Managers can’t deliver breakthrough ideas if leaders don’t build the conditions for them to thrive.
Live Webinar Thursday 25th September, 10am.
Off the back of our recent ‘Managing in Today’s Workplace’ webinar on Innovation, we’re taking the conversation one level higher – to the leaders who hold the keys to unlocking genuine innovation. Our last session highlighted how critical middle managers are in translating innovation strategy into everyday behaviours, but it also showed us how even the most capable managers can be constrained if the system around them isn’t built for innovation.
Many organisations demand breakthrough ideas, yet operate with systems designed for efficiency, not exploration. The result is well-intentioned innovation theatre – brainstorms, hackathons, pilot projects – that rarely shift the dial. It is often assumed that the issues come from managers’ skills or appetite (or lack of), but in reality it’s the absence of a strategic innovation system.
In this high-impact webinar, Innovation expert and co-author of Building a Culture of Innovation, Cris Beswick, will introduce a practical, five-part blueprint covering strategy, process, culture, management and leadership. Leaders will learn how to architect the workflows, resources and cultural conditions that give managers permission to take risks, spark cross-functional collaboration, and deliver innovation with measurable business impact.
Your managers are ready to drive innovation. Build the system that enables them to succeed.
