The 7 principles of highly effective innovation culture change programs (Part 2) | Innovation Management

The 7 principles of highly effective innovation culture change programs (Part 2) | Innovation Management | Business Innovation | Scoop.it
Nothing is more constant than change. Furthermore, the speed of change is accelerating. So for instance, the global knowledge is growing exponentially, disruptive megatrends (e.g. Internet Of Things, urbanization, demographic shifts) are shaping the innovation agendas and new approaches for capturing value by innovation (e.g. Business Model Innovation, Design Thinking) are becoming mainstream. Thus, new realities for innovation management are emerging and firms are forced to change their innovation management ever faster.
Kasia Hein-Peters's insight:

"Only 1 in 2 major change initiatives succeed. It gets particularly difficult, if the change requires developing the innovation culture, i.e. the self-sustaining patterns of behavior, thinking and deciding in the innovation context."
