Live bite-size workshop

Innovation and Creativity

In our volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world, organizations can’t fulfill their missions without being innovative. Very few companies will succeed in the future by continuing to do what they’ve always done. Indeed, if they fail to keep pace with the way the world is constantly transforming, they may fail altogether. Innovation helps organizations to create and improve processes, products, services, and experiences for their customers, staff, and other stakeholders.
  • Define innovation and creativity
  • Explain the benefits of innovation
  • Adopt an innovation mindset to fuel new habits
  • Training options for groups/teams & organization-wide

Course Code: VILT-IC

90-minute live session delivered virtually or in-person (Perfect for use as part of a blended learning program)

This program is available for groups and teams

In our volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world, organizations can’t fulfill their missions without being innovative. Very few companies will succeed in the future by continuing to do what they’ve always done. Indeed, if they fail to keep pace with the way the world is constantly transforming, they may fail altogether. Innovation helps organizations to create and improve processes, products, services, and experiences for their customers, staff, and other stakeholders.
The first step in realizing the benefits of innovation is to shift our outlook and perceptions. We need to adopt an innovation mindset, which means being open to change, taking risks, embracing diversity of thought, and not being satisfied with the status quo.
This 90-minute session will help you fully recognize what innovation looks like in the workplace. It’ll give you the confidence to become more innovative by shifting your mindset and applying your newly learned skills and tools to your organization’s challenges.

  • Are you afraid to take risks in case you’re seen to fail?
