Zusammenfassung
In diesem Beitrag wird die konzeptuelle Plattform Innovari präsentiert, mit deren Hilfe kollaborative, digitale Innovationsprozesse im Unternehmen unterstützt werden können. In einer sich schnell verändernden globalisierten Welt, die von technologischem Wandel geprägt ist, müssen Unternehmen die Fähigkeit zur Innovation ausbauen. Verteilte Arbeit und Spezialisierung von Wissen führen dazu, dass digitale Innovationslösungen in den Vordergrund rücken. Hindernisse hierbei sind jedoch verankert in ineffizienter Kollaboration, festgesetzten Hierarchien und psychologischen Bürden, die die gemeinsame Arbeit erschweren.
Das Tool Innovari unterstützt die Kollaboration mit einer moderierenden künstlichen Intelligenz in Form eines Chat Bots und einem durch Spielmechaniken motivierenden Prozess bei der Findung von Innovationen. Verschiedenste Mechanismen helfen dabei, die Vorzüge vielfältiger Gruppen zu nutzen, um unkonventionelle Denkweisen zu stimulieren und so bessere Ergebnisse kollaborativer Prozesse zu ermöglichen.
Abstract
This article presents the conceptual platform Innovari, which can be used to support collaborative, digital innovation processes in enterprises. The rapidly changing globalized world is characterized by technological change. Enterprises must expand their ability to innovate in order to stay relevant. Distributed work and specialization of knowledge lead to digital innovation solutions coming to the fore. Obstacles are anchored in inefficient collaboration, fixed hierarchies and psychological burdens that complicate collaborative work.
The Innovari platform supports collaboration with moderating artificial intelligence in the form of chatbots and gamification elements. Various mechanisms help to use the advantages of diverse groups to stimulate unconventional ways of thinking. Innovari enables better results in collaborative processes and thus finding innovations.
