Episode Description

The buzz: Creativity. To produce a great idea, must you be a genius or just lucky? If, like most, you believe the root of creativity and innovation is inspiration, what about the role of courage and persistence? It is not difficult to generate a lot of ideas, but how do you pick just the great ones? Creative methods, like fashion and the seasons, come and go. What if creativity is a skill that can be taught and nurtured, and everybody can learn it? Many questions in search of answers! The experts speak. Yoni Stern, SIT: “You can’t think about thinking without thinking about something” (Johan de Kleer). Frank Rust, Design Thinker and Innovation Consultant: “You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club” (Jack London). Alejandro Pifarré, SAP: “The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies’.” (Napoleon Bonaparte). Join us for Innovation and the Creative Techniques Battleground.

Innovating Innovation with Game Changers, Presented by SAP

The pace of technological advance is constantly increasing and puts pressure on companies to be more effective in innovation.

At the same time, most businesses do not fully leverage the innovation potential of their employees and partners, due to a lack of communication – and ideas that are still kept in organizational silos.

Join host Bonnie D. Graham as she invites you to take an additional coffee break with game-changers for our special series on a glimpse into tomorrow’s hot business and industry trends around Innovation Management - and how to “innovate innovation” within your company.

Learn how you can become the savvy Transformation Leader who takes your company across the finish line as you look ahead to the next wave of business.

Innovating Innovation with Game Changers, presented by SAP, live on Thursdays at 7 AM Pacific Time / 10 AM Eastern Time on the VoiceAmerica Business Channel.
