About the session
Leaders looking to inspire cultural change must consider the foundational elements of innovation culture relevant to the organization and its position. Achieving culture change includes monitoring what is happening across the industry and in other sectors and recognizing signals of change within their organization and in the broader market. Creating an innovation culture is not a project or a task. Innovation culture is a by-product of more comprehensive business decisions.
The session will address ways to connect with employees, inspire cultural change, embrace innovation, and show how innovation benefits the business, employees, and your customers.
