Overview
Turn innovation into your team’s competitive edge
Innovation Eats Uncertainty shares the mindset and tools you need to lead through uncertainty and unlock innovation in your team. The world you’re leading in is more volatile and complex than ever before, and competition and disruption move faster than any plan can account for. You’re expected to drive fresh thinking in your team, but you also have to meet your usual delivery targets. In this book, you’ll discover how to better lead innovation on the projects you’re already running, plus build for future growth.
Innovation is a core leadership skill, and author Nathan Baird has spent 25+ years helping managers, leaders and executives build it. In Innovation Eats Uncertainty, he shows you step-by-step how to put in place the processes, systems and ways of working that enable innovation to take hold. You’ll discover how to turn innovation from a side project into the way your team works every day.
