On reading this I was struck by how this is not limited to private sector innovation. Indeed, the discussion of how a dedicated unit should work on the feedback it receives, be based on staff nominally outside the general routine work but also including some line staff, and learn from mistakes, made me thing of the kinds of policy analysis units frequently promoted for industrial policy management. In the Rodrik model of industrial policy, there is a need for a dedicated unit which collects information, distributes information, identifies trends and identifies bottlenecks to investment and private sector expansion.
Is this then the innovation model for the public sector?
How can this be taken further to tie in with and improve industrial policy?
