Innovation-based performance is different from agile-based performance

Because the first one (innovation-based performance) is rely on investment in latest  technology that develops performance and makes the company different in terms of technology only than other competitors

The second (agile-based performance) depends on the company's ability to respond rapidly to environmental variables and thus its ability to explore and exploit opportunities.

my suggestion for you is to adopt the model of exploration and exploitation as an agile strategy to capture the performance edge with the competitors

Adding new products in business can be used.

Thanks a lot Dr. safdar, i appreciate that reply

You can use the percentage of innovative sales, the number of workers of high education degree or other variables related with absortive capacity.

Dynamic capabilities framework could be considered as a performance measurement tool, particularly the one developed by David Teece. 

Process within Vale base Business Process Management a Network 

It would be possible to measure the number of patents, copy rights or new products per time unit (e.g. per year).

If you want to measure the performance of the firm, it is necessary to measure its results.

Agility? Time to market, number of new products, sales of new products, participation of new products in sales.

Innovation is a synergy between Creation and Entrepreneurship. So, in this way you should use a model which could be able to make a synergy between the two. I recommend you to illustrate the curve of innovation by variables Creation and Entrepreneurship. Try to make a linear regression equivalent via Y=alpha+beta.X in which Y is the entrepreneurship and the X is the creation and the relevant linear curve is the innovation which you need. To measure organizational performance for innovation you need to compare the relevant curves in different time period.

thanks a lot all... i really appreciate your comments/answers.

you can use 

new product developments

new product dev attempt

new product design

as variables under innovation

Thanks, miss raiswa saha for suggestions

 the Innovation the mean of enhancing agility of the firm by building a culture that’s flexible enough to change tactics, priorities and processes as circumstances require that in turn enhance the firm performance. Measuring Agility helps the organisation for improving  their performance. Forrester identifies 10 measurable dimensions that shape an organisation’s business agility:

Market dimensions

market responsiveness

channel integration

Organizational dimensions

knowledge dissemination

digital psychology

change management

Process-focused dimensions

business intelligence

infrastructure elasticity

process architecture

software innovation

sourcing/supply chain

Labor productivity is the criterion of effectiveness or not?

It is usually assumed that labor productivity is the criterion of effectiveness. However, if you conduct a thought experiment may prove to be effective an enterprise with one head with a very large salary. What is the criterion still may be adequate for assessing the effectiveness?

I OFFER A PAQRTAIL ANSWER TOP YOUR QUESTION:

I apply three parameters and KPI's for Marketing of Technologies and High Tech products/Services:

TTM: time to market: ( relation: required TTM to possible TTM)

IHL: Innovation half life in relation  to the strongest competitor known to the Innovator (required IHL to possible IHL)

ROI: of Innovation Projects / Innovation business unit.

These we apply to B2B markets. Eg: IHL for flow battery technology, IHL for Plasma assisted  physical vapour deposition

Thanks Hmood, 

kuzin, and hasenauer for your kind response.

Dear Callagan

I agreee and the perfomance mesura should based in lack of synchronism and adequação mesures of adequate metodology&technology.

Thanks

Since the context at which you want to explore innovation is not known, i would presume it to be for a company. There are two aspects to be defined here, to understand and evaluate link between innovation and performance and these are:

1. Dimensions that indicate innovation in a company can relate to - product, service and service, and to measure them we need to look at - number of patents issued, research spending, new product launches etc.

2. Dimensions that indicate performance can be related to - sales revenue, profitability, performance ratios, stock price, number of employees, etc.

Testing these two aspects provide a basis for accepting or rejecting your hypothesis - which might look into understanding why,how and by how much innovation mediates or drives performance (DV) of a company.
