The 5 key jobs in innovation

Released: April 26, 2023    Length: 60 min

Overview

The primary role of an innovator is not always to innovate.

We’ve seen many examples of innovators failing because they only focused on the nuts and bolts of innovation.

To make innovation happen, your job is to build relationships inside your organization. You need to lobby for innovation to be front of mind for your CEO, the C-Suite, key business leaders, and key functions within the organization. That’s what we call an innovation ambassador, which is just one of 5 key jobs in innovation.

If you’re a corporate innovator or a leader interested in innovation at any level in your company, this webinar is for you.

Get a clearer idea of what you need to do in your role as a successful innovation leader. Learn whom you need in your team to avoid many of the pitfalls innovators face in corporate entrepreneurship.

In April’s StratChat webinar, Alex Osterwalder (CEO, Strategyzer) and Tendayi Viki (Partner, Strategyzer) will walk you through 5 critical jobs in innovation.
