Assumptions
The presentation is built on the assumption, that innovation can either be created as an addition to the organization and therefor more will have the nature of an startup-business, which will not have any major impact on the innovation and change-culture of the organization – or innovation can be addressed as a transformation process, a transition or an evolution of the existing culture. With the mindset of transformation more leaders will build new skills to support change and innovation impacting the overall culture on a much larger scale creating a new mindset supporting learning, growth, change and innovation.
