Programme Structure

The program focuses on:

  • Incremental and discontinuous strategic innovation are not opposites, they are partners
  • We love our customers, but we are always out of equilibrium with them
  • We might serve our customers better by talking with people who are not our customers, and never will be
  • Good ideas do not just rely on experts, they require non-experts as well
  • Innovation thrives when ambiguity is both reduced and enlarged
  • Creating value is not the same as capturing value
  • Wide-ranging creativity requires discipline
  • Bottom-up entrepreneurial innovation thrives under strong, self-confident, top-down leaders
