This Deliverable presents the Final Exploitation report and Exploitation and Sustainability
Plan for IGUANA. It revises and updates the Report and Plan presented in Deliverable 9.1.
The Report firstly sets out the overall methodology through which the Exploitation and
Sustainability Plan was developed. This is based on an ‘Action Learning’ approach that
covers: preparatory actions; initial Plan; implementation actions; analysis and integration;
final Plan.
It sets out the IGUANA assets, how these can be used to provide services for potential users
and the decision taken by the IGUANA consortium with regard to the utilisation of these
assets, including agreed IPR. The key assets identified are: an Emotional Intelligence and
Organisational Intelligence competence framework that maps out EI and OI competences,
their attributes and their learning outcomes; an online tool that applied the competence
framework to assess the levels of emotional intelligence on a personal level, based on 12 EI
competences, and levels of organisational intelligence, based on 7 OI competences, from the
perspective of organisations; an online course developed to help individuals and organisations
to increase emotional and organisational intelligence with the collective aim to reduce
resistance to change; an online community to collect and share knowledge about this topic;
supporting tools to embed the tools, courses and community.
The Deliverable reports on the exploitation actions that have been carried out by partners,
together with their outcomes and implications for IGUANA going forward. A total of 50
exploitation actions have been carried out. These covered both ‘primary’ and ‘secondary’
IGUANA target groups including Ministries of Education and Health; educational social
innovators and social entrepreneurs; training providers, teacher training institutions,
educational content providers; school leaders and school governors, future school leaders,
national school leaders associations, teachers; drugs and alcohol service providers; Young
Offender Education Centres; hospitals; UK NHS Citizen members.
The data analysis is then integrated into a SWOT analysis. The SWOT analysis concludes that
the main strengths of IGUANA are the lack of a comparable existing programme; the
availability of an established evidence base from the pilot evaluation to show that IGUANA
works and in what ways; the evidence of strong potential demand; the existence of an
established partnership; the high transferability to other sectors. The main weaknesses are
little capital available for development and start up investment; the lack of training and
consultancy partners currently engaged at the local level to deliver the programme. The
main opportunities are: a favourable policy environment; the need in the education sector
for systemic change and innovation; opportunities in the health, social innovation and youth
inclusion fields. The main threat is an already established EI assessment industry could take
advantage of IGUANA’s ‘open source’ environment to migrate the tools and colonise a
market.
On the basis of the exploitation results, a methodology for exploitation is proposed. This sets
out four possible service models and associated business models: an ‘Open Access’ model;
an ‘Intermediary’ model; an ‘Ecological’ model; a ‘Quadruple Helix’ model.
The final section of the Report outlines a Road Map for implementing this approach which
envisages a phased timetable starting with setting up the legal and business framework for
exploitation; identifying and engaging with partners and training providers; developing the
service models; revising the tools and content and carrying out targeted actions.
Annex I provides a provisional Service Offer.
1. Purpose of this document
The purpose of this document is to provide an outline for the exploitation activities and
sustainability of IGUANA beyond the lifetime of the project. It provides a review and update of
D9.1 – Exploitation Plan.
According to the IGUANA proposal, the main objectives of work package 9 – Exploitation – are to:

raise awareness of project and its outputs among potential users and new partners;

engage these groups in collaboration to develop networks;

develop a sustainability plan and business model for IGUANA products and services.
This report includes exploitation scenarios and business models, key market segments and sectors,
sources of revenue and funding for future development of IGUANA products and services; potential
end users, partners and networks. The report furthermore includes activities undertaken by the
project partners, their results and commitments from exploitation partners.
Against this background, this document presents below:





the methodology used to develop the sustainability and exploitation approach (Section 2)
the results of the implementation of this methodology (Section 3)
the final proposed approach and methodology for exploitation and sustainability (Section 4)
an implementation plan and timeline for implementing the approach (Section 5)
A draft Service Offer for delivering IGUANA services (Annex I).
2. Methodology used for developing the exploitation and sustainability
Plan
The overall approach to develop the proposed Plan for exploitation and sustainability was based on
an ‘action learning cycle’. This is depicted in Figure 1.

