Also, consider today’s advice from KL Communications President Kevin Lonnie:

To inspire collaboration in a co-creation environment, make gamification a central tenet to the experience. For example, have participants work together during certain activities to earn participation rewards.

This inspires them to work together, but also appeals to their sense of competition, so they are willing to collaborate and work together to earn more points and fully compete.

And, consider today’s advice from KL Communications President Kevin Lonnie:

With increasing pressure to demonstrate ROI out of the research function, customer co-creation provides an opportunity to boost the odds of a successful product introduction.

Find some low hanging fruit, where nothing has worked particularly well in a long while, but also be very selective and wait for the perfect opportunity. Aim for the fences, but protect yourself by keeping expectations low.
