The 2016 NIC Virtual Conference Site is Now Open!
Join us for our interactive keynote session -
Innovation by Design: Leadership for Agility
Clark Quinn, Ph. D.
In this era of accelerating change, organizations are increasingly finding that they need to be more adaptive. Agility stems from the ability to learn faster in the moment, not just from formal training courses. When you are problem-solving (and designing and researching along the way) you don't always know the answer when you begin - you are inherently learning as you problem-solve. Research has demonstrated that there are robust solutions for developing the ability to innovate. The answer comes from the power of people. We know that when we have the right practices and the right culture, we can get the best solutions. In this interactive keynote, we will explore what innovation is, what leads to innovation, what the barriers are to innovating, and what you need to do to get moving towards leadership agility!
