Over the last two decades, companies have done a great job of improving profitability through cost-cutting and efficiency gains. With little room left to cut, companies are now seeking to boost profitability by improving the top line through organic growth. This workshop focuses on the two key drivers of organic growth: innovation and new product development. Both of these are core areas of expertise at Georgia Tech, and our professors will bring to the program their extensive experience in researching, teaching, and consulting on innovation and new product development. Participants will develop an understanding of what leaders need to do in order to stimulate and develop new ideas into innovations and new products.
