Offy - Innovation
Innovation is an essential COSMIC Core value of Officience. In every day life, how could that be put in practice ?
Sylvain PIERRE formulated in February 2015 : Innovation = Think out of the Box
We encourage creativity and innovation and are willing to accept the risks that come with it. This attitude is at the root of the continuous improvement that is part of our promise.
We are having a strong debate here in Paris about whether continuous improvement is true innovation, or if only disruptive changes could be qualified as such. In this context, Innovation is in its broader sense and encompass also creativity, so doing things differently in search for an improvement. Keep in mind that Innovation is at the core of our mission statement as well.
Innovation (examples)
- “I developed this VBA tool, it saves me 2 hours of work per day.”
- “I just read an article yesterday about a new process of recruitment that seems to fit our organization, I would like to do a pilot for it.”
Not so Innovation (examples)

- “That’s how all the other companies are doing.”
