S3E14 How to get #Management buy-in for #Innovation with guest Gijsbertus J.J. van Wulfen

Welcome to The ARB show, a #podcast that sparks meaningful conversations with guests from diverse backgrounds, all aimed at adding value to your #professional life.

#Innovation rarely succeeds on great ideas alone—it requires visible and sustained management buy-in to truly take root. When leaders actively champion new #initiatives, they provide the #strategic alignment, resources, and cultural support that teams need to experiment, take smart risks, and scale what works. Management backing signals that innovation is not a side project but a priority, helping overcome resistance, secure funding, and maintain momentum when challenges arise. Without that commitment from the top, even the most promising ideas can stall before they have the chance to make an impact.

Our Guest Gijs is here to help. He is the founder of FORTH Innovation Institute and an award-winning global keynote speaker on innovation.

As an empathic storyteller with 40 years of innovation experience across the world, he inspires you with his speeches, workshops, and innovation methods in a practical way, delivering quick wins and changing mindsets, leading to long-term change in your organization.

He is a LinkedIn Influencer, and Thinkers360 named him the Number One Global Thought Leader in Design Thinking for 2024. His book ‘The Innovation Maze’ was crowned as Management Book of the Year
