Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ MCE in brief FOCUS 1.Business education 1.Management Development 1.Organisational Development for International Corporations/Organisations

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Gaby Boone Organisational psychologist Background: Management Development, Organisational Development Where: 3M, Citibank, Honeywell, Europay, Swissair/Sabena, D.I.E.U. Present: Director Programme Development & Faculty Management at Management Centre Europe (MCE) Im a stranger here, but that might be a start of innovative mobility between vocational training and management development

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Vocational Training Management Development Lets find out if Can encounter and learn from each other in stimulating Creativity and Innovation we have a similar task but we dont talk to each other a lot

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Where do we come from? Does it evolve? Academic Learning Involve business people to bridge to reality Continuously search for the appropriate learning set- ups for adults and faster applicability ……. and it moved on: Harvard Case Studies, Outdoor Learning, Blended Solutions, Action Learning, Peer Learning, Metaphor Learning, link it all to Organisational Effectiveness

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Intermezzo Take 30 to ensure that you are guiding your brain towards the right paradigm here: Vocational Training & Management Development are part of the same family : moving individuals, teams and organisations towards a higher/better level >>>> How can we pick-up ideas from what is going on in the garden of my MD/OD brother Lets take that 30

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ What have we been doing in MD/OD? TQM, Re-engineering, managing in multi-cultural realities, globalisation and glocalisation, Lean & Fast, Wall Street pressure, CSR discussions, etc. They all tango with Management Development We have to be innovative to ensure that management education does leverage the bottom-line or the effectiveness of an organisation

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Some Samples – part of the these can be translated into vocational training environments (if they are not there yet) Action Learning Projects Business Simulations translate models into realities Metaphor Learning (Jazz band might give the Aha Erlebnis) Individual Team Cross-functional Cross-countries

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Brains, Hands & Play make an adult learn (e.g. LSP) Engaging stimulates learning: e.g. invite a customer in the classroom Storytelling: e.g. my best experience in coaching Some Samples – part of the these can be translated into vocational training environments (if they are not there yet)

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Take 5: think 1 and tell 1 a learning story to your neighbour

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Peer Learning Knowledge Centres – Collaborative Learning = lets continue And, something we learned from you or the engineers: if you measure it, you can understand it and move the targets Some Samples – part of the these can be translated into vocational training environments (if they are not there yet)

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Face Reality Stimulating Creativity & Steering Innovation might kick-box with internal rules, objectives and corporate culture Create a love affair between organisational effectiveness and innovation

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Preliminary Conclusions ( there are no final ones anyhow) Innovation is simply an Organisational Survival Competence and has to be on the Boards agenda Innovation cant survive without Creativity : this demands courage for taking risks

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ The final goal is the longer term Organisational Effectiveness thats where Vocational Training & Management Development should meet and push the evolution lets start to bridge Preliminary Conclusions (there are no final ones anyhow)

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ Show your contribution to the bottom line, your value of making the organisation more effective (measure) Dont stick to the programmes, the products, the projects but look at the broader frame (Think of what keeps the leaders awake at night and how can we contribute) Organisational Effectiveness

Vectors to Innovation : Bringing the spirit of Leonardo back to Leonardo Vecteurs pour lInnovation : Rendre à Leonardo lesprit de Leonardo Budapest /02/ This demands an ongoing quest for Innovation Innovation = survival & evolution Innovation demands risk Risk is not a danger, it is a task to be managed ….. and it can motivate (your customers, your team & you) Organisational Effectiveness
