Innovation through Diversity,
Education and Social Skills:
Ideas X Skills®
Dr. Silvie Klein-Franke
More than ever, innovative ability and
social competence
are key success factors for organizations, teams and individuals
- Innovative ideas and new scope for action emerge from a multiplicity of perspectives,
i.e. at the interfaces between generations, (professional) disciplines), (business) cultures,
between diverse world views and personality types, in the crossfire of differing life situations
and wherever leeway is provided.
- Social competence is sine qua non for managing this kind of diversity.
Its foundations are respect, empathy, experience, knowledge, reflection, and self-awareness
in the best sense of the word.
Managing diversity can be learned.
Its successful accomplishment unlocks new knowledge and abilities and opens up new perspectives
A constructive approach to diversity
- allows each individual to be more successful in his or her interaction with an
increasingly complex working and living environment;
- enhances innovative ability and job satisfaction within the team;
- allows for whole organizations – beyond the assets of an improved reputation
and new market opportunities – to respond to rapidly changing business environments
in a global economy and world in more speedy, more flexible and, therefore,
more successful ways.
