Innovation through Change

Before beginning work on this discussion forum, please review the link "Doing Discussion Questions Right" and any specific instructions for this topic.

Before the end of the week, begin commenting on at least two of your classmates' responses. You can ask technical questions or respond generally to the overall experience. Be objective, clear, and concise. Always use constructive language, even in criticism, to work toward the goal of positive progress. Submit your responses in the Discussion Area.

Introduction: Organizations rely on people to innovate. Innovation does not happen by itself. It takes effort, strategy, structure, and culture to innovate. Organizations must learn the steps to fostering an innovative culture that sometimes requires changing its culture, which can shift how work is done.

Question 1: Discuss how leaders are supporting the effort with resources (money) and why these efforts have failed to provide the returns expected.

Question 2: Discuss the various aspects of creating an innovative company.
