Contributive Leadership in Action

Features of an organisation that support innovation

• Staff from a variety of disciplines working together

• Mechanisms for introducing new ideas• Involving staff in programs from other agencies• Internal mechanisms to distribute ideas and

proposals (formal and informal)• “shedding of responsibility” ie they are

everyone's responsibility• Most communication about ideas is advice and

information not instructions & decisions

Aitken and Hage (1969)

ASMS the next 10 years

Serious play

The ASMS innovation space.

Give the technology to the students and stand back. Let them play, experiment, fail and try again.

Support students who come up with ideas.

Suspend teaching as telling, ask questions instead.
