Areas of Expertise and Consulting
DESIGNING ORGANISATION AND SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT
Accelerating internal projects and guiding the selection of external innovations
SUPPORTING INNOVATION INTEGRATION
Research on organisational readiness for transformation, assessment of organisational changes
ORGANISING THE FORESIGHT PROGRAMME
Events bridging representatives of educational organisations, regional governments, the expert community and industries to design development strategies
Tools for Exploring the Innovative Potential of Organisations and Regions
-
Digital technology readiness of employees
A survey to measure the propensity of educational organisation employees to use new technologies. Managers get the opportunity to organise targeted support for teachers with low levels of digital technology readiness and utilise the potential of employees who are ready to implement new digital technologies in educational practices.
-
Adaptive-innovative cognitive styles
A survey to determine educators' cognitive styles. Managers get the opportunity to effectively distribute tasks and form teams.
-
Motivation of innovators in education
A survey to determine the motivations of educational innovators to create projects. Managers are able to involve innovators more effectively in solving essential issues.
