CLL0067 - Certificate in Innovation, Strategy and Leadership
Course Description
"We cannot solve a problem by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." Einstein said this because he understood how hard it is to get beyond current ways of thinking to solve problems. The problems facing organizations are plentiful - service, customer retention, acquisition, efficiency, societal pressures, diversity, accountability, and on and on. And, those problems are ever changing and seem to be increasing. Racing toward 10 billion people on this planet will result in challenges of epic proportions.
