Are you an Innovation Leader? Preparing leaders for sustainable innovation, & managing the tension change brings.

How can leaders deal with the complexities and challenges of constant change? This part 3 includes a fascinating validated assessment and interactive exercises to help explore your unique Innovation Change Leadership profile (iCLi). The Grant's latest research reveals how understanding individual, team and organisation ‘Paradoxical Innovation Orientations’ (PIOs) can assist with fuelling innovation. In this session you learn how to manage the dynamic tension between the need for exploration and preservation, to demonstrate how to lead teams so they are propelled forward rather than ripped apart. You are shown how to become an ambidextrous innovation leader. Drawing from our research with thousands of survey responses, multiple interviews with heads of innovation and a deep dive immersion into one organisation over two years – along with fascinating case studies from our consulting work with organisations over 30 years – the session reveals how successful leaders can fuel sustainable development. Academic Version with White Paper also available.

Everyone is talking about the need to “breakthrough” with innovative new ideas, so what is holding us back? CEOs say it’s the #1 leadership competency needed for the future – and it is a stronger predictor of life success than IQ. Yet CQ (Creative Quotient) testing shows that creative thinking has been on the decline worldwide over the last generation. Individuals also lose the ability to think creatively over their lifespan – with a dramatic drop from children who score as geniuses on creative thinking tests, to adults who lose that capability. Why does this happen and what can be done about it? An interesting case is woven to reveal the brain’s inherent neurological gaps and demonstrate the subtle but powerful art of the sort of creative thinking that dares to be different and leads to breakthrough innovations.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community and converted to Podcast format.
