Description
To secure their futures, organisations need to constantly innovate. And if you need compelling evidence of this, 2020 has it in spades. In a moment of reflection, DockPod brought together several of our innovation leaders to discuss what innovation really means when you are working with it day-to-day and whether or not companies have a real appetite for the experimentation and attendant failure that is necessary to make it work. This episode features Ryan Shanks, Director of The Dock in Dublin, which is Accenture’s global R&D center. He is joined by: Europe Innovation Lead Lucy Cooper; Senthil Ramani who looks after Innovation in the Growth Markets; and Shivani Vora who leads Innovation for North America. DockPod is produced by The Dock, Accenture’s flagship R&D and global innovation center. It is presented by Laurence Mackin and produced by Sinead O’Shea.
