Our goal is simple: The Strategy Innovation Lab (SILab) wants to be the most recognized, trusted hub for innovation in government. The SILab is a knowledge hub that accelerates innovative and sustainable solutions through methods, tools, thought leadership, events, and other resources to help Government agencies solve complex problems. Combining mission and strategic insights to uncover the root causes of strategic challenges, the SILab applies rigorous, structured techniques incorporating convergent and divergent analyses, stakeholder empathy-building tools, and iterative design to move from issues to solutions. By using an extensive suite of repeatable methods, accelerators, tools, events, and resources, we organize ideas into strategic initiatives that teams can implement with reduced risk. The SILab enables teams experienced in building practical, efficient plans to integrate strategies into mission operations.
