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. Are you already innovating at your full potential? If not, you are not alone. Most leaders are disappointed with their innovation results. They want more from their investments. The good news is that you can lead and organize your innovation efforts in a systematic way to boost performance.

In the program, you get access to 14 learning modules covering the fundamentals of a proactive and systematic approach and an explanation of why it is critical to boosting innovation 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 and a knowledge test, you are awarded an Amplify certificate of completion.
