Previous research has shown that the application of design-led innovation to manufacturing businesses contributed to innovation across their business model, often repositioning the business and its offerings in the market. This article presents findings from a study where the researcher was embedded in an Australian firm, working four days per week for 11 months and using action research to apply design-led innovation. Deep insights from stakeholders were translated with the company staff into new value propositions for the company. This research demonstrates the largely untapped potential of an experienced designer as an innovation catalyst to help firms develop customer-inspired innovation as they use design-led innovation to overcome barriers and recognize opportunities within a changing market context. This study contributes new knowledge regarding benefits of design-led innovation in dynamic environments.}, keywords = {customer insights, design-led innovation, innovation catalyst, manufacturing}, issn = {1927-0321}, doi = {http://doi.org/10.22215/timreview/997}, url = {http://timreview.ca/article/997}, author = {Peter Townson and Judy Matthews and Cara Wrigley} }
