ideas can otherwise easily fizzle out.<\/p>\n

Practical examples from industry show how important it is to react flexibly to challenges during implementation. For example, a suggestion for improvement in production can initially be launched as a pilot project and then gradually transferred to other areas.<\/p>\n

Accompanying coaching can provide employees and managers with valuable impetus during this phase. It helps to recognise resistance at an early stage and communicate it transparently. At the same time, it promotes trust in the process and the sustainable anchoring of innovations.<\/p>\n
