What sorts of skills do the newest generation of innovation managers need? What can educational institutions do to better prepare their graduates for innovation jobs? We are in danger of not having the talent required to move into the future, and companies are starting to feel the impact. This panel discussion will examine the required critical skill sets, where the skills can be found today, and how to address existing gaps.
