The typical project portfolio, [says Jim Andrew, senior partner at consultancy BCG] can be divvied into three parts. A third are proven winners. Another third are still in their infancy; it's too early to tell how they'll turn out. The last third have either outlived their usefulness, never got off the ground, or never will. Even so, they've been kept alive for any number of misguided reasons, from favoritism to sheer force of habit. Sound familiar? Then maybe you should examine your full slate of products -- and advocate pulling the plug on any losers. -- Steve Fox. Redefining innovation.
