EDG offers a range of tools to help users increase their capacity for innovation and change. Each tool can be applied independently or in connection with our services and training.
Industry after industry is being impacted by rapidly evolving hyper-digital advances such as AI – and now also increasingly by the inescapable requirements for significant regenerative solutions. EDG’s training and tools are designed to give leaders, managers, teams and change agents the capabilities they need to envision and create the future in response to this ever more dynamic environment.
Our training programs are customized for enterprises of various size and scope, from global corporations; to divisions or functions such as purchasing, finance, and human resources; to cross-functional work groups, start-up ventures and project teams. Workshops can benefit groups that cross company boundaries as well, including strategic partners, supplier alliances, industry associations, or larger-scale innovation ecosystems.
Stand-alone training programs can be bridged with implementation support to ensure new practices and tools are integrated into the ongoing work of the enterprise. The trainings can be conducted onsite or in California with our flagship Secrets of Silicon Valley Innovation Immersion program.
Workshops are fast-paced, interactive and focus on real work. We present a concept, apply it, present another and apply it—continuing this pattern of instruction and application throughout the sessions. When participants complete a course, they have new sets of concepts and tools as well as fresh ideas for confronting their toughest challenges.
Innovation Strategy Blueprints
Our Innovation Blueprint programs enable leaders, managers and teams to understand the disruptions and transformations that are impacting their industry and create a clear roadmap for moving forward. The Innovation Blueprint is a thinking and planning tool to clarify the innovation strategy, the organization design needed to deliver this strategy, and the leadership, stakeholder engagement, and support required to reach the intended future. Participants will leave with an actual map in hand that integrates their learning from the workshop, along with a clear set of next steps for themselves and their teams.
