Duke CE Advanced Leadership for Government: Driving Breakthrough Innovation
2 DAY COURSE
Course Outline
50% of all innovation efforts fail to realize the expected value because the innovation doesn't address the real problem or execution fails. A government leader, who leads many of the innovation efforts in organizations, needs a solid, customer-centered approach to initiating, developing, and deploying innovative solutions. Learners will engage in a customer-centered design process from framing to implementation and practice discovering, framing, and driving successful innovation efforts that create sustainable value.
