Mandates, metrics, and momentum decide whether great ideas ever reach the boardroom. In this episode of the Innovation Storytellers Show, I sit down with Jonathan Livescault, Managing Director at Itonics, to unpack how enterprise innovators move from hunches to hard results.

Jonathan shares the origin of Itonics’ “Big Picture” framework, built to give leaders a clear mandate, shared governance, and the right KPIs across the entire innovation lifecycle. He explains why ideation is only one piece of the puzzle, how strategic foresight defines the “where to play,” and what it takes to run disciplined pilots that fold fast and scale faster.

You’ll hear how global brands replace scattered spreadsheets with a single source of truth, create a visible performance cockpit for executives, and align risk appetite with a balanced portfolio of bets. We explore culture, transparency, and the handoff problem that kills promising pilots, then dig into practical ways to set stage gates, secure ownership, and measure progress in real time.

If you’ve ever struggled to turn innovation into a repeatable business function, this conversation offers a step-by-step view of the processes, mindsets, and tooling that make it work at scale. Tune in to learn how to give your program a clear mandate, choose smarter metrics, and build momentum that lasts.
