Deriving benefits from Theory of Change for innovation programming in the public and private sector

Le résumé fourni par la source

Theory of Change is a tool that is now fairly commonplace in the public sector, but less so in industry and business. This chapter sets out an example of its application for both the public and private sector in developing and commercializing innovative products to help homes manage energy consumption. It shows how Theory of Change helped the innovators to systematize their strategy, develop a shared vision, test design hypotheses and measure impact. The chapter also shows how Theory of Change can help innovators in the private sector to: draw explicit links between their product and change, encapsulate complexity in the target environment, understand human behaviour and its effects on the success of a product, convene key stakeholders and support adaptive design.
