5 Preface We all witness the tremendous demand for innovation that is occurring in a wide array of contexts, social, technical and organizational. Unprecedented changes in the business environments and social challenges are driving this demand for innovation. Organizations are nowadays recognizing that innovation does not happen by simply proposing something new, but is dependent on the capability to enact change. In turn, this depends on the existence of what we can term innovation leaders. Innovation Leaders are people who have the right skills and competencies and are in a position to influence points of view, practices, decisions and actions. This is in contrast to the traditional culture of leadership, which has grown around the norms of hierarchical decision making, risk-averse decision making and resource management for efficiency. In fact, innovation is emerging as a new mode of leadership, one that imagines and crafts alternative futures in the context of open and cooperative processes. Educational institutions around the world have in recent years given birth to a variety of educational programs having the aim of generating the next cadre of innovation leaders. Such programs have originated somewhat independently and from different fields, but share very similar objectives and a common understanding of the central role of multidisciplinarity and creativity in problem solving. In 2012 and 2013, a selected group of senior decision makers from these educational institutions, together with representatives from public agencies and private organizations, met in Como (Italy) for what has been named the Creating Innovation Leaders summit, a think-tank of selected individuals for promoting innovation and creating the leaders of such cultural change, and for reasoning about the opportunities that may favor innovation programs (or the obstacles that should be removed) so as to increase the spreading and relevance of such programs. During 2014, a small group of ten participants to the two summits decided to spend a week together in further discussion targeted to the consolidation of the main results of the 2012 and 1013 summits in the form of a book. The focus of the book is the process of educating (creating) innovation leaders through specialized v
6 vi Preface programs, pursued by leading academic schools, in the hope that such programs will soon become widespread, consolidate, extend, and become viral; the authors felt that their educational experiences were very similar, and they agreed that a greater awareness of these educational experiences is by itself a tangible output that will help the creation of innovation leadership. Content The book starts with Part I consisting of six chapters which have been jointly designed by the ten authors, with a rigorous plan of content progression in mind, which moves from (1) innovation to (2) the ecosystems where innovation occurs, to (3) innovation leadership, to (4) the needs of changing education, to (5) a taxonomy of advanced educational experiences, to (6) cases of positive vs. negative innovation leadership in action upon complex problems. We show that a new kind of innovation leadership is much needed, how it can be created, and how it is put in action. Subsequently, Part II is a collection of invited chapters which describe ten leading academic programs for creating innovation leaders: their objectives, curricular organization, enrollment procedures, impact upon students. Selected programs include four north American institutions (Stanford s d.school, Harvard s Multidisciplinary Engineering Faculty, the Kambar College at Philadelphia University, OCAD s Master of Design on Strategic Foresight & Innovation), five European institutions (Alta Scuola Politecnica of Milano and Torino, the EIT Master Program, Paris D-School, Brighton s Interdisciplinary Design Program, Aalto s International Design Business Management Program) and the Mission D program at Tongji University. Thus, while the first six chapters provide the theoretical foundations of why and how innovation leaders should be created, Part II gives evidence that such theoretical foundations are already in action in the programs of ten top-level universities. We next describe the six chapters of Part I in greater detail. In Chap. 1, we question what is innovation. At the most fundamental level, innovation is the ability to deliver new outcomes, paradigms, value, and transformations. It involves using many different skills and modalities to creatively frame the problem, generate radically effective options, make strategic decisions, and manage a pathway to effective execution in a way such that no matter how complex or ill-defined a challenge happens to be, a disproportionately effective or valuable set of outcomes is generated. In Chap. 2, we discuss how the innovation ecosystem results from the complex intricacies between pedagogy, practical processes, delivery systems and services. The innovation ecosystem is working well when educational institutions work together with partner stakeholders, such as government agencies, industry, startups, venture capitalists and non-profit organizations, to build new types of platforms and relationships that create impactful outcomes. This chapter also proposes
7 Preface vii innovation diagnostic instruments to measure the degree of penetration of innovation and the presence of key individual roles and collective group skills within the organization, and the overall strength of the ecosystem in terms of relationships and networking. Chapter 3 dwells into the main topic of this book, innovation leadership, defined as the capacity to continually outperform normative techniques and to identify leverage points for delivering scaled transformations which generate new system behavior. The need of innovation leadership is framed in the context of current society evolution which requires breaking disciplinary silos and normative patterns, yielding to an innovation ecosystem with many new actors and their relationships. The resulting innovation methodology brings about the culture of reframing intentionality, developing new perspectives, reframing the goals, creating powerful and transformational strategies and iterating the delivery of impact through an iterative process of ideating, prototyping, testing, and continuous reframing. Chapter 4 deals with the changing face of education. After recognizing that education is challenged by online sources of commoditized knowledge, the super-fast evolution of technology required by many professions, and the need of continuous education and of deeper interdisciplinary approaches, the chapter dwells upon new participative models of activities in class and develops a qualification framework for innovation leadership that details knowledge, skills and competences for innovation agents, leaders, and gurus. It then reframes the purpose of higher education and discusses new pedagogical models of interaction, motivation, and engagement, from teaching-centric to learning-centric. Chapter 5 deals with interdisciplinary innovation programs. Interdisciplinary programs and courses are being recognized as an important aspect of education, but curricula transformation is occurring in a multifaceted, chaotic way; codification and systematization are needed for a broader dissemination. The chapter offers a taxonomy of concepts (including intra-, inter-, cross-, trans-disciplinarity) and of innovation program characteristics, offering short descriptions of relevant examples and discussing the key issues and emerging questions for the future. Finally, Chap. 6 takes an applied view, by showing examples of complex contexts where a new innovation leadership has led to a positive outcome, and of problems where the lack of a leadership modalities, as discussed in Chap. 3, has instead created damage, concluding with a discussion of emerging challenges that will require a heavy application of the innovation leadership described in this book. Intended Readership The book is dedicated to those who feel the need of providing stimuli regarding innovation and innovation leadership, primarily but not exclusively in academia. These include, but are not limited to, deans and provosts of academic institutions, senior managers in private organizations and policy makers in government. Its
8 viii Preface intended readership also includes anyone who is engaged in promoting innovation within his own organization, and who feels the need to enrich the intellectual and practical toolbox he uses for this demanding and exciting endeavor. Though most of the editors and coauthors of the material come from higher education institutions, the overall approach is not academic and research-based. In fact, the discussion directly comes from the collective and practical experience gained not only by designing and running educational programs, but also by delivering innovation-focused projects in many types of organizations, and in assisting governmental institutions in defining policy.
