Most companies say innovation is “strategic.”
Far fewer lead it from the top.
Boston Consulting Group (BCG)’s 2021 Most Innovative Companies report reveals a stark gap:
🔹️Nearly 90% of high innovation performers have clear C-suite ownership.
🔹️Among underperformers, it’s about 20%.
Same word,Innovation.
Very different leadership.
In top companies, CEOs don’t just fund innovation.
They shape the ambition, stay close to the portfolio, and embed it into strategy and capital decisions.
As Michael Ringel notes, leading teams actively manage innovation and engage directly, not delegate it to a lab.
The message is simple:
Innovation results don’t just follow investment.
They follow ownership. 💡
