Driving Innovation from Within - A Guide for Employees and Organizational Leaders 'Innovation' brings to mind the maverick entrepreneur who quits their job, at unimaginable odds, to build a business on their own. But this entrepreneurial story is a myth. As a successful entrepreneur, author, consultant and CEO, Kaihan Krippendorff argues that intrapreneurs - employees who incubate new businesses within corporations - have had a far greater impact on the world. Nearly all of the most transformative innovations over the past three decades, from e-mail and the Internet to DNA sequencing and MRI scans, were introduced by employees who did not quit their jobs but instead took the challenge of innovating from within. Drawing on five years of in-depth research of hundreds of successful innovators and Intrapreneurial Intensity, as well as insights from thought leaders, C-suite leaders, business unit leaders, and front-line employees, Kaihan will share exclusive insights from his book, Driving Innovation From Within: A Guide for Internal Entrepreneurs (Columbia University Press, 2019). In this inspiring keynote, you will learn about: The IN-OVATE Framework The seven barriers of internal innovation and how to overcome them The six characteristics of Internal Innovators The seven steps to build an agile innovation team How to disrupt your competition without disrupting your business What it takes to lead an innovative organization and drive transformation How to shift your organizational mindset and culture How to build a wave of internal support for growth, innovation and creativity by reinforcing the idea that innovation is possible, attainable, and ultimately actionable
