Building Capability and Capacity to Expand Capabilities for Innovation
For innovation to be successful, the bottom line is the commitment and focus made for building the capabilities and competencies in innovation as people make us the real value and ARE the innovation success equation in my opinion,
So we must simply invest in them by focusing on the 3 C’s of developing peoples Capability, Competency and Capability.
As we set about to build and expand capabilities, we need to consider:
- How we can accelerate the uptake of innovation activity around the conditions provided through investing in them
- The need to trigger engagement and achieve growing attainment of knowledge acquisition and dispersion skills- essential for collaborative innovation
- Setting about building practices for greater synergies, relationships and networking conditions, for ongoing learning and absorptive capacity
- Extracting the right cultural, design, climate and environmental conditions,
- Placing increasing value on evolving the structures, processes and technology application
- Investing in lessons learnt through validation and resolutions to challenges to build an ongoing adaptive capacity.
- Recognizing people solve the critical bottlenecks and find solutions to overcome the constraints, they become increasingly motivated to find solutions and resolve gaps through their ability to be creative and inquisitive.
- The ongoing building of capabilities and competencies clearly leads to a more sustaining and determined innovation future.
Increasing capacity through coaching
There are many benefits from having an intense course of one-on-one coaching, irrespective of the level of responsibility you have for innovation within your organization.
