Managing change and innovation successfully

Managing change and innovation successfully

Experienced employees develop a clear understanding of processes, solutions, and views. However, this asset can be a barrier to successful management of change and innovation. Innovation strategies are developed based on yesterday's experiences, making it challenging to tackle tomorrow's problems. The brain tends to switch to the autopilot mode and prefers to stay in an automatic mode, hindering innovative thinking. To manage change and innovation successfully, managers must create space for discussions, establish innovation networks, and continually develop new ideas.
