Leaders often talk about the importance of innovation to profitability, growth, and sustained organizational success. And while most of our clients include innovation in their company values or competency model, few actually have a clearly articulated innovation mission and strategy – along with “game-changing” goals and metrics.
Our clients tell us that one of the best ways to get peoples’ creativity kicked into high gear is to get them working on exciting projects that make a difference. Even better is when people closest to the work help define the inspiring opportunities they want to work on!