Actions
As Figure 1 shows, the exploitation action learning cycle consisted of five stages:
•
•
•
•
•
Stage 1: Preparatory Actions. This involved ‘scoping’ activities within the IGUANA
consortium, aimed at identifying the project assets and products; their ownership and IPR;
the likely consumers of these products; the evidence required to assess their usability and
value.
Stage 2: Production of the Deliverable 9.1: Exploitation Plan, using the results of the
preparatory actions and specifying the procedures to take the exploitation effort forward.
Stage 3: Implementation actions. These had two purposes. Firstly, collecting and analysing
primary data – from partners and from stakeholders – to add more depth to the
exploitation plan. Secondly, running exploitation events to publicise IGUANA products and
engage potential users of these products in future collaboration.
Stage 4: Analysis and integration. This stage entailed integrating and synthesising the results
of the preceding actions to provide inputs to the final phase of the cycle.
Stage 5: Final Exploitation and Sustainability Plan. This entails the production of Deliverable
9. 2 (this Report) - an updated version of the earlier deliverable with a ‘roadmap’ that takes
IGUANA beyond the end of its funded life cycle.
3. Implementation of the Methodology
3.1
Preparatory Actions
In this phase, the IGUANA partners set up an Exploitation Workgroup. This met on-line and face to
face over the project duration. The group is a sub-group of the consortium. Its role was to oversee the
exploitation and sustainability strategy. It included representatives of the following partners: Arcola,
CEPCEP, ESHA and Contour. The main outcomes form the Working Group were: proof of the Iguana
approach and translation of the approach into a value added approach for exploitation partners.
3.1.1
The project assets
The project consortium partners have developed the following assets:
-
-
-
An Emotional Intelligence and Organisational Intelligence competence framework that maps
out EI and OI competences, their attributes and their learning outcomes.
An online tool that applied the competence framework to assess the levels of emotional
intelligence on a personal level, based on 12 EI competences, and levels of organisational
intelligence, based on 7 OI competences, from the perspective of organisations. This tool is
available online and can be used free of charge by individual end-users.
An online course. An online course has been developed to help individuals and organisations
to increase emotional and organisational intelligence with the collective aim to reduce
resistance to change.
An online community. This community will be used by people that are using the tools and the
courses to collect and share knowledge about this topic
Supporting tools to embed the tools, courses and community into organisational practice
In combination, these assets can be used to provide a collaborative learning environment within
schools (or indeed any organisation) in which students, staff and management feel safe and secure to
share their ideas, learn from each other and grow. The learning environment is delivered through the
IGUANA online platform, supported by face to face support from the IGUANA team. It provides
governors, head teachers and teachers with a self-directed programme aimed to help their schools to
innovate and change. It does this through:

giving explanations and an initial self-assessment exercise to help map the Emotional
Intelligence (EI) and Organisational intelligence (OI) of the participants and their schools;
 providing access at three levels to related learning and development content to develop in
each of the key EI and OI competencies (Discovery- simple explanations and resources to
introduce each of the concepts; Practical –resources to apply the learning in practice and
real life situations; Technical – articles and content to deepen understanding and apply to
continued practice).
 emphasising practice through a set of activities: the Theory of Change/Innovation workshop
engages participants in applying their learning in their own schools and provides practice
and cases for the Action Learning Sets.
 a Peer Review programme which involves a number of schools working and learning
together on specific themes in relation to the change work they are undertaking as part of
the IGUANA programme.
During the project, all assets have been made available to all, free of charge at the following address:
http://www.iguana-project.eu/
3.1.2
Validation of the assets
The Iguana approach have been validated in practice in a number of phases. During the European
School Heads Association’s General Assembly meeting in October 2013, over 50 representatives of
national school heads associations reviewed the tools and reported several areas of improvement.
The following tools and courses have been reviewed:


the ‘emotional well-being’ course;
leadership and authority course;

governance management;

and evaluation course
The feedback of the representatives of national school heads associations can be read online at:
http://iguanaportal.wikispaces.com/WP+6+Evaluation+of+4+and+5
The second step was the validation of the approach and the assets in pilot schools, within the context
of a more intensive evaluation of the IGUANA programme as a whole, and the collection of evidencebased conclusions on whether and in what ways the programme works. 12 educational enterprises
(11 schools and 1 adult ‘special needs’ centre) actively piloted the approach during the course of the
project and have underlined its validity. The results of the piloting phase are published at
http://iguanaportal.wikispaces.com/WP+6+Evaluation+of+4+and+5
The overall conclusion is that the Iguana tools and courses are a very effective means to reduce
resistance to change in schools. The key findings of the piloting and its evaluation, with reference to
the sustainability and exploitation of IGUANA, are presented in more detail in Section 3?? below.
3.1.3
Intellectual property rights
The consortium partners have decided that the tools and courses and other assets – with the
exception of consultancy services provided to users who need support in adapting the tools and
courses and with developing their Innovation Plans - will be made available free of charge, without IP
restrictions for non-commercial use. The purpose of this decision is to make the tools and courses
available for a broad community of end users, to test its validity and collect feedback.
For commercial entities, the IGUANA consortium has specified the intellectual property rights (IPR)
attached to each product.. The IPR Agreement typically specifies:

