That’s the goal
Cesar Malacon © 2015. The Hi-Board, a tool of the Bright Path Innovation philosophy
That’s it. That is the conclusion.
After years of study, research, and professional practice, there can be no doubts: it's because of complexity.
One of the biggest barriers for corporate innovation is the
complexity of innovative ideas.Because of this, I developed a tool
to help people get started with innovation in a less painful way.
The tool evolved toward a methodology.
I want to prove it useful and relevant so that many more can
benefit from it. Cesar Malacon © 2015. The Hi-Board, a tool of the Bright Path Innovation

• Bring general clarity to the project’s DNA with visual aids.
• Understand the “business must-haves” - key to the success of any innovative project.
• Find out -sincerely- where does your organization stand on its way to success.
• This will allow you to select the ideas that better align with your strategy and make better resource allocation decisions, and therefore
• decrease the risk of your innovation portfolio and increase organizational morale. Also,
• Significantly reduce time spent around innovation projects and get less human churn in the process. Increase your odds to be more profitable.
• Finally, the Hi-board is your guide to analyze your projects, and your script to pitch them to the final decision makers at the same time.

What is the deal?
I’m in the search of valuable feedback from morepractitioners. The Hi-Board is already practical. However, the more opinions I get from the field, the better it can get.
If you have to run a project that requires allocation of resources such as time, employees, money,and some risk tolerance, you should give it a try.

Upon agreement, the following formats might be considered:

Guidance
As a first step we will converse about your needsand current understanding of the situation - through whatever communication tool you prefer Skype - FaceTime - Hangouts - Phone
What is the deal?
How it works
Cesar Malacon © 2015. The Hi-Board, a tool of the Bright Path Innovation philosophy
• An In-house session with key representatives of the team involved.
• I will facilitate a dynamic conversation walking yourteam throughout the elements of the Hi-Board.
• With your help as a lead team member, we will:
• Dot the i’s and cross the t’s
• Clarify the likeliness of your project to reach success
• Make everyone involved know what to expect and how to contribute
One day Workshop
Cesar Malacon © 2015. The Hi-Board, a tool of the Bright Path Innovation philosophy
• We will build an agenda of Skype calls for your project
• Four 45 min calls during a fixed period of time
1. Understanding the situation - understanding the Hi-Board
2. Delimiting the action plan, agreeing what to do - I will contribute with recommendations for you to organize a meeting with your team
3. Reviewing the outcomes of the meeting
4. Amend and hone
Online innovation program

Concept presentation - Preliminary Guidance
• We will try to fit the previous formula to one or two calls, and concentrate on
1. Understanding the situation - understanding the Hi-Board
2. Delimiting the action plan, agreeing what to do - I will contribute with recommendations for you to organise a meeting with your team
3. Reviewing the outcomes of the meeting
4. Amend and hone
• The main difference will be the level of detail and the opportunity to react and adapt to the results of each stage

What is the deal?
As I’m looking for feedback and commentary from executives, I’m giving away my research, experience and time.
In exchange I expect:
• Your commitment to the project you will run using the Hi-Board and
• Your professional feedback after the completion of our test-drive in written format.
• Also, a face to face conversation so I can capture all your experience with the tool.
How much is it
For the one day workshop, the only contribution I would require from you is the cost of travel expenses*
*Airplane fares, one or two nights hotel and meals for one person

SummaryThe invitation
What is your Benefit
What is your Cost
I want to polish an already powerful and useful tool for innovators so it can change the way innovation happens. I am looking for test drivers so we can improve it until the last point and help more executives the best way possible.
The Hi-Board is highly praised by a wide community of practitioners. You can get all benefits for free and contribute to its further development with your input. Nothing to lose, a lot to gain.
Your commitment. Your contribution is feedback and commentary.Your honesty (you might realize the project is a bad idea, or that your organization is
not ready to undertake it). In the case of workshops, my travel expenses.
