Abstract:

To advance service science, the Cambridge SSME report of 2010 urged stakeholders to create Service Innovation Roadmaps (SIRs) (IfM and IBM 2010). Over a decade later an even bigger opportunity exists to advance service innovation by stakeholders. In 2021, the World Economic Forum (WEF) has identified a 6 trillion Euro "upskilling opportunity" for workers enabling higher value jobs and a shared prosperity (WEF 2021).

This talk connects SIRs with upskilling, and explores the importance of SIRs in terms of the way responsible (service system) entities learn. March (1991) explains learning as a fundamental investment decision that organizations make in exploration and exploitation activities. Building on this prior work, March's two-option learning investment framework, Spohrer & Maglio (2010) explain learning of service system entities in terms of a three-option learning investment framework- called Run-Transform-Innovate (R-T-I). A version of R-T-I was used by IBM CIO office in the late 1990's and early 2000's to grow IBM"s service business (Sanford & Taylor 2005; Spohrer 2018).

This talk explains SIRs as a modified version of the business model canvas that responsible entities can use to become more explicit about their R-T-I investment in learning and upskilling. Individuals, businesses, regional universities and governments, and nations can all create SIRs to help them better succeed through service innovation, while simultaneously upskilling towards a deeper understanding of service science. Consistent with a positive growth mindset, we see the practice of creating and revising SIRs as one of the very best ways to put service science in action for learners, leaders, and innovators.

iESS 2.1 EVALUATION PROCESS
It is decomposed into the following phases.


Evaluation process

The evaluation process has several stages with private digital meetings, i.e. only for  the authors and the PC members.

New schedule updated on February 2.

- November 30, 2020: declaration of intention of authors to submit a paper by means to an email send to a PC member.

- December 2020: acceptation /rejection of the intentions

- January 31, 2021: deadline for the reception of the papers  submitted on the Easychair platform

- February 23: notification to the authors.

- February 24 - March 3: possible digital meetings between the authors and the PC members.

- March 14: deadline to submission of the final version of papers on the EASYCHAIR platform.

- March 16: final notification to the authors and planning of the presentations.


During the digital meetings, the PC members are responsible for maintaining scientific integrity. They create and maintain, among all participants, a climate of caring and supporting, that is conducive to scientific exploration.
