Building an Innovation Culture

4 Characteristics of a Future Proof Organization

More detailed information

Businesses are being confronted with a Transformation Tsunami. They need to be able to adapt constantly to survive rapid change. But is it enough to adapt your business to the next megatrend? To adopt the next-big-technology-thing? To slightly tweak your business model to evolving customer needs? Probably not!


To be future proof, we need to completely reinvent business models and embrace disruptors like Generative AI throughout our organization. And above all… we need to redesign our organizations to make our co-workers ready for any change that lies ahead. 


In his keynote talk, Tom will elaborate on how to create a culture of innovation and reinvention by embracing the principles of ‘purpose’, ‘empowerment’ and ‘collaboration. Moreover, he will explain how to activate them across the business by installing new daily habits around each of these. After all, organizations don’t innovate… people do!
