Get Wild for Innovation!
As a featured blogger on this network, I've tried very hard to keep the info on my posts very different from the content I post on my NH Division of Economic Development "No Bull Business Blog". However, I really feel that an upcoming workshop we're presenting in partnership with Public Service of New Hampshire and the University of New Hampshire merits coverage here. It's time that we all get "Wild for Innovation!"
UNH workshop focuses on leadership, team building and innovation
Business Community Invited to Get “Wild for Innovation”
DURHAM, NH - What is it that all successful teams have in common? Find out on March 5th, 2010 when the UNH Wildcats, the Whittemore School of Business, the New Hampshire Division of Economic Development and Public Service of New Hampshire host a unique afternoon workshop at UNH aimed at building teams, developing effective leaders and stimulating innovation.
The "Wild for Innovation" workshop has been developed specifically for New Hampshire business leaders and their teams. Participants will attend classes on innovation and leadership effectiveness from Whittemore professors, experience the innovations in the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences, and work directly with UNH athletics coaches on team building. There will be a special look at UNH’s Green Launching Pad as well as a discussion led by Vanessa Druskat, UNH’s Associate Professor of Organizational Behavior and Management on leader effectiveness. The event will culminate with a BBQ tailgate party, a team picture and reserved seats to see the nationally ranked Wildcat hockey team in action against the Boston College Eagles.
"This is a unique opportunity for New Hampshire businesses to spend an afternoon focusing on techniques for building a winning team," said New Hampshire Division of Economic Development Interim Director Roy Duddy. "Innovation is a team sport and we know that great teams don't just happen. It takes practice, focus and commitment to be successful year after year."
With an eye toward developing leaders for tomorrow, the workshop sessions will address opportunities for every type of New Hampshire business, from the service sector to the emerging areas of renewable energy and nanotechnology.
"Wild for Innovation day could be a seminal moment for the business leaders of the next decade," according to Pat McDermott, the Economic and Community Development Manager at Public Service of NH, the lead sponsor of the event. "In the next ten years, start-up companies and corporate stalwarts will all face the same challenges, and those with the best leaders and strongest teams will be most likely to succeed."
The Wild for Innovation workshop will be held at UNH in Durham on March 5, 2010. The event is limited to 100 participants and registration is $50 per person. Companies are encouraged to register their teams online as early as possible by visiting wildforinnovation.eventbrite.com.
