Abstract
Innovation is the specific tool of entrepreneurs. It is
the process by which they exploit change to bring about
the reallocation of resources from areas of lower productivity
and yield into areas of higher productivity and yield.
The management of innovation is a discipline that can
be learned and practiced. The seminar will provide an
overview of the sources of innovation both within and
outside the enterprise. More importantly, it will focus
on the sustaining and disruptive effects of innovation
on the enterprise. Dr Wyatt will also discuss the importance
of having defined strategies related to managing innovation
within the organization.
