Idea

Digital or not, you will only succeed with the right innovation culture.
Everyone is convinced that innovation is necessary. And by now we also know that digital will be the new normal. Disruption is on it’s way. Business models are turned upside down. Customer centricity is hot. And right here it becomes key not to forget our own internal customers, our employees. We can solve most of our innovation challenges from within our organization but we will only be able to succeed is we create the appropriate environment. Changing an organizational culture is though, but still possible by setting the right priorities. These can be derived from what our employees experience as climate. The nice thing to know is here that we can influence this climate and most of all, it is measurable! Welcome to CROMAX, the CReative Organization MAtriX.
