Organizations often identify innovation as a critical strategic objective, yet struggle to achieve it because it is not supported by their organizational culture. This workshop guides you through an exploration of what a healthy focus on strategy and culture might look like, and how it can support workplace innovation. Based on the final course in the Graduate Certificate in Workplace Innovation at Royal Roads University, this workshop provides an overview of the concepts and activities that are part of the nine-week online program.

We don’t have control over most change, but we do have control over how we respond to it. The key to this response is resilience – and the good news is that it can be developed. In this interactive and experiential four-week online course, you will learn practical techniques for strengthening resilience, including the use of mindfulness practices which has been proven to be one of the most effective techniques.
