FedEx Delivers: How the World's Leading Shipping Company Keeps Innovating and Outperforming the Competition
This seminar presents a step-by-step blueprint for building and sustaining an innovation and performance culture. It starts out by asking the question, “If business leaders recognize the need for innovation, why is it that only a few succeed in that quest?" What exactly are the roadblocks to innovation? The five most common roadblocks are discussed. The managers will develop the required competencies and skills to adapt to the new and unforeseen realities. Using real world case studies the seminar trains leaders to thrive in complex environments, deliver innovative solutions and act on behalf of multiple stakeholders.
The standard leadership training, most managers have been through, does not work for technical managers and professionals. One of the reasons for this gap between training and leadership behaviors on the job is that technical managers and professionals are programmed differently. They have a strong preference for left-brain/analytical activities. Innovation is a people process, and leading for innovation calls upon right brain capabilities. This seminar is specially designed to address this and the other four root causes.
Managers understand the importance of engaging everyone in generating creative ideas and expect employees to do that. But employees experience difficulty in meeting this expectation because they don't know how. This interactive workshop teaches proven and practical skills to bridge the gap between expectations and reality. Every company has sound ideas that don't get accepted or implemented successfully because the person with the idea lacked the necessary communication and people skills. People operate with the assumption that when there is a great idea, everybody will see it and rally around it. The reality does not support this assumption.
