Summary

Brings together the latest business thinking, cutting edge online material and all the practical techniques you need to fast track your career.- Presents a fully integrated approach to innovation. There is no quick fix to establishing a culture of innovation across an entire organisation - it needs to be reflected in all six key elements of an integrated framework- Covers innovation beyond New Product Development (NPD). Much discussion focuses on innovation related to NPD - however most new ideas for performance improvement now focus on other areas such as innovative marketing initiatives, new packaging or pricing solutions, or improvements in operational processes.- Unique combination of practical business tools, real life case stories and thought leadership.- Goes beyond skills development to link directly to personal career development.- Specifically tailored to the travel market - structured in easily digestible sections with quick insights and FAQs.- Designed to appeal to an international audience. Companies that innovate successfully get six key things right. These are: planning; pipeline; process; platform; people; and performance, and you need to get them right too. Fast Track to Success: Innovation gives you a practical framework that will help you seek out new commercial opportunities and develop new and better ways of doing things. For innovation to be more than a buzzword it has to be deeply integrated into a team's structure - Fast Track to Success: Innovation presents an integrated approach that will accelerate your move from buzzwords to practical steps to implementation.
