Impactful learning for managers and practitioners seeking to develop skills and gain practical tools for how to make innovation happen in their organization.

Why

Participants, prepare yourself to jump ahead! For companies to survive in the discontinuous markets of today they must face the reality of continuous and fundamental changes in who they are, what they do and how they do it.

So why are so many companies struggling with innovation when there is clearly so much expectations and demand for novelty? And why are the people of these companies challenged to imagine how to create surprising, interesting and innovative products and services?
