How do you create an environment in which new ideas can survive and thrive? How do you increase the innovative power of your organisation, its teams and its employees? What is strangling creative entrepreneurship in your company? This book gives a bold but chilling answer to all these challenging questions – questions which confront managers and executives on a daily basis.
As a leading expert in the fields of learning and innovation management, Jef Staes analyses the way in which people resist and even obstruct change processes. And he does not shy away from confrontation! With a vast range of new insights and metaphors, he makes clear why managers and policymakers often reach the wrong decisions. His new vocabulary for a new era will ensure that the reader gains a valuable understanding of the dramatic processes of change and innovation: processes which are essential to any organisation hoping to compete in our rapidly-evolving modern world.
