Synopsis

This book shows how to systemically move a mature organization towards enhanced innovation performance. The systems approach offers two key benefits. First, it involves systematic analysis of problems encountered and their potential solutions to increase innovation. The second benefit is that the systems approach offers a holistic solution, through providing infrastructure and cultural support to an innovative workforce. The approach connects every participant in the organizational chain, and allows for the creation of systemic change that can influence the behavior of the whole system.
