Presenter: Lewis Atkinson
Organisation: Impact Innovation Group

When Australian businesses are being established, they are taught the importance of financial viability, sustainable business models and having a long-term strategy. Yet, once the business is established, very few are taught how to react to market, client and industry change.

This action of strategic innovation allows firms to incorporate emotional intelligence which exists, both within the founder and the business, to identify and comprehend market forces, consumer trends and shifts in demand. Being able to integrate and leverage change through strategic innovation is an incredibly powerful skill that ensures longevity in the marketplace.

In this webinar, Lewe Atkinson, Senior Associate with the Impact Innovation Group, will review the application of strategic innovation and how established businesses can use it to align themselves to take full advantage of disrupt changes within the market landscape.
Find out the potential economic impact on businesses in Queensland, as well as what skill development will be required to ensure your business takes advantage of the new technologies coming.
