Keynotes
Keynote by speaker Nigel Barlow:
WHY INNOVATION IS EVERYBODY’S BUSINESS - Thinking Better and Differently With Nigel Barlow
There’s a stereotype that ‘innovative thinking’ mainly applies to creating a new product or service – it’s something that those clever people in R&D or New Product Development do, but not applicable to everyday operations.
Wrong! We can think creatively and innovatively about our role, our leadership and team management, the way we manage priorities, seize opportunities and solve problems. There’s always a better and new way of approaching work and life, but a
fixed mindset
can limit our ability to see these novel options.
This inspiring, dynamic and practical presentation provides experience of how minds become set - and what to do about it. To create a culture where innovation and fresh thinking become the DNA of the organisation. Delegates leave with a practical tool-kit of methods to be more curious and creative, to think more innovatively and… encourage this talent in the real world of work.
