Innovation programme for SMB

In our innovation program for SMEs, we have received clear feedback that one of the most useful modules was involving innovation. Here, together with the companies, we have analyzed which players have the greatest value in including - it can be employees, customers, suppliers, the board or someone completely different. Once the companies had chosen who they would prioritize, we prepared clear structures for the work by defining clear goals and activities that could be implemented. The conclusion? It's amazing how much value you can get with even fairly small grips.

Managing innovation at sustainable health

Several African countries have major challenges in achieving the sustainability goals and face complex challenges in the form of rapid demographic shifts, high levels of poverty, large refugee populations, climate change and institutional and state instability. Together with Karolinska Institutet (Sweden) and Makerere University (Uganda), we have developed and delivered a digital skills development program for leaders from the health sector in the GDR Congo, Somalia and Uganda. The aim of the program is to increase participants' competence to work more strategically, innovatively and cross-sectorally to increase access to health services in vulnerable contexts. The program is divided into three modules where Tinkr has developed and implemented the one that deals with innovation and management for innovation. The program is part of the virtual Center of Excellence for Sustainable Health (CESH) where Tinkr is a partner: https://cesh.health/

Stad Municipality

When Eid and Selje municipality merged and became Stad, innovation and co-creation were a priority area to ensure sustainable social development. Tinkr has contributed to several innovation projects within, among other things, political organization, meaningful and active life for young people as well as health and care. At the beginning of 2020, they wanted to take the next step. By establishing an interdisciplinary innovation team, they were able to combine the implementation of innovation projects with the development of innovation competence in the organization. During 9 months and 9 sessions, the participants have worked on innovation projects that have given them practical training in the innovation process. We have combined key methods and tools for effective innovation with the development of an innovation team that has delivered concrete value through the projects.

We carry out comprehensive competence programmes

If you really want to build competence on innovation in the organization, the combination of professional complement, collaboration and tasks that provide actual value is very good. Especially if you have some duration on the program.

Coca Cola Beverages Africa

Coca-Cola Beverages Africa is one of Uganda's largest employers, and has a clear focus on innovation. They selected 20 of their most motivated employees and during 6 months, 4 two-day sessions and work between sessions, we developed together with the management team a dedicated, knowledgeable and insanely inspiring team of "innovation champions". Through the program, they got to work practically with the innovation process and organizational development. They also received concrete tools, knowledge replenishment and outside inspiration. One of the results was that CCBA designed a structured innovation process to take ideas for tested solutions. They also received far more ideas with higher quality from the entire organization. It was fantastic to hear what the participants had learned and the improvement suggestions they presented to the management.

Transport division TFFK

We have worked with the transport division in the county municipalities in Finnmark / Troms and Finnmark for many years, and after they had put in place a strategy, a good culture and good structures, we saw that there was a need for a separate team that could work with this. All departments selected one person for the innovation team and we worked with them to put in place a clear mandate, good structures and necessary expertise. It is fun to see how even those who were a little unsure of the value of this work at first got an unexpected glow and commitment to innovation.
