Innovation : Collaboration to Build a Culture of Innovation
Innovation requires a variety of inputs, opinions, ideas, and consensus. The focus on innovation techniques and processes has led organizations to strive to create cultures of innovation.
While there may be many definitions of the term “innovation”, we view innovation as a continuum of development.
Innovation as an Event – Stimulating Creativity and Breakthrough Thinking
Innovation as a Process – Creating an Innovation Process and Culture
Innovation as a Capability – Creating an imbedded Innovation Capability