The Background , which refers to pre-existing IP rights that are required to implement the
project. It concerns any information, techniques, know-how, software and materials
(regardless of the form or medium in which they are disclosed or stored) that are provided by
one party to another for the use in the project.

The Foreground, which refers to the results know-how, inventions, software and other
identified IP that are generated in the framework of the project.

Access to and utilisation of the background and foreground, with respect to consortium
members, potential future users and the wider public.

The consortium partners decided that during the course of the project, the tools and courses
will be made available free of charge, without IP restrictions. The purpose of this decision was
to make the tools and courses available for a broad community of end users, to test its validity
and collect feedback.
The consortium partners have develop a Service Offer for commercial users. This sets out how
consultancy service will be provided to both ‘end-users’ and ‘intermediaries’ (e.g. training
providers). This is provided in Annex I to this Deliverable.

3.2
Implementation actions
The Stage 3 exploitation activities – implementation actions – can be divided into three sets:



Data collection and mapping
Awareness-raising and promotion
Events
3.2.1
Data collection and mapping
This focused on a stakeholder analysis of potential partners/users, based on a template to standardise
analysis. The Stakeholder Analysis has identified the ‘primary’ target: key groups with an interest in
the project and its outputs. These target groups are:
-
-
-
-
Educational innovation networks: groups of schools or companies that are focused on
implementing innovations at schools. The Iguana assets will enable them to reduce one of the
most important barriers to innovation: resistance to change
Leading schools. In most countries, leading schools are the schools that are leading in their
innovative approach. Most of them welcome visits from other schools. These leading schools
could pave the road to other interested schools.
Consulting and Training Companies. Consulting companies help schools implement innovative
pedagogic practices. The Iguana tools will enable them to enrich and broaden their service
offering.
School Heads Associations. School Heads Associations often offer consultancy services with
an innovative nature. These tools will enable school leaders to address resistance to change
and emotional intelligence at their schools.
In the latter phase of the project, the exploitation strategy was extended to explore the potential
transferability of IGUANA to other sectors beyond the educational world. Three ‘secondary’ target
groups were identified:



Social innovation networks: individual and clusters of organisations involved in social
innovation and social entrepreneurship, with a particular focus on ‘social technologies’.
These actors are generally recently-established and have a particular interest both in
improving their organisational effectiveness, and in engaging with ICT-based innovation
The Health sector: ministries, hospitals and other health providers, with an interest both in
the ‘emotional and mental well-being’ aspect of IGUANA and in organisational innovation
The youth inclusion sector: Ministries, service providers and third sector organisations
working in fields related to IGUANA, particularly youth offending, educational drop-outs and
‘NEETs’ (not in education, employment or training).
A database of potential partners and users was set up in the IGUANA ‘wiki’. This exploitation contacts
database consists of the following contacts:
-
Local consultancy firms focusing on schools.
National teacher associations
National school heads associations with a service practice.
Working groups and communities focusing on school heads and teachers
Pedagogical universities
3.2.2
Awareness-raising and promotion
The expected benefits have been translated into a value proposition and written down in the
exploitation leaflet that is published at http://iguanaportal.wikispaces.com/WP+9+Exploitation This
leaflet is used for exploitation and broad communication purposes.
In addition, the exploitation effort was linked to the broader dissemination strategy for IGUANA. A
total of 12 dissemination events were implemented, involving over 700 participants, plus the final
Conference in Dubrovnik, attended by 110 school heads.
3.2.3
Events
The contacts database was used to provide the foundation for a programme of exploitation events
the aim of which was to identify and engage with potential partners and users at a local and national
level. The events were mainly targeted at policy-makers, governance associations, school leaders,
consultancy firms and training providers.
Table 1 summarises the exploitation events carried out by the consortium partners. As Table 1 shows,
around 50 exploitation events were carried out in Croatia, Serbia, Lithuania, Portugal, UK, Ireland and
Greece, as well as a range of on-line events. These covered both ‘primary’ and ‘secondary’ IGUANA
target groups including:








