Question.980 - Demonstrated critical thinking skills and synthesis of ideas: 25% In Module 11 we discussed the advantages of “Innovation Clusters”. Take the opposite view and make an argument against Innovation Clusters as necessary for innovation. What might be the disadvantages in Innovation Clusters? You want UAB to adopt a student-user innovation community that has input into campus life and academic programs. How would you go about implementing this change and overcoming resistance? You are considering becoming an entrepreneur. Apply the 4 frames of value innovation and the strategy canvas to identify a new blue ocean market opportunity (in something other than Autonomous Vehicles) You are the CEO of United Airlines and you have had a pretty difficult month. First, you kicked young women off of a plane because they were wearing yoga pants, then you forcefully dragged a doctor off a plane against his will. While your stock price has mostly rebounded, you had a loss of value of $1 billion the day after the incident with the doctor. You know your organization needs a culture change. Apply Kotter’s 8-step model of change, along with any of the tools we learned about this semester, to the United organization – what would be your strategy for remaking the organization? Be as specific as you can.
