Building capability
Disruptive Innovation Leadership Course is a professional development program that cultivates future thinking in participants. The purpose of this intensive, interactive workshop is to create an opportunity mindset through the introduction of strategic innovation lenses to fuel decision making and build a culture of innovation that empowers leaders with confidence and an understanding of the thinking patterns and practical skills required to proactively identify and capitalise on new opportunities available in the digital economy.

“The key motivation to participate in the Disruptive Innovation Leadership Course (DILC) was to provide staff with a greater understanding of innovation principles, to instil the cultural concepts and value of an innovative workplace, and to equip staff with the skills and confidence to implement innovative and disruptive approaches to enhance their work. The course had the right balance of theory, discussion, group work and application through engaging activities facilitated by highly motivated and professional QUT staff. The highlight of the course was the Innovation Tour that provided participants with first hand exposure to cutting edge innovations in practice. The DILC has strengthened our organisation’s capability by equipping participants with highly valuable and readily transferable knowledge and new ways of thinking about and approaching innovation. The feedback from participants has been very positive and the course is highly recommended to organisations seeking to broaden their staff’s thinking, introduce new ways of solving problems and harness a culture of innovation.”
