Creating a Climate for Innovation (The Creative Life)
Ideation Facilitator. The host for this show is Darlene Boyd. The guest is Dawn DePasquale.
Most companies cite innovation in their vision, mission, and/or value statements, yet very few have a systematic approach to support innovative practices.
Innovation doesn’t just happen. Leaders need to put three things into place. Dr. Dawn DePasquale explains these three components and why they are a sure fire formula for creating an environment where new thinking contributes to the company’s vision. Leaders at all levels, need to understand that they are responsible for their teams working climate.
This seminal research on innovative climate began with a simple observation of two automotive plants. Each plant with intriguing energy. Expansion of this case study research is reviewed. This discussion provides the foundation today that links innovative output with leadership behaviors. The result is a supportive climate for thinking.
The emphasis here is on climate and the employee experience. Dawn also explains how company vs culture often blocks or limits innovation.
