Attitude for Innovation
For an organization to harness its capacity for innovation, it is crucial to instill an attitude in its team members that promotes an innovative environment. Once this attitude is in place, the next step is to promote constructive communication among those committed innovative thinking. Innovation is no longer two technology geniuses in their basement developing the next Facebook, Google, or Microsoft; it stems from the effective interaction of diverse minds and the interrelation of diverse opportunities. By allowing and encouraging dialogue not only between top tier executives, but also with all individuals’ thoughts, experiences, and opinions, an organization drives the generation of quality solutions and ideas. Participants learn what the innovative attitude is, how to adopt and adapt it to particular working environments, and effective methods for facilitating the intra-organizational conversations necessary for innovative growth.
Upon completing this course, participants will be able to:
- Identify attitudes that foster innovation
- Learn to adopt an innovative attitude
- Recognize methods for introducing innovative attitudes to their own environment as well as across the organization
- Foster conversation across different levels of the organization
- Understand the importance of developing “diverse” work teams
- Create an open and transparent work environment
