What is the Operationally-Sound Innovation Capacity course about?

Professionals are expected to drive innovation, yet most frameworks are built for startups or greenfield teams. In established organizations, legacy systems, compliance needs, and matrixed reporting make execution messy. Hybrid work adds coordination overhead, eroding momentum. The result: promising ideas fail to scale or deliver reliably.