Ministries of Education and Health
Educational social innovators and social entrepreneurs
Training providers, Teacher Training Institutions, educational content providers
School leaders and School Governors, future school leaders, National school leaders
associations, teachers
Drugs and alcohol service providers
Young Offender Education Centres
Hospitals
UK NHS Citizen members
Key outcomes of these events are:









Analysis of feedback from the events with the primary target group from the schools sector
confirmed there is overall strong interest in and demand for the IGUANA tools, learning
programme and services.
The ‘Open Discovery Space’, which includes a network of teachers who act as change agents
in their schools, have been invited to use IGUANA as part of the training of these workshops,
which are planned to be organised in all 20 countries by end of May 2015.
The Entreprenasium innovation network in the Netherlands will use the Iguana tool set as a
part of their standard implementation services.
An on-line community of school leaders and future school leaders has been established in
Ireland.
In Portugal, Iguana will be introduced as a separate module in the 5th edition of the
Innovative Leadership Programme, beginning April 2015, involving 50 school principals and
150 intermediate school leaders.
In Portugal, CEPCEP, the Ministry of Education and a number of school principals, are
underway to explore the financial and technical feasibility of running a sustainable Iguana
assistance to a first batch of about 15-20 schools interested in Iguana implementation.
Plans to run Iguana in schools of the Autonomous Region of Açores, included in a
customised Innovative Leaders Programme, are also under way and are at an advanced pilot
stage.
The programme will be extended as a pilot to the Autonomous Region of Açores, nine
atlantic islands, in the framework of a customised Innovative Leaders Programme and
integrated in an early school drop-out package project.
The events in Greece demonstrated the transferability of IGUANA to the drugs and alcohol
rehabilitation sector. KETHEA – the largest service provider in this sector in Greece – has
commissioned a roll-out of the programme nationally from May 2015.

There is interest from 3 Lisbon hospitals to train the hospitals’ top management using
IGUANA.

Analysis and integration of results
This sub-section presents additional analysis aimed at assessing the exploitation and sustainability
potential of IGUANA based on: a review of the results of the IGUANA piloting activities and their
evaluation; a brief assessment of the potential demand for IGUANA tools, learning programme and
services. This additional data analysis is then integrated with the results from the IGUANA
exploitation activities to provide a broad picture of exploitation and sustainability potential. A SWOT
analysis is then applied to the analysis to provide a more quantified assessment of potential.
3.3.1
Results from the IGUANA pilot evaluation
The IGUANA programme was piloted and evaluated in 12 educational institutions in six EU countries:
the UK, Greece, Portugal, Ireland, Lithuania and the Netherlands. These reflect different types of
organisation, stakeholder groups, environments and educational and governance models. They
represent a range of ‘presenting problems’ that IGUANA was developed to address but share a
common interest in working with resistance to change. The core user group that participated in the
full piloting process consisted of 98 members of the 12 participating organisations. This group was
made up mainly of principals and school leaders and teaching staff, but included a small number of
school governors, students and other staff. The programme also involved a broader ‘secondary user
group’ mainly consisting of members of the European School Heads Association, the Lithuanian
Teachers Network and school principals from Portugal who were involved in validating the IGUANA
tools.
The key results from the piloting and evaluation, with regard to their relevance for exploitation, are
as follows:






