STRATEGIC INNOVATION MANAGEMENT
MAIN EDUCATIONAL AIMS:
Analyze the key innovation management concepts that every person with
decision making power within the enterprise will need to master. We will discuss
how these concepts interact and will develop strategic business models,
including customer perceived value, strategic planning, and managerial
innovations.
Identify what innovation means, and use such a concept in order for the
enterprise to maximize its assets. Innovation exists when we are capable to
offer our customers a more advanced product or service and this new feature, is
perceived by the client as value added to the product or service, which implies
that is willing to pay more for it. Perceived value is the key for innovation
management.
On the other hand, we must realize that competition among enterprises does
not develop at the product level, but rather at the business model level. This is
the reason why value innovation must be applied to the search of new
management developments for our business model.
