Dr. Chandrasekaran’s session, Creating a Culture of Innovation and Learning, will explore how organizations struggle to create a culture that allows everyone to innovate, grow and transform consistently. Research conducted in over 100 large, medium, and small-sized organizations shows that creating a culture for innovation and learning requires leaders to acquire five specific skill sets that can promote reflection, psychological safety, transparency, agile decision making and diverse thinking.  In this conversation, we will see how to build these skills that can be foundational to your success as change agents of the future.

The workshop will involve assessing the participants’ organizations on these capabilities and offer research-based insights on how to develop strategy, process and behavioral skills that can enable a culture of learning.
