ALEXANDRIA, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Veteran thought leader and innovation strategist, Jeneanne Rae, launched Motiv Strategies, the first woman-owned firm completely dedicated to helping its clients drive growth and productivity through innovation.
“As more and more entities recognize the need to create new products, services and solutions they need help to structure themselves appropriately to do so, and to train their people on the special tools and techniques used”
For more than twenty years, Rae, has consulted in the areas of design and innovation strategy for a vast array of S&P 500 firms as well as non-profits and government agencies. Under her leadership, Motiv’s services have been organized to respond to the demands for an increased degree of innovation expected from large organizations who serve customers and citizens alike.
“As more and more entities recognize the need to create new products, services and solutions they need help to structure themselves appropriately to do so, and to train their people on the special tools and techniques used,” says Rae. Among Motiv’s offerings, Service Design is expected to be one of the most important growth areas for the firm since few consultants offer such capability building services in the United States.
For clients who need to develop specific strategies to address market opportunities, Motiv has also developed a suite of services to help clients create new ideas and solutions fast. “We see clients needing help in three areas where the application of innovation process and methods can make a huge difference – opportunity space identification, growth platform development, and customer experience design,” says Rae. Motiv strategy programs will be applied to the range of difficult problems found today in industry, non-profits and government alike. Common issues for Motiv clients include finding the “white space” in an addressable market, building new service revenues around an existing offering, or creating new customer experiences to drive greater satisfaction and loyalty.
As a woman-owned firm, Motiv, will take advantage of programs to support businesses of this type in both the corporate and government sectors.
