Inside Innovation - Lessons from a corporate innovator with Michael Nichols
Come and join us for the next in our series of meeting corporate innovators and learning from them how to accelerate innovation and solve tricky problems in your organisation.
Innovation never sleeps, and in times of financial constraint, it takes on even greater importance. Our ability to innovate at pace means that the business can spend more time dealing with changing and increasing customer expectations.
So for this session we have one of the very best corporate innovators in Michael Nichols, who has worked and solved challenges in numerous sectors and retains his passion for innovation as a skill all businesses which want to succeed need.
In this session we will explore a range of themes including:
- How organisations approach to innovation is changing
- What are the key skills organisations are going to need to acquire to solve problems in the future?
- From idea to scale - How to make your ideas a reality
- How do you engage the wider organisation in helping to solve common challenges?
- What are the best ways of failing well?
- How do you best measure your success or failure
- How can you innovate when budgets are tight
- And much more
If you are stuck or frustrated with problems to solve in your team and have tried traditional techniques or methods then this session is for you. Michael is brilliant at taking complex challenges and demystifying ways to solve them.
