  “In so many cases I find organizations’ growth, margins and capitalization dramatically constrained through a lack of proactive engagement with innovation. It is a particular passion of mine and one I look forward to sharing.” Both strategy and innovation are challenging of course. But, committing your organization to using innovation as central element of successful corporate strategy can be even more challenging, yet paradoxically, risk reducing. This workshop addresses head on, what is required to develop a commitment to leveraging innovation far more successfully as a cornerstone of your organization’s corporate strategy. Peter’s workshop will use many case study examples to illustrate what is required to embed innovation as a constant driving force for improving the competitiveness of your organisation.
