Innovation and Knowledge European Management's Agents

The main aim of the project was the adaptation and transference of the profile "Innovation Agent" through the development of innovative eLearning contents with 2 direct objectives: to convert the profile in a multimedia training tool for trainers to export good results achieved in the previous project (an earlier pilot project called “Innovation Managers” focused in women labour insertion and innovation in SMEs) and, to foster innovation in the organizations as the main tool to facilitate sustainability, LLL and adaptation to nowadays changes at the European level, which is a priority in Europe as it is written in Lisbon Strategy. Through the project we adapted the profile and analysed the suitability of the supporting tool named Learning Organizations to be used as a multimedia/multilingual tool for the profile, aiming to facilitate its wider dissemination and exploitation. The tool has been tested by a group of female trainees (which are highly underrepresented in the innovation sector and in the labour market) -and validated according to the testing procedure scheduled for the project, in which final users, experts and PYMEs participated- also in order to be transferred afterwards through the different European networks in which partners are involved. This testing stage was defined to choose women representing different sectors in each partner country to test the pilot training in all sectors and to foster exchange and networking between private sector, public sector and universities; being supported by an European social platform 2.0 to facilitate the aforementioned exchange among the participants at the European level.Target: Women, in priority, coming from different sectors: they have been the target of the pilot training and testing, but also the public/private organizations and Universities were a crucial target group, as the profile and the multimedia tools have been defined to encourage innovation in 5 strategic areas for the business sector: New Technologies and Communication, Strategic Management, People Management, Knowledge Management and Corporate Social Responsibility. The first 4 measured the available level of innovation at enterprises, whereas the 5th area was designed to measure the relationship of companies with the territory where they are set, thinking on the effects of their economic activity on the environment. The creation of a powerful and efficient multi-stakeholder network was also boosted to make the project sustainable.
