In more and more companies the managerial call for "innovation" and "change" has lost its fans: employees have witnessed too many innovations come and go. Many have lost their believe in the power of change initiatives. Despite every objection, in a rapidly changing world the question of how to skillfully handle “the new” ("innovare" = renewing) is more relevant than ever. And knowledge about powerful innovation and change management strategies more valuable than ever. Since 2009, artop has done intense research on challenges and opportunities of promoting innovation and change initiatives. In studies with several hundred organisations central indicators have been identified that significantly increase the likelihood of successful innovation and change projects.
