THE FOUNDATION OF INNOVATION MANAGEMENT

While everyone might agree that innovation is essential for an organization to thrive in today’s fast-paced business climate, few companies have a culture of innovation or a proactive approach to innovation management – which is taught in this Innovation Management Course. 

What does it take to create an innovative culture?

Firstly, a complex innovation system must be designed to function in a dynamic, unpredictable environment. Secondly, a design process requires a strategy based on a careful assessment—qualitative and quantitative—of your organization’s unique characteristics. And thirdly,  a correct framework to make rapid decisions once things start moving rapidly is needed. It’s likely that your organization will need to make some changes in order to foster innovation, as well.
