The ability to get new initiatives off the ground and to the finish line is critical to your career, your impact, and your organization's success. Today rapid innovation is only possible with broad buy-in and support across the board. Identifying and understanding the motivation of the individuals, teams, markets and organizations needed for development at scale is as important as designing an effective narrative.

In this webinar, we will explore the mindset and tools needed to address a new paradigm of collaboration and a novel approach to creating a supportive web of cooperation.
WHY IS THE TRADITIONAL APPROACH FAILING?

In the past we used to view innovation, product development and sales as a linear process of connecting autonomous and unrelated activities and dynamics : customers - vendors - suppliers - marketing channels - competition etc. In today's world success is directly correlated to the ability to discover and manage interdependencies and develop ecosystems that provide maximum value to all stakeholders and dissolving traditional boundaries.
We are moving from a paradigm of competition 
to a world of cooperation

  • ​​How to create unilateral support for your project
  • ​How to talk about your project with a diverse group of people
  • ​How to enlist internal and external support for your initiative?

What we will learn:

It used to be that the biggest problem with innovation was coming up with ideas. Today, the toughest challenges are knowing where to place our bets, gaining support for early stage initiatives, and taking the risk out of growing an idea to scale.
