What is the Strategic Innovation Capacity Building course about?
Even well-resourced programs fail to scale breakthroughs because they lack a unified innovation operating model. Local wins don’t translate globally. Lessons aren’t captured. Momentum dissipates across sites. Without a deliberate capacity-building framework, organizations keep reinventing the wheel, slowing delivery and diluting impact.
