Course description
CKS - Innovation
Innovation is the key to thriving and surviving for every organization, especially given the pace of change we are facing today. Success requires a sustained cycle of rapid innovation and learning, which in turn requires developing experts, pioneers, and thought leaders with the right mindsets. Organizations that are still developing their people “from novice to expert” will be left behind.
Innovation management requires the integration of several disciplines, including business psychology, organizational learning, knowledge management, and change leadership. And given recent discoveries in positive psychology, cognitive diversity, and neuroscience, we can now accelerate the innovation process.
