Common Challenges
   • Few people understand the role
   • Roles and responsibilities can be very unclear
        – Get drawn into too much tactical coordination
   • Lack the authority to carry out their responsibilities
        – Little influence on corporate branding, channel
          selection, or advertising
   • More common in technology than in consumer goods

What Makes A Great Workplace
   • Employees trust the people they work for
   • Employees take pride in what they do
   • Employees enjoy working with each other

       It’s not all about the perks and extravagant
    benefits; it’s the relationships at work that matter.

   Innovation is a central element of business growth strategy within companies that aim to
   generate added value for their customers, the company itself, and other stakeholders. While
   many company executives and business leaders agree that in order for their companies to survive
   today's increasingly global marketplace, they must face the unpleasant truth that there may have
   to be fundamental changes in who they are, what they do, and how they do it. Few executives
   feel their companies are good at the specific processes and tactics frequently tied to successful
   innovation, such as generating breakthrough ideas, selecting the right ideas, prototyping, and
   developing business cases. We will provide insights to help you define and implement a process
   to drive innovation within your company using a sustainable approach to ignite business
   growth.

While many company executives and business leaders agree that in order for their companies to survive today's increasingly global marketplace, they must face the unpleasant truth that there may have to be fundamental changes in who they are, what they do, and how they do it. Few executives feel their companies are good at the specific processes and tactics frequently tied to successful innovation, such as generating breakthrough ideas, selecting the right ideas, prototyping, and developing business cases. We will provide insights to help you define and implement a process to drive innovation within your company using a sustainable approach to ignite business growth. © AIPMM 2012

It is the world's largest professional network with over 100 million members and growing rapidly. It’s the most widely used tool to network and find job leads.Twitter is a real-time information network that connects you to what is happening right now with people, groups or companies that you want to follow.Facebook is a social media tool that allows you to connect with people, groups or companies that you want to follow.Use Facebook and Twitter to complement your networking using LinkedIn.Use YouTube to find career advice and track companies.Seek out job-search advice.All four of these networks are great places to find advice on job-hunting and mingle with other job seekers.

  14. Identify your key differentiators.
  15. Your sales pitch should be compelling and concise.You should be able to deliver it in 30 seconds or less.
  16. Hyperlink your marketing collateral.Add the URL for your Twitter handle and LinkedIn profile to your contact information on your resume.
