    Building a Culture of Innovation

    In today’s economy, innovation and creativity are integral to business success.  Decision makers are exploring their organization’s innovation skills and culture to plot a winning course and to encourage employees to adopt new ways of thinking to build product and process innovation.  Building an innovative culture requires a systematic approach to supporting and managing human capital, information, and knowledge in order to transform thinking and ideas into successful business outcomes, processes, products and services.