The IGUANA approach and model proved very effective as a framework in which educational
enterprises could identify the factors contributing to organisational ‘stuckness’ and the
obstacles preventing innovation in their organisations. It provided a space to reflect on these
factors and obstacles, develop strategies to address the issues and implement a plan to put
the strategy into practice.
In all pilot locations, the two elements of the IGUANA programme seen as most effective and
most valuable were the EI/OI self-assessment tools and the Action Learning Sets. Their real
value was as a catalyst to allow members of the organisation to surface and explore the
tensions and processes below the surface that were conspiring to inhibit innovation.
The Assignments were seen as moderately effective. The EI and OI Learning Modules (Content
Repository) were rated between slightly and moderately effective. The Peer
Review/Benchmarking system was the least well rated in terms of effectiveness
comprehensiveness and usability.
The mapping of EI competences carried out in the pilots, using the EI self-assessment tool,
showed that, although EI competences appear to be moderately well-developed overall, the
range and level of competences is uneven, with low levels of competence in key areas. EI
competences are particularly weak in the areas of ‘Self-confidence’, ‘Stress management’ and
‘Anxiety Management’.
The mapping of OI competences carried out in the pilots, using the OI self-assessment tool,
showed OI competences are less well-developed than EI competences, and are also unevenly
developed. OI competences are particularly weak in the areas of ‘Evaluation’ and in
‘Groupishness’ (working together to promote a shared vision of the organisation).
Overall, taking part in the IGUANA learning programme had no major effect in terms of
improving participants’ EI competences and in fact is associated with a decrease in EI
competences overall. Similarly, taking part in the IGUANA learning programme had no major
effect in terms of improving or decreasing the participant organisations’ OI competences. OI
scores only improved over the pilot period in one area - with an increase in the ‘evaluation’
score.


However, the pilot evaluation clearly showed that IGUANA had a significant effect on
developing specific EI and OI competences that are seen as essential to reduce stuckness and
support innovation in a particular school situation. What happened in the IGUANA pilot
organisations was that the participating schools used the EI/OI assessment tools to identify
particular weaknesses in their organization, worked with the Action Learning Sets to explore
these weaknesses and come up with solutions, and then developed Innovation Plans to
implement these solutions.
This suggests that the original ‘intervention model’ used in the IGUANA pilots needs to be
adapted to take a more ‘ecological’ approach to working with stuckness and change. This
would entail a greater emphasis on the use of support services to assist the enterprise in
adapting the IGUANA programme to the organisational life and practices of the enterprise, a
more widespread involvement of a broader spectrum of the members of the enterprise in the
programme and greater use of the collaborative learning features of the IGUANA programme.
The pilot evaluation identified key success factors of interest for IGUANA’s exploitation, as well as
the key inhibitors likely to affect successful exploitation. The success factors are:






management buy-in and a ‘champion’ to take ownership of the initiative and embed the
programme within the educational enterprise;
the programme needs to be supported by credible external agencies;
the whole enterprise needs to be involved – not just a core group of school leaders
a clear road map of the implementation process needs to be set out at the onset
this Road Map needs to be adapted to the context of the participating organisation
a high level of face-to-face support to help participants work through the programme is
needed.
The main inhibitors to success are:




time and resource constraints (insufficient time; problems fitting the programme into the
organization timetable; ‘opportunity costs’ associated with participating in the programme);
motivational problems (getting staff to see the value of the programme; getting staff to work
on their own outside the group environment);
language issues (providing high quality local language versions of the tools and learning
content; making the technical language of the content intelligible to users);
support issues (the level of ‘hand-holding and support available to participants).
These suggest that the following specific changes and enhancements need to be made to the
existing IGUANA offer in order to increase the chances of successful exploitation:






Provide clear instructions at the initial ‘kick off’ presentation of IGUANA that set out what is
expected of participating organisations, what activities need to be carried out at each stage,
what the expected outputs and outcomes are and how these need to be used.
Provide adequate face-to-face support to help participants work through the programme,
including more practice-based examples of EI and OI competences in teaching and learning.
Ensure high quality translation of the EI/OI tools and the learning content is provided.
Provide visual indications of which EI and OI competence tests have been completed.
Phrase all EI/OI rating scales positively and in the same polar direction.
Put more investment and resources into making sure the OLS works
3.3.2
Assessment of potential market and demand
The potential market and level of demand for IGUANA is difficult to ascertain, not least because it is
clear from the exploitation analysis that the platform, tools, learning programme and support services
show a high degree of transferability to other sectors. As a broad illustration, indicators of the
parameters of potential demand for IGUANA in the ‘primary’ target sector – schools – and in two
‘secondary’ target sectors assessed in the exploitation strategy (health and youth offending) are:



Around 216,000 primary, lower secondary and upper secondary schools in the EU-28
(source: Eurostat, 2012)
Around 15,000 hospitals in the EU-28 (source: European Hospital and Healthcare Federation,
2014)
205 Youth Offending Institutions in the EU-28 (source: Eurostat, 2012).
This suggests, overall, a potentially large demand base for IGUANA.
This is a long term projection. In the short term, the potential market demand can be assessed from
analysis of the exploitation actions already carried out, as reported in Section 3.2.3 above. This
potential demand is as follows:

