Supercharge Your Growth

Your Best Growth Opportunities Are Often Invisible.

The Problem:

Top-down strategy often overlooks the friction that kills efficiency.
Frontline insights stay hidden, chaotic, or misaligned.

Carlson’s Law:
“Top-down innovation tends to be orderly but dumb. Bottom-up innovation tends to be chaotic but smart.”
The real challenge is turning that chaotic, smart frontline knowledge into aligned, profitable execution.

The Cost of Missed Innovation

If less than 30% of your revenue over the past three years comes from new innovations, you have an innovation gap, and it’s costing you.

Most companies and VC portfolios struggle to convert ideas into outcomes.
Executives launch top-down initiatives that sound good in meetings but fail in the field.
Meanwhile, practical ideas from frontline teams rarely surface or align with strategy.

That disconnect between strategy and execution stalls growth, wastes time, and kills momentum.
Innovation becomes noise instead of results.

We Build Focused Innovation Engines

Idea IQ installs structured systems that:

Capture signal from your frontline teams
Align idea generation with your strategy
Challenge teams to create solutions for real priorities
Filter and prioritize for ROI
Execute reliably for measurable results.

No chaos. No wasted ideas. Just disciplined, profitable innovation.

The Result:
You don’t just generate more ideas.
You build a repeatable, revenue-generating innovation engine, the kind that creates real exits, scalable growth, and long-term differentiation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at innovate@idea-iq.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What is an innovation engine?

An innovation engine is a repeatable system that captures, filters, and executes high-value ideas from within your organization. At Idea IQ, we align those ideas with your growth strategy to deliver measurable ROI.

How does Idea IQ help VC, PE firms and mid-size companies?

We install structured innovation systems that connect frontline insights to portfolio strategy, scaling innovation, and improving EBITDA across holdings

What is an innovation gap?

If less than 30 % of your revenue comes from innovations developed in the last three years, you have an innovation gap. We audit and close that gap using our stage-gate and ROI-tracking process.

How fast will we see results?

Our 90-Day Engagement installs a full innovation engine in 12 weeks, producing measurable ROI by quarter-end.

What makes Idea IQ different from other Utah consulting firms?

Most consultants deliver reports. We install systems that your own team can sustain innovation that compounds long after we leave.

Why does Idea IQ focus on frontline ideas instead of executive brainstorming?

Because 80 % of profitable innovations come from the people closest to the work.
We install systems that channel their insight upward—so leadership strategy stays grounded in reality and growth compounds faster.

What is “psychological value,” and why does it matter for innovation?

Psychological value is when people feel valued for contributing.
When employees know their ideas are heard and acted on, idea flow accelerates, burnout drops, and ROI rises.
We design innovation systems that make value creation emotional as well as financial.

How does Idea IQ make innovation sustainable after the engagement ends?

We don’t rely on consultants or new headcount.
Your team runs the system.
We embed daily habits, digital tools, and metrics that keep idea flow alive long after we leave.

How does Idea IQ help during times of change or uncertainty?

Change often disengages people.
Our systems rebuild trust by making innovation the language of progress—turning disruption into alignment and forward motion.

What results do companies usually see?

Clients typically recover 20–35 % in lost innovation ROI within the first year.
Beyond numbers, they see energized teams, clearer priorities, and measurable growth that continues compounding each quarter.
