INNOVATION-DRIVEN CULTURE TRANSFORMATION (ICT) PROGRAM

Business Challenges for Strategic Executives

Changing company culture to promote innovation is not an easy task. “Transformational change initiatives have a dismal track record”: nearly 70% of change programs do not achieve their goals. Companies seek to proactively drive game-changing breakthroughs, but 41% of CEOs see culture as one of the biggest constraints on business innovation across companies (After Financial Resources, 1^st Rank, 43% of CEOs).

Effective people change management increases the likelihood of innovation programs/projects being successful. If strategic HR and operations can increase talented individuals’ change readiness and minimize their shortcomings, the success rate of strategic innovation initiatives may rise by 40%.
