Innovation Accelerator

Course Description

This workshop helps leaders and coaches build the capability to guide innovation initiatives with a clear method, strong collaboration, and measurable success criteria. It’s a working session, not a lecture series: brief refreshers, hands-on sessions, and frequent check-ins to keep the group aligned and moving.

You’ll start with customer experience and pain points, then widen the lens to the full value stream so you can see where work slows, breaks, or adds friction. After that, you’ll pressure-test assumptions, build prototypes, define an improved operating model, and translate the solution into an Agile-friendly plan with vision, strategy, and a structured backlog.

Who Should Attend

Ideal for:

• Innovation, transformation, and entrepreneurship champions
• Managers and coaches responsible for internal learning and coaching in innovation practices
• Leaders who need a structured way to guide discovery and delivery across teams

What You Will Learn

You’ll leave able to:

• Read customer experience with more accuracy (not assumptions)
• Map the value stream and use a holistic view to frame better solutions
• Find root causes using practical techniques (not guesswork)
• Spot quick wins while still building toward durable improvement
• Define a target operating model and how success will be measured
• Prepare the groundwork for Agile delivery, from vision to backlog

Workshop Approach

The workshop keeps momentum with a clear split:

• 15% short theory sessions and refreshers
• 65% hands-on experimentation and exercises
• 20% feedback and retrospective sessions

The aim is reusable learning—methods and habits you can apply back at work, not just notes you file away.