Analysis of the IGUANA stakeholders database suggests there are currently 63 individual
potential partners/users who have expressed an interest in using IGUANA (15 from
consultancy organisations; 23 from innovation networks; 1 media; 12 pedagogic universities;
3 policy makers; 5 practitioners; 4 researchers).
Analysis of the IGUANA exploitation activities suggests there are:







45 potential partners from the ‘Discovery Space’ network (Ministries of Education and public
bodies, University Departments, Teacher Training Institutions, educational content
providers)
140 ESHA representatives (management members and presidents of national school leaders
associations, board of the European School Heads Association)
500 staff from the KETHEA rehabilitation service network in Greece
150 school leaders and 50 school principals in Portugal
20 school pilots in Portugal
3 hospitals in Lisbon
A pilot Innovative Leaders Programme and integrated in an early school drop-out package
project in the Azores.
This initial user base could provide a platform for further developing a more precisely targeted
exploitation and sustainability strategy for IGUANA, enabling a more precise definition of markets and
revenue streams and would, more importantly, establish a strong EI and OI database to subsequently
develop baseline and benchmark indicators for IGUANA.

OPPORTUNITIES
THREATS
EI now highlighted as important in EU and
member states education policy
Perception that education is ‘in crisis’ and needs
systemic change and innovation
Exploitation actions have identified major
opportunities in health, social innovation and
youth inclusion fields
Recent policy initiatives – e.g. Social Investment
Package; ‘Jobs for Growth’ creating spaces
where IGUANA resonates
Validation actions have identified specific
agencies, networks and organisations that have
expressed a concrete demand for IGUANA
services
EI assessment already well-established in HR
sector – potential competition from commercial
EI providers
IGUANA is ‘Open source’ and can be easily
colonised and monopolised by strong players
Technological innovation could make the
IGUANA platform and tools obsolete in a short
time frame
As Table 2 shows, the main exploitation and sustainability strengths for IGUANA focus on: its
innovative approach and delivery model – as far as it is possible to establish, the IGUANA
programme or something like it does not exist at the moment, particularly the OI component; the
availability of an established evidence base from the pilot evaluation to show that IGUANA works
and in what ways; the evidence of strong potential demand; the existence of an established
partnership that provides a foundation for sustainability and growth and the evidence from
exploitation activities that IGUANA has high transferability to other sectors.
The main exploitation and sustainability weaknesses currently focus on financial constraints – there
is little or no capital available at the moment for development and start up investment, and this is
particularly acute because of the modifications that are required to develop both sectoral and
language modifications to the platform, tools and learning programme and the modifications needed
to improve technical functionalities to make the offer both generic and customisable. However,
probably the biggest challenge in the short term is the lack of training and consultancy partners
currently engaged at the local level to deliver the programme – particularly the self-assessment tools.
This is an immediate short term obstacle to exploitation that requires attention by the consortium.
As noted above, there are significant opportunities for IGUANA services both in the short and longer
term. EI is increasingly highlighted as an important element in EU and member states education policy
in developing the skills required for Europe’s youth and in supporting innovation in the education
systems that will play the most significant role in delivering those skills. Recent policy initiatives – for
example the Social Investment Package and ‘Jobs for Growth’ are creating opportunity spaces where
IGUANA can resonate. There is a common perception – both from the perspective of policy-makers
and from education leaders – that education is ‘in crisis’ and needs systemic change and innovation.
Outside the education sector, the exploitation actions have identified major opportunities in the
health, social innovation and youth inclusion fields. Validation actions have identified specific
agencies, networks and organisations that have expressed a concrete demand for IGUANA services.
At the moment, the main threats to IGUANA, in terms of developing and delivering an offer, are
limited. As far as can be seen, there are no equivalent services available at the moment that provide
the combination of EI and OI competence development that IGUANA has. The main threat comes
therefore from an already established EI assessment industry which is already well-established mainly
in the HR field where products like the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence test, TEIQue-SF
and the ESCI test are routinely used in things like personnel selection and job assessment. These are
‘generic’ instruments that have not been adapted to the particular context of the educational
environment and they do not have an OI component. However, it is possible that established players
in this field could take advantage of IGUANA’s ‘open source’ environment to migrate the tools and
colonise a market.
4. Proposed IGUANA exploitation and sustainability methodology
4.1
Service models
The results of the exploitation and sustainability analysis – including the SWOT analysis – presented
above in Section 3 suggest that there are four possible service delivery models that could be deployed
to deliver an IGUANA service offer. Each of these implies an associated business model. These are:




