AIM Pulse

Continuous measurement of innovation capability via weekly or monthly pulse surveys across 45 Innovation Levers.

5 min per respondent, weekly or monthly

When to Use

When annual surveys are giving stale data. When a transformation needs in-flight signal, not post-mortem analysis. When you want to see drift across teams or business units.

Materials

  • AIM Platform (innovation.io)
  • Innovation Levers reference sheet

Common Pitfalls

  • Pulse fatigue. Cap at one survey per week and rotate which Levers are measured.
  • Acting on a single data point. Trends across 4–6 weeks matter; single weeks are noise.

Examples

Replacing the annual innovation survey

A Global 1000 manufacturer replaced its 90-question annual innovation survey with rotating 5-minute weekly pulses tied to the AIM Platform. Response rate moved from 38% to 81% within two quarters.
