Along the lines of “Team up, Disrupt, and Innovate” and supported by ITONICS Enterprise, Cisco established the Innovate Everywhere Challenge as a vehicle to shape its future growth. The goal is to drive global disruptive thinking, capture game-changing innovation opportunities from Cisco employees, help them grow and enhance employee experience, empowerment, and collaboration across all functions. The innovation challenge is now a best practice for innovation management at Cisco.
The success story provides insight into:
- the development of a company-wide start-up and innovation culture at a market leader in the IT and technology sector.
- measures to establish disruptive thinking across all business units, functions, and regions and to encourage entrepreneurial thinking in every employee.
- a company-wide innovation challenge that attracts yearly more than 36,000 employees to participate.
