Breakthrough Management Group International to Host One-Day Executive Workshop, an Executive Introduction to Innovation

    DENVER, CO, February 20, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Innovation is no longer the domain of the R&D department. Organizations that have figured this out are remaking themselves and dominating their industries. By approaching innovation as an opportunity to enhance teamwork and collective thinking abilities, employees discover a new arsenal of solutions that didn't seem possible before. Instead of settling for solution A or B, innovation helps you uncover the uncompromising solution C. When you leverage a systematic approach to innovation, you enable people to break down old paradigms and approach new challenges in a reliable and repeatable way, equating to continued success and sustainability. To help organizations understand systematic innovation and increase their organizations problem solving abilities; Breakthrough Management Group International (BMGI) has put together a one day executive workshop, An Executive Introduction to Innovation to be held March 11, 2009 at the Cincinnati Marriott Riverview, Cincinnati, OH.
