Course overview

Can your business survive without innovation?

Businesses today no longer have the luxury of choosing whether to innovate or not. Regardless of internal resistance to change, external factors drive innovation across the globe. And if your business ignores that pressure, it is unlikely to succeed. While there’s no blueprint for innovation to suit all organisations, there are basic principles which leaders should be aware of.
