Immersing yourself in the process of exploration, experimentation, failure, and examination, you will discover new ways to surface and develop ideas, discuss them openly, evolve them, and set the stage for ongoing innovation. As you dig into the characteristics of innovative organizations, you will learn what it takes to lead the changes that transform promising ideas into reality.
While this innovation program emphasizes collaboration, you also will engage in guided self-reflection and a unique approach to peer-to-peer collaboration that is designed to boost your creativity and expand your innovation mindset.
During the program, you will work with a team of peers, known as a "brain trust," to spark new thinking on innovation and help you evolve your ideas. You'll have the opportunity to focus on an innovation leadership challenge facing your organization, share your approach with your brain trust, and iterate your solutions with their help.
Participants should expect to spend at least 9-12 hours on self-paced case preparation prior to attending the program. Case materials will be made available approximately two weeks prior to program start.
