Team building for Innovation
We equip clinical teams and frontline healthcare workers with tools and mindsets to solve pressing problems innovatively.
-
Through immersive workshops, we teach proven innovation techniques like design sprints, agile planning, prototyping, user testing, and experimentation.
-
Hands-on simulations provide experience scoping challenges, ideating solutions, soliciting user feedback, and rapidly iterating.
-
We enable teams to implement innovation skills through customized coaching, mentoring, and training tailored to their needs.
-
Participants learn how to sustain cultures of innovation long after our sessions end
Here is a draft overview of the steps involved in implementing our team building for innovation program within a healthcare organization.
This provides a framework for building innovation capabilities within healthcare teams through training, mentorship, and ongoing support. The activities are tailored based on the team's needs and innovation goals.
1
Assess the team's innovation capabilities
- Understand the team's objectives, challenges, and dynamics
- Identify gaps in innovation knowledge, behaviors and processes
2
Define innovation goals and focus areas
- Align innovation goals to team objectives and organization's needs
- Select 1-2 focus areas for innovation e.g. patient experience, clinical workflow etc.
3
Deliver innovation training workshops
- Equip teams with design thinking, agile, lean startup through hands-on sessions
- Foster creative mindsets through exercises and techniques
- Provide frameworks to scope problems, ideate solutions, gather feedback
4
Coach on rapid prototyping
- Guide teams through low-fidelity prototyping of solutions
- Advise on lean and flexible requirements gathering
- Connect teams to resources needed for prototyping
5
Facilitate user testing and feedback
- Help teams identify relevant users for testing
- Observe as users interact with prototypes and provide feedback
- Highlight insights from user interviews and make recommendations
6
Support transition to rapid development
- Train teams on agile ceremonies like sprints, standups, retrospectives
- Advise on effective backlog grooming, story point estimation
- Partner on scoping feasible MVPs based on user inputs
7
Instill behaviors for sustained innovation
- Reinforce learnings on iteration, failing fast, collaboration
- Guide on updating ideas based on continuous user feedback
- Enable autonomy to make decisions and self-organize
8
Track results and iterate
- Work with teams to identify key innovation metrics and KPIs
- Measure progress on innovation capabilities over time
- Adjust workshops and coaching based on successes and gaps
