Innovation is human, before it is technological
Innovation isn’t just about technology investment, brainstorming techniques, or dedicated innovation teams. At its core and often missed is the human capability to adapt more effective behaviours, one that exists across every role in an organisation.
As AI accelerates how we generate ideas, analyse data, and automate decisions, leaders face a new challenge: how do we ensure innovation remains creative, adaptive, and impactful, rather than efficient but shallow?
This full-day, in-person experience brings together Dr Stewart Desson, global personality and organisational development expert, with Rahul Baswani, India Partner at Lumina Learning, to help recognise the strategic awareness of behaviour as a defining role in the creative thinking, leadership and progress of organisations in an AI-enabled world.
Together, they will explore:
- How personality sparks innovation that AI cannot replace
- Where AI can enhance innovation and where it can quietly constrain it
- How leaders can intentionally combine human insight with intelligent use of AI to create real organisational impact
