Three Secrets to Stimulating Innovation in Your Organization
|
| |
Innovation has become a primary force driving the growth,
performance, and valuation of companies. A wide gap exists
between the aspirations of executives to innovate and their
ability to execute, says a study from McKinsey titled
"Leadership and Innovation."
McKinsey's research shows
that executives who focus on stimulating and supporting
innovation by their employees can promote and sustain it with
the current talent and resources—and more effectively than they
could by using other incentives.
Three approaches can
help executives mount innovation efforts. First, senior
management should actively support behavior that promotes
innovation. Second, network analysis can identify where the
capacity for innovation already exists within an organization
and help it build more innovative networks. Finally, executives
should seed innovative thinking by focusing on selected managers
and projects.

Online University Student Body Grows
|
|
More than 3.2 million higher ed students enrolled for at least
one online course in 2005, vs. 2.3 in 2004, reported the Sloan
Consortium Study on Online Education. And, the online
enrollments are growing at a considerably higher rate than the
general student body.
Online students tend to be older
than the general student body and are completing undergraduate
courses.
Approximately 96% of large schools (15,000 or
more students) offer online options, almost double that of
smaller campuses. About 75% of large schools host full degree
online programs, while one-sixth of smaller schools offer these
programs.
