Intro to Culture of Innovation

Instructor: Jeremy Gutsche
Peter Drucker, the father of management thinking, used to say, “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” The concept is that your great idea doesn’t matter if you can’t put that idea into action and make it happen.

This course will help you build a culture that enables disruptive thinking, instead of leading your company toward disruption and failure.
Jeremy Gutsche Keynote Speaker
