Teams Made in Heaven: How to design effective innovation teams in an era of disruption

Teams Made in Heaven: How to design effective innovation teams in an era of disruption. An interactive workshop mapping personality strengths, focusing in particular on individuals’ approach to innovation - creative, intuitive, futuristic and exploratory, or conformist rational and driven by the past?
