The objective of this training program is to help organizations manage the innovation flow, foster a culture of innovation, and structure their framework to facilitate flourishing innovation initiatives. Drawing from the essence of Design Thinking (DT) and Agile methodologies, which are powerful tools to drive innovation within the organization, this program emphasizes the critical importance of full commitment and cultural embrace from top management.
By actively participating in this training, participants will gain a profound understanding of fostering an innovative culture, assessing risks and rewards, exploring potential organizational designs, and examining real-life cases of success and failure. Additionally, the program will include “Becoming Agile,” a comprehensive presentation on Agile Methodology, covering its origins, applications, and intriguing impacts across various functional areas and industries.
To enrich the learning experience, participants will engage in a hands-on Design Thinking workshop, based on Stanford University’s methodology, where they will generate prototypes and walk through all aspects of the methodology in teams of 2.
