Creating Ongoing, Innovative Results

The Innovation in a VUCA World training course begins by examining volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity, before considering the meaning and importance of innovation in this environment. It distinguishes innovation from creativity and invention, reviews different forms and levels of innovation, and explores the conditions that encourage or obstruct new thinking. The agenda then moves towards strategic alignment, considering how organisational direction, leadership, culture and collaboration shape the development of an innovation-focused environment.

The course continues with the generation and development of ideas, covering creative thinking approaches, the identification of opportunities and the movement from initial concepts towards practical proposals. Attention then turns to evaluating and selecting ideas, managing associated uncertainty and risk, and supporting implementation through appropriate structures and processes. The concluding topics address the leadership and management of innovation, including engagement, communication, resistance to change and the maintenance of momentum within a continually changing VUCA context.
