Mastery of Business Innovation / ex CINO
The Chief Innovation Officer’s role is crucial in larger firms and helps manage, coordinate, and orchestrate innovation efforts.
The world is changing faster and faster, accelerated by the COVID -19 situation. Accelerate the transformation of your business or you will be accelerated into becoming an obsolete supplier in your markets. Effective innovation does not happen by chance – it should be built systematically!
Innovation therefore becomes the top priority for companies that want to secure/increase their revenues and prevent the decline of demand for their products and services in the market! Mastering Business Innovation (MBI) is about the mindset and concepts that drive innovation throughout the organization, beyond the traditional boundaries. You should actively explore the company’s new uncertain territories and options by leveraging innovation intelligence, experimentation, and ideation. In other words, you need to orchestrate all elements of the management system so that discovery, incubation, and acceleration are aligned for future success.
Upon completion of the MBI – Mastery of Business Innovation Certification Program (formerly called CINO), participants will have the skills and tools necessary to execute the various innovation activities to achieve desired business outcomes with maximum confidence and efficiency.
The 10+ modules of the MBI program include:
- Where to start? Innovation strategy + culture.
- What are the foundations of successful innovation? Leadership + innovation.
- What are your options? 10x innovation.
- How to come up with promising ideas? Ideas + concepts.

What the participants said:
“I liked the relaxed atmosphere and direct communication between the group and the facilitators, who were always available to us and ready to answer our questions. They really are a team that exemplifies agility and commitment to their mission, which is also ours.” – Darja Ferčelj Temeljotov, Lek, strategic programs
“The main thing I gained, by attending the Certification program, is a new thinking framework. And with that also new tools, methods, and ways of work development that will accelerate our development efforts and provide us with a bright future.” – Boštjan Veber, Akrapovič, research
“I started using Kanban and Note & vote at my work before we even finished the Certification. Five-day SPRINT switched the whole team to 6th gear and showed us how we can innovate, test and prepare prototypes quickly and efficiently. Enabling, proofing, repetitive prototype making and quick learning will lead me in the future, and the basis for this is of course falling in love with the challenges.” – Larisa Potokar, Telekom Slovenije, CINO
“When we get our hands on the right approaches and tools – as in this program – introducing innovations and changes becomes a challenge. And solving the challenge with people and for people then becomes a pleasure. To live with changes and at the same time enjoy it? Why not?” – Zlatko Pflaum, Lek, project management
