Creative Collaboration
Thursday, 11 March 11:00 am CET/ 6:00 pm SGT (60 mins)
Design thinking is one of the tools most commonly offered to professionals looking to become more innovative. The fruits of innovation - novel, valuable products and services - can easily be bought and sold, but planting, cultivating and harvesting know-how is far less transferrable. Learning to innovate requires diligence, patience, and direct collaboration with skillful role models.
In this webinar, Professor Sosa will share the results of his recent research in the area of creativity and design, focusing on two fundamental aspects of creative collaboration:
- Whether the key to successful innovation is collaboration
- The best conditions for successful collaboration during innovation

Humanocracy
Thursday, 8 April, 5:00 pm CET / 8:00 am PST (60 mins)
Organizations today face an array of unprecedented challenges: technological disruption, rule-breaking competitors, omnipotent customers, pervasive regulation, new social demands and heightened employee expectations. To thrive in this new environment, firms will need to overhaul their bureaucracy-encrusted management practices. We need to make the jump from bureaucracy to humanocracy, from a management model that was designed to maximize control to one that is designed to maximize contribution. Gary Hamel shares a roadmap for this journey and tell you how to get started with your own team.

Thursday, 20 May, 1:00 pm CET / 8:00 pm SGT (75 mins)

Whether it’s Freedom and Responsibility, Radical Honesty, or The Keeper Test, Meyer lays out a proven, systematic method for building, maintaining and enhancing a corporate culture that breeds speed, flexibility and innovation across the organization.
