All companies need to generate profitable revenue yet, most leave their future to fate because they don’t know what to do different. No organization can allow necessity to be the mother of invention. Rather, innovation must be a continual process embraced at all levels of the organization. Existing size and profitability are no guarantee of future success. Innovation is.
“The time has come for innovation to enter the main stream of management thinking, to achieve its rightful place alongside financial management and strategic planning as a determinant of business success.” – Frank Milton, Global Services Integrator, PricewaterhouseCoopers
In this session you will learn and experience first-hand, the process of innovation and how to apply the tools that create a sustainable culture where ideas, big and small, are harvested and transmuted into measurable action plans.
