IMI Webinar: IMI Mini-Masterclass: An Evolutionary Approach to Innovation
Announcements from the IMI organiser: Most innovations fail, and established enterprises are typically poor at innovating, precisely because they focus on executing their current business model well. How can leaders overcome this innovation dilemma moving forward and nurture a new approach that is rigorous enough to succeed in a rapidly changing business landscape?
In our final Mini-Masterclass event of 2021, Ben Shenoy will explain how an evolutionary perspective on innovation can address this problem and how we can translate a Darwinian model (i.e. Mutation-Selection-Adaptation) to an organisational context (i.e. Frame-Test-Scale) and the implications for leaders who seek to embed innovation within their enterprises.
This session will reframe your thinking and provide insights on:
- Why established enterprises struggle to innovate and what role leaders need to play in order to institutionalise innovation for the long term
- How to create an evolutionary framework that positions innovation within the context of strategy and execution
- What role the wider ecosystem plays in increasing 'mutations' within an innovation funnel
