Innovation Gym is a platform founded by Achilleas Kentonis (Engineer / innovation trainer / trans-disciplinary Artist) in 2012. Innovation Gym aims to create a critical mass of thinkers/innovators who can design and implement, feasible and innovative products, services or processes within the agile and competitive environments we live today. “Navigating through brain capabilities, we inspire business and social organizations to cultivate and strengthen their teams’ thinking process by empowering the untapped innovative mindset,leading to a real business impact for the benefit of the individual, the organization and the world.”Innovation Gym's mentoring Services focuses on: Employing unconventional tactics for getting groundbreaking ideas which are the basis of innovation and design thinking. Choosing the right technology options to support this thinking process is key to implementing and sustaining pioneering ideas. Creating robust strategies for safeguarding that these pioneering ideas flourish. Leading teams effectively by aiming to bring out the best individual qualities of everyone participating in a team. It’s about engaging all team members in sharing the same vision and aligning people towards the same goals. Change, an integral part of every organization’s development. It is also a process that needs to be effectively managed to ensure that desired transitions are reinforced successfully as there is no such thing as instant change. The disciplines and methods were chosen for implementing a project coupled with the right thinking skills that determine the project’s success. Project management is about robust methodology and the ability to engage and motivate a team to own the project and see it through successfully.
