Why systematic innovation management

The future belongs to those who can innovate and renew themselves! They delight users, power up digital technology, embrace sustainability, accelerate growth, and create social impact.

Leaders who aim to capture novel opportunities today and in the future have no choice –they must simultaneously run and renew their organizations and what they offer. This is a highly challenging task when torn between long-term and short-term goals.

More and more executive leaders realize they must be systematic in their innovation efforts to overcome this dilemma and make the most of their investments. They move away from ad hoc, fragmented, and episodic innovation activities. Instead, they lead with a strategic, structured, holistic, adaptive, and persistent practice – a systematic approach grounded in an innovation management system.

Program overview

Amplify has trained hundreds of executive leaders and their teams across a multitude of sectors globally.

In the program, you get access to 5 learning modules covering the fundamentals of a proactive and systematic approach to managing your innovation efforts and boosting performance.

You will learn about systematic innovation management, its principles, and the essential definitions according to the international standards ISO 56000, 56001, and 56002. After completing the program, you are awarded an Amplify Certificate of Completion.

Program content

This program distills the essence of a systems and systematic approach to innovation management into three core learning modules:

Boosting performance – a systems approach: Learn the foundational definitions, principles, and systems underpinning effective innovation management.

Championing renewal – a future-focused leadership: Explore the leadership qualities and strategies essential for building structures and fostering a culture supporting innovation activities.

Realizing value – an insightful process: Examine the insight-powered innovation processes that, under conditions of uncertainty, move you from an intent to innovate to realizing novel value.

These modules unfold the complexities of this challenging management discipline, providing you with the knowledge and mindset to begin systematically driving innovation efforts in your organization.

The content is produced by Amplify and includes original videos, slideshows, checklists, and more.
