As part of Ageing Australia’s InnovAGEING initiative, this program has been designed to equip and future proof senior leaders with world leading strategic innovation skills.

At the same time, it will connect you with a network of like-minded leaders who are as ambitious and committed to change as you are.

You will meet other sector thought leaders and have the opportunity to work together in small groups on an area of shared strategic interest.

With periodic check-ins and presentations to and from the group, you will have access to live feedback from your peers and our innovation experts, with the opportunity to pitch a pilot concept on the final day.

You will take the amended pilot canvas back to your leadership team in implementation-ready form and be able make immediate progress on an aspect of your current strategy.

The program is grounded in the absolute latest cognitive and social neuroscience and covers the strategic innovation essentials of:

• Framing: Thinking from first principles and identifying potent strategic levers for systemic change.
• Reflexion: Strengths-led discovery, combined with an exploration of creative alpha brain-states.
• Analogy: Mining metaphors for insight, including the 3.8 billion years of nature’s genius.
• Modelling: Mental modelling with the hand-brain connection; ‘building to think’.
• Emagination: Advanced ideation techniques incorporating empathy in artificial intelligence.
• Socialisation: Establishing credibility and emotional connection with neuroscientific narratives.
• Experimentation: Reducing cost and risk with skillful pilot design and experimentation.
• Transformation: Embedding change through collective habit formation and new ways of working.
