Innovation in Deloitte

Gary Coleman, DTT Manufacturing Industry Group Leader speaks of innovation in Deloitte. Recently voted by member firm clients in Australia as the most innovative professional services firm, as part of Business Review Weekly’s St. George Bank professional services client award, Deloitte Australia’s innovation program has become a beacon for clients seeking a trigger to supercharge growth. Inspired by the success of the initial program in Deloitte Southern Africa, Deloitte Australia encourages its people to explore innovative ways to grow business for clients; to think of new products and services for the market; and to make improvements in internal processes and service delivery.

Deloitte United States has begun a similar program called “Innovation Quest,” which has also been fostering a culture of innovation. All ideas submitted to Innovation Quest are reviewed, added to an “Idea Bank” and posted to a blog. Ideas recommended for further exploration are offered R&D support and resources to create a preliminary business case. If an idea is ultimately recommended for implementation, its contributors also receive a monetary award.
