Over the past decade, companies have embraced innovation with enthusiasm—Chief Innovation Officers have been hired, and in-house incubators, accelerators, and co-creation labs have been launched. CEOs have spoken with passion about “making everyone an innovator” and the need “to disrupt our own business.” But after years of experimentation, senior leaders are asking: Is this still just an experiment, or are we in it for the long haul?

It was a large investment (hundreds of millions) and one of the company’s high value strategic initiatives.

Envy is one of the seven deadly sins in agile. It often manifests as copying others, thinking that if it works for them, it'll work for us. But is this approach effective? As we delve deeper, we find that the waters get murkier. The infamous "Spotify model" serves as a prime example of this.
