Innovation Method Map
30 innovation methods mapped across 5 project stages
Most innovation projects fail because teams use the right method at the wrong stage. The Innovation Method Map is a free printable A3 poster mapping 30 innovation methods across the 5 stages they actually serve: Discover, Frame, Ideate, Validate, and Scale. Designed for founders, researchers, consultants, designers, and innovation teams. Print it, pin it beside your desk, and use it as a practical working reference.
I made this because I kept seeing the same pattern across innovation projects:
Teams reaching for the wrong method at the wrong stage.
People brainstorming before they understood the user.
Validating before they’d framed the problem.
Scaling before they’d tested assumptions.
So this poster is designed as a practical reference rather than a rigid process.
The goal is simple:
Find the stage you’re actually in → choose a method that fits → run it well.
It’s completely free because the bigger goal is making better innovation practice more accessible and easier to navigate.
Curious:
What’s the innovation method you think people misuse most often?
