FACILITATED BY INTERNATIONAL AUTHORS ROBERT JOHNSTON AND DOUG BATE!
Keeping up with changes in customers, markets, technologies, and trends requires an ongoing ability to find new and better ways to create value for both customers and organisations. That is the essence of innovation – finding new ways to create value. This one-day workshop will show how learning to brainstorm is not enough to create a culture of innovation in your organisation. The secret to success in innovation is creating a simple system in your organisation that will foster and support innovation activities that lead to breakthrough results.

Join Bob Johnston and Doug Bate, authors of The Power of Strategy Innovation, as they share their insights on how to create a culture of innovation for any organisation that will lead to significant results and overall growth. They will draw on examples from well-known international organisations they have worked with as well as their experiences with a company in South Africa that has recently adopted an innovation system for meeting their growth goals.

A Harvard Business School case will be used to highlight how Procter & Gamble began, with the help of Johnston and Bate, their highly successful Innovation journey. You and your team will learn what steps you can take to make your division/department or your entire company more innovative and to dramatically increase the flow of innovative ideas that can make a significant difference to your success.

Delegates will receive a FREE copy of The Power of Strategy Innovation by Robert E. Johnston, JR and J. Douglas Bate
