Innovating into the System Transition

Major industries from automotive to oil & gas to food are facing more fundamental changes over the next 20 years than they have seen in nearly a century. The model of industry change that most innovation leaders have fretted about for most of their careers so far has been shifts driven by disruptive technologies — but the dramatic shifts coming now are driven as much or more by societal changes and external imperatives like climate change. The way that innovation teams should be organized and operate, and the strategies that they need to master to respond, will be different as well. This session explores this evolution in innovation management.
