“Innovation Partnerships: Can existing business models keep pace with innovation?”
Business leaders have a growing split on appropriate partnership models for innovation. There are two schools of thought. One is open to experimenting with dynamic business engagement centred on trust. This is based on a belief that value creation in a time of accelerating change requires equally agile partnerships. The other approach insists on incremental changes based on conventional business models run on tested management norms. Is the former approach the future of business? Or does the latter approach present a much-needed safeguard against socio-economic turmoil? What are the impacts of an expanding definition of stakeholders on corporate governance? What do these trends mean for profitability, business education, employment, and employability?
