Secrets of excellence
Innovate like a start-up
The rise in power of digital innovations is often perceived as a threat for the established players. Against start-ups, how can they reinvent themselves to win the race for innovation?
Foster radical innovation
Innovation is at the heart of company priorities. Yet, large organizations mostly limit themselves to marginal innovations while leaving start-ups the prerogative for disruptive innovations. How can you set up an environment that is propitious to radical innovation?
Liberating the company: returns of experience
The notion of liberated company remains controversial: some see in it an ideal model, others a deception. In any event, it raises a key question: how can you combine individual autonomy and collective efficiency?
Selling your innovative ideas
Any innovative project owner faces a paradox: the novelty nature of his/her idea is precisely what gives it value; yet, it is also what generates reluctance. How can you release these brakes to get your innovative ideas across better?

Business leaders are rarely represented as people who question themselves. Yet, managers should be equally able to question as they are to affirm; but it seems this capability has somewhat been lost. How to get it back?
Building trust
The level of trust is generally low in business organizations, while it constitutes a real performance challenge. How can you identify the behaviors that will enable you to build trust—or, conversely, that might destroy it?

The rise in employee competence represents a major competitive challenge for companies. How can you rethink training to reinforce the acquisition of essential competences for tomorrow’s world?
