Learn to find and break constraints in your organization to innovate and deliver on the mission—even in environments shaped by budget limits, shifting priorities, and rapid change.
Lead government innovation with skills to detect change early, overcome constraints, and harness AI's power—turn disruption into mission-driven success.
Government organizations don’t have the luxury of standing still. Missions change. Budgets shrink. New technologies emerge. In this course, you’ll explore how successful agencies overcome constraints—legal, structural, cultural, and technological—to drive meaningful innovation.
Michael Raynor, co-author of The Innovator’s Solution and author of The Three Rules, partners with John Johnson, UMD’s Lead Faculty in Agile and Product Management, to reveal how public sector leaders can sense change early, organize for innovation, and deliver results that matter.
Through real-world case studies—from software factories and health exchanges to drone warfare and cloud disruption—you’ll examine how government organizations adapt and thrive in the face of disruption, and how AI is amplifying both the challenges and the opportunities.
This course is designed for anyone working in or with government who wants to lead change, not just react to it.
I'm passionate about what works as both scientific principles and best practices in project and product management. Teaching is leading leaders, so my first goal is to engage with compelling reasons to change their thinking. Our shared goal is to empower their teams to delight customers while also serving the organization and society that supports them.
For more than 25 years as a consultant and researcher, I have grappled with the twinned challenges of innovation and uncertainty.
