Innovation Workshops

Why shared understanding is key to shifting your innovation efforts into high gear

We help your organization to develop a shared understanding of innovation – what it is, how it works and how to achieve it. A frequent obstacle for success is that people have misunderstandings about what innovation is, where it comes from, who’s responsible for it and how to measure or reward it. Given these widespread misunderstandings and a real-world failure rate of 50-90%, it's amazing that innovation ever occurs.

What INNOVAND can do:

Our INNOVAND innovation workshops eliminate troublesome misconceptions, ensure that management and employees both have a solid understanding of innovation and help your people adopt more effective approaches to innovation.
