Enable Innovation Through Culture
Focus on culture rather than spend for greater innovation success.
- Few HR departments enable their organization’s innovation efforts, resulting in a missed opportunity to be a strategic partner and accelerate results.
- There are different types of innovation, and different cultural drivers are critical for each type of innovation. Understanding the types of innovation an organization is using allows HR to determine where to focus their efforts.
