Strategic Agility in Uncertain Times

Jun 03, 2020

Every business is now a startup. New opportunities appear and a simplified framework brings clarity when revising the strategy. Strategic agility is not optional when the context is changed profoundly and, depending on the time horizon, many business leaders are focused on: survive, adapt, thrive. 

Building long-term innovative teams

Apr 16, 2020

Building great products and businesses depends on team innovation. But innovation doesn’t only happen because of an innovation process or because of one particular person. Each team member can contribute with creativity, experience, knowledge for creating within the team something new, something amazing for the customers, for the users and for the company.

A structured approach for mentoring and coaching the team to become aware of their strengths and how they can grow and innovate together it is a good start for the organisations taking the innovation road for their products.
