Learner goals and capabilities

This course focuses on developing an understanding of complex issues in innovation management - from creating early stages through to market adoption and economic development. Innovation and managing new technologies are vital components of a firm's success and profitability. Students can examine organisational systems, structures and processes for innovative capacity, and develop the analytical tools for technology forecasting and road-mapping. Students can help your organisation identify: appropriate framework to explore creative idea/concept; development of critical success factors linked to technological, market, financial and/or intellectual property diffusion barriers; and develop credible strategy to help your organisation make critical improvements when a new technology is introduced.