The Open access model
The Intermediary model
The Ecological model
The ‘Quadruple Helix’ model.
These are summarised in Table 3.
Table 3: The IGUANA service models
Service Model
Description
Business model
Open access
IGUANA provides support directly to user Consultancy
organisations to help them access the
programme from a public website, embed
the programme in their organisation and
develop and monitor innovation plans.
Intermediary
IGUANA provides training to intermediary Franchise/Consultancy
organisations (for example training
providers) to market and deliver the
IGUANA programme to clients identified
by the intermediaries themselves.
Ecological
IGUANA works in ‘co-production’ mode Consultancy
with organisation to customise the
programme for an organisation
Quadruple Helix
IGUANA is part of a broader community- Experimental – based on R&D
based social innovation initiative aimed at funding to establish proof of
developing the social capital of a concept
community
The Open Access model represents the ‘basic’ IGUANA service offer. The assumption is that the bulk
of user demand for the IGUANA programme will be drawn from a wide constituency of schools and
other educational establishments who become aware of IGUANA through IGUANA dissemination
activities, word of mouth, the web site, EC databases. Some of these will access and use the
programme on their own. A proportion will seek additional support from the IGUANA consortium to
help them adapt the programme to their particular needs; provide consultancy to run and review the
self-assessment tools using the ‘Action Learning Set’ method; help them develop Innovation Plans;
monitor the plans. The business model for this service model is based on a Consultancy Service offer,
set out in Annex I of this Deliverable.
The Intermediary model assumes that the IGUANA consortium acts as a bridge between end users
and intermediaries – typically training providers. The intermediaries develop their own targeting and
marketing strategies. The IGUANA consortium provides training and support to intermediary
organisations to familiarise them with the programme, understand how it works and how it can be
delivered. The business model for this service model could combine a ‘franchise’ model with a
‘consultancy’ approach (see Annex I).
The Ecological model provides a more intensive and hands-on service for end users. It assumes that a
particular group of clients will have a need for a comprehensive Change Programme in which the selfassessment tools play the role of a catalyst to support innovation within the organisation, rather than
a central function in themselves (Figure 2).

The IGUANA offer in this case focuses on guiding the client organisation through a process of iterative
adaptation of the programme, beginning with providing a space for changing organisational practices
to evolve. Once this is established, IGUANA supports the client organisation in establish these evolving
practices within organisational life, leading to longer term innovation within the enterprise. This
service model places more emphasis on the ‘action learning’ element of the IGUANA programme,
greater use of support services to assist the enterprise in adapting the programme to the
organisational life and practices of the enterprise, and a more active role for the IGUANA team as ‘coproducers’ of innovation within the organisation. It thus implies a more customised consultancybased business model.
The Quadruple Helix model reflects a longer-term exploitation scenario. It is based on a variation of
the ‘triple helix’ approach advocated by the European Commission 1 which argues that towns and
cities are important motors of the European economy, ideal centres for personal and community
development and bodies with significant potential for developing solutions to societal challenges. The
model focuses on developing systems that promote cooperation between public authorities, business,
knowledge institutions and civil society organisations to deliver these solutions. Since schools and
other educational enterprises are pivotal institutions in developing and delivering knowledge, it
follows that initiatives like IGUANA could potentially play an important role as a catalyst in these
collaborative actions. This is an experimental scenario which requires proof of concept. The associated
business model for IGUANA thus envisages submission of a proposal for funding through the EC
HORIZON 2020 programme to explore the approach.

4.2
Implementing the Methodology
To develop the above service models requires a number of actions to be taken by the IGUANA
consortium. These cover:





review and agreement of the methodology including the service offer(s)
setting up of appropriate legal/business entity for implementing the service offer(s)
making the necessary adjustments to the existing platform, tools and learning content
preparing the implementation actions
targeted exploitation actions to kick-start the exploitation plan.
It is proposed that specific partners are designated co-ordination roles for the targeted exploitation
actions. This role focuses on firstly developing a clear specification for the service models outlined in
Section 4.1 and, secondly, identifying and engaging with named potential partners and users for the
specific scenarios in which the first IGUANA exploitation phase will work. Table 4 defines these service
model co-ordination and sector development roles.
