Leading Radical Creativity in Ecosystems: The Need for New Solutions in Management Education and Business

Fostering creativity and innovation in organizations, especially within multidisciplinary ecosystems, demands a fresh mindset, updated knowledge, and advanced skills. This requires new approaches in management education to help individuals and organizations adapt.

Organizations need new models and tools to prepare next-generation leaders to drive radical creativity. Equally important is building corporate innovation capabilities to enable effective collaboration across diverse and multidisciplinary ecosystems.

In 2023 and 2024, Aalto EE and Aalto University have examined the key drivers of radical creativity and explored ways to integrate these into business and entrepreneurship education in partnership with various fields and industries.

Development around radical creativity has been made possible through the support of the Saastamoinen Foundation.
