"This is really, really good stuff." — Seth Godin

Ingenious Leadership is a 1 — 2 day workshop that helps managers, supervisors, team leaders, and change agents get out of their collective boxes in order to create a workplace environment conducive to non-stop innovation. Non-prescriptive by design, Ingenious Leadership gives your key people an all-too-rare opportunity to step back, think big and reinvent the way they ignite, foster, and sustain the creative process.

Why bother? Because the future of your business depends on new ideas. And the future of your company's new ideas depends on the ability of your managers to establish the kind of environment in which these ideas can be originated, communicated, developed, and eventually brought to market. Pep talks aren't enough. Neither are slogans, posters or the occasional article in your company newsletter. What's needed is something very different — managers who not only walk the talk, but actually model what it means to be a break through innovator.

The challenge is clear. In most organizations, managers — no matter how innovative they might personally be — don't have the foggiest notion of how to unlock genius in others. Or how to address their organization's cultural issues — those deeply embedded patterns of thought and action that make it hard to establish a sustainable climate of creativity. And even though most companies these days are proudly citing "innovation" as a core competency worth developing, it's the rare Leadership Development program that addresses this competency directly.

Enter Ingenious Leadership, a golden opportunity for managers of all shapes, sizes and social styles to collaborate with like-minded peers on how to create the breakthrough workplace of the future.
