Talking about a revolution: breaking down cultural barriers to innovation
Despite the many great efforts of individuals and organisations, examples of innovation within utilities remain isolated and great innovations are not deployed at scale. Our panelists set out the practical solutions to this perennial issue, including:
- Don't reinvent the wheel - learning from what has already been done
- Investing in the supply chain and offering critical support to innovators
- Overcoming siloes of excellence and gaining buy in across the boardroom and business
- Embedding proven innovations into business as usual
- Measuring and communicating the impact of innovation
