Practical Tools for Strategic Innovation Management

This half-day in persona workshop focuses on practical, directly applicable tools for strategic innovation management and strategy-led research & innovation (R&I) processes.

The workshop will introduce theoretical concepts such as Simple Rules for navigating complex situations and Time-Pacing, which will be illustrated through real-world examples from applied research, business, or public organizations. Following this, you will engage in hands-on exercises where you will learn to apply practical tools like the 'Time-Pacing Diamond' and the 'Ideas2Innovation-Funnel'. By the end of the workshop, you will have acquired a fundamental understanding of strategic innovation management and will depart with actionable tools ready for immediate implementation.
