Now Available in Swedish – Nine Innovation Roles Cards

De Nio InnovationsrollernaI am proud to announce the Swedish language design of my Nine Innovation Roles card deck, made possible by the translation efforts of Aseem Svedberg from Sweden.

Swedish speakers can read more about the Nine Innovation Roles in Swedish thanks to Aseem as well.

I am also excited that I have potential volunteers to translate this information for you in French and Modern Standard Arabic (so stay tuned).

Swedish joins Spanish to become the second non-English translation for the Nine Innovation Roles.

If you facilitate workshops and training sessions, you too can get a valuable new tool for your toolbox and help to take the Nine Innovation Roles global at the same time.

For interested service providers, there are only a few small requirements for becoming a Nine Innovation Roles training partner:

  1. Translate this page on my site (see Swedish example) – will publish and give translation credit with 1-2 links to first translator of each language
  2. Translate this article on Innovation Excellence – will publish and give translation credit with 1-2 links to first translator of each language
  3. #1 and #2 will allow me to get a translated version of the Nine Innovation Roles cards design created for you
  4. Translate the Nine Innovation Roles presentation embedded in #1 (can leverage #1)
  5. Translate the Nine Innovation Roles worksheet I link to in #1 (can leverage #1)

Free Public Innovation Keynotes in Wyoming

This week I will be giving two free innovation keynotes in Wyoming before heading off to Miami to do some client work.

Both Wyoming innovation sessions will have free admission and are open to the public.

Riverton Innovation Keynote Ad

If you live in Wyoming and you’ve already purchased a copy of my book Stoking Your Innovation Bonfire, I will be happy to sign or personalize it for you at either of these innovation events. Or if you have a copy of A Guide to Open Innovation and Crowdsourcing if you happen to have a copy of that.

I will be bringing some of my Nine Innovation Roles cards with me if you’d like to have a peek at those, and will probably have a few copies of my book with me if you’d like to purchase a personalized copy for only $25.

Jackson Hole Innovation Keynote Ad

The first keynote will be on June 5, 2013 in Riverton, Wyoming at 7 PM.

The second keynote will be on June 7, 2013 in Jackson Hole, Wyoming at 7 PM.

In addition to these public innovation keynotes I will also be conducting full-day innovation workshops for Central Wyoming College as part of their Innovation Institute.

If you’d like to do a similar combination of public innovation keynotes and full-day or half-day innovation executive education with me at your college or university, please contact me.
