(32) Managing Strategic Change, Creativity & Innovation for Global CompetitivenessSINGAPORE l 25-26 June 2007 K LUMPUR l 20-21 September 2007 What are the
secrets of competitive R&D on a global scale? The nineties have seen
the largest international R&D expansion ever. Investigating more
than 1000 R&D laboratories of 80 companies, this course presents the
largest description of global R&D practice. Based on 240
research interviews and case studies from 18 best-practice companies,
the author introduces new concepts and trends that will shape
global R&D management in the early 21st century. Managing
Global Innovation is a rich compendium of new concepts of global
R&D, enlivened by 18 excellent best-in-class case studies.
What is especially impressive, the author bridges seamlessly theoretical
and practical issues about how companies create, transform and
implement new technology in an expanding marketplace. This will be
intriguing to both the industry and the academic world. The lessons
learned are invaluable. The course is a real tour de force, probably
destined to become a standard in this field for some time to come. Organizations
competing in today’s rapidly changing technological markets are faced
with the challenges of dualism, that is, operating efficiently in
the present while innovating effectively for the future. Managers and
leaders within these organizations not only have to focus on current
market success and profitability, but must also introduce the next
generation to technical advances and product or service attributes
that will sustain and even augment their continuing global
competitiveness. Designed for
courses within MBA engineering and executive education programs, this
seminar provides a variety of approaches and perspectives on issues
critical to the effective leadership of technical professionals and
cross-functional teams throughout the innovation process. There are
articles that represent the thoughts and ideas of researchers and
practitioners seeking a richer understanding of the complex interplay
between the specialized knowledge and skills of creative professionals and
the realistic pressures and constraints required by successful business
organizations. The Human Side of Managing Technological Innovation
provides a unique collection of articles that not only increases
the sensitivity and understanding of individuals who must manage
innovation or change process within organizations, but also offers new
ideas, tools, and insights for problem-solving both to practicing
managers and staff professionals. HOW
