A strong innovation culture is the driving force behind many of today’s most successful companies. Organisational culture is said to be largely invisible yet extremely powerful. It refers to the values, beliefs and sense of purpose that underpin the norms of expected behaviours that employees might follow.
According to one study of 1,026 executives and managers in the US, Europe, Latin America and Asia, there are six dynamically linked “building blocks” that support an innovation culture:

Evaluate the extent to which your organisation has mastered the six building blocks of innovation culture.
This concept explores how organisations build up their own culture through tradition, history and structure. It also suggests that culture provides organisations with a sense of identity.
The concept determines the critical factors of innovation management. It reviews the managerial practices of successful innovators and summarises the strengths and limitations of innovative approaches.
The concept outlines core ‘constants’ that can be used to develop effective leadership within the organisation and describes the principles that underpin transformational leadership. The concept will give you an understanding of how to adopt this approach in any organisational setting.
