Future‐imbedded innovation methodologies

Abstract

The double challenge is how to upgrade problem solving so that it is also innovative and how to position solutions so that they enjoy future longevity. It is possible to do both by employing future‐imbedded innovation methodologies. The new thinking and positioning involved are not only discussed in detail but also applied to leadership innovations in education and business. In addition, further demonstrations, in the areas of corporate training and performance evaluation, are explored. Finally, a profile of a new senior executive position, that of chief learning officer(CLO), and its focus on innovation management is offered as the current state of the art.
