Inhalte der LV: | ||
Industrial companies are increasingly facing innovation challenges within their ecosystems. Digital technologies, supply chains issues, demographic changes, talent supply, sustainability challenges, and new business models, to name a few, are impacting core organizational processes and capabilities of both established corporations and start-ups more than ever before. These challenges call for new organizational processes and capabilities, forcing companies to review, transform and adapt their existing business models. Students in this award-winning course (WU Innovative Teaching Award 2023; Best Course Presentation @Entrepreneurship Teaching Conference 2022) learn and train systems thinking through agile project management (Scrum) and hypotheses-driven innovation consulting. Given today’s VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous) world, real-life innovation problems of industrial companies require a new problem-solving approach. Students in our course learn to consider such complex systems as a whole, rather than just focusing on individual parts. They structure the problem by analyzing and understanding the relationships between different parts of the innovation problem in the industrial context. They further iteratively develop and validate/reject hypotheses regarding the problem throughout the semester. In collaboration with two lecturers (acting as “Scrum Masters”) and international coaches, students develop a holistic understanding of a complex innovation problem, develop effective solutions, and anticipate unintended consequences. The pedagogy involves systems thinking, Scrum and hypotheses-driven innovation consulting, and real-life innovation challenges. Support for student groups is guaranteed through systematic guidance and bi-weekly “sprint” sessions by the instructors as well as feedback loops from other students and international coaches. During the course, students will take on the role of agile innovation consultant, working with their team to solve specific, highly relevant business problems. In tight cooperation with our project partners (start-ups, scale-ups as well as established industrial companies), students will • develop a holistic understanding of important innovation challenges in the industrial sector Each team receives continuous assessment and feedback from the lecturers in bi-weekly sprint sessions. International experts and coaches specialized in agile project management as well as hypotheses-driven consulting provide additional support throughout the semester (e.g., Bosch Business Innovation – Stuttgart, Germany; Accenture – Vienna, AT; IPlytics, Patent Database Research – Berlin, Germany). |

Lernergebnisse (Learning Outcomes): | ||
The E&I course Industry & Innovation is an application-oriented project course. The course aims to deepen and extend the students' theoretical skills through practical application to a real case. After positive completion of E&I Industry & Innovation, students can
In addition, participants expand their soft skills (communication, presentation, project, and time management) by working with team members, coaches, and external partners. |

Regelung zur Anwesenheit: | ||
As the interaction with other students as well as external stakeholders is an integral part of this course, active participation in-person is important. Industry & Innovation consists of classes for all students and individual team coaching sessions. There will be a mid-term and a final presentation of the project. Except for the kick-off, all other dates shown are subject to change! More detailed information is provided at the introductory event and the kick-off. Most dates are either arranged individually with course instructors and project partners, or take place externally. This is not unusual for innovation projects. Exact dates for the presentations, workshops, and coachings will follow at the Kick-off. Information for E&I students taking a semester abroad that starts in June |

Teilnahmevoraussetzung(en): | ||
Students enrolled in the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Specialization Program. Please note that course registration is binding. The moment your registration is received, it is regarded as a clear commitment on your part. Students cannot transfer to another course (once the add/drop period is over) with no exceptions, as it would be unfair to other students (who might not have gotten into the course of their choice because of the spot you registered for). The number of students accepted to the course will only be expanded if there is no space in any other course 4/5. |
