What’s stopping your most important opportunity from creating value?

Innovation brings uncertainty – that’s where The Innovation Compass helps. Bring fresh thinking when work is ‘stuck’, build your skills and employability.

Not sure which route is right for you?

Choose Explorer if you want to work independently and at your own pace. Choose Navigator if you have a live challenge and want expert guidance, peer input and a structure to keep you moving. Choose Expedition if several people need to work on a shared organisational priority and you want a private, tailored programme.

Yes. If you want to focus on one specific area, you can buy an individual Innovation Compass course rather than the full Explorer route.

Not for Explorer or an individual course, although you’ll get much more from them if you actually apply them to your work. For Navigator and Expedition, yes – you’ll get most value by applying the learning to a real opportunity, problem or challenge. It does not need to be fully defined; part of the process is working out what is really worth solving.

Both. Explorer is designed for people who want to learn independently. Navigator is for individuals who want guided support around a live challenge, or for small teams in one organisation who want to be part of a group. Expedition is for teams and organisations that need to work together on shared priorities.
