Starting new teams and scaling up innovation is more critical than ever. The key to success is applying different practices in different stages of the innovation lifecycle.
What works for a new business does not work for a mature one, and vice versa.
In this workshop, you will nosedive into the major good practices for business leaders and product teams, from the moment they have an innovative idea to the day they will scale it up (or screw it up).
Everything depends on the lifecycle stage of the product or service.
Audience
The workshop draws from a diverse variety of participants such as Coaches, Consultants, Team managers, Business leaders, Product designers, Product developers, Product managers, Project managers, Human resource managers.
This is a foundational workshop, not an expert-level course, meaning that no knowledge or certificates in lean, business agility or innovation are required. However we recommend some familiarity or experience with new product development and business management (in any role). It will make attendance easier and more fruitful right from the start.
Workshop Agenda
The aim of this workshop is not to simply review dozens of practices and buzzwords that will be well-known (to some participants).
Instead, the goal is to take a higher perspective and achieve a foundational understanding of how all these tools fit into the larger picture of the innovative, evolving company as a family of business models with individual business life cycles.
It is the perfect starting point for organizations aiming to achieve a coherent approach to a startup and scaleup culture within a corporate environment, with an equal emphasis on both disruptive and sustaining innovation.
