Lean Innovation in Large Corporates

Talk given at Tech4Africa Cape Town, 6 August 2015 What are the ingredients you need to not only kickstart corporate innovation, but to sustain it and deliver tangible business results? Drawing on my recent experience as Innovation Lab Director at Pearson Education, I reflect on a number of these key enablers and how they played out in the context of the perceived sea change in education. Topics covered include Executive support, investment and funding models, separation of product development and innovation, empowered decision-making, and the very real impact of oft-ignored HR and Operational policies and practices.
