As organizations expand globally, dispersing R&D teams across national borders introduces real challenges—restrictive immigration policies, fragmented collaboration, and inconsistent innovation performance. This course examines how R&D dispersion affects innovation teams and introduces four strategies for maintaining excellence across national boundaries: immigration arbitrage, modularization, flexible orchestration, and regional ecosystem integration.
Explore how each approach addresses specific barriers to global talent acquisition, and learn how rethinking innovation processes can improve team performance in a distributed environment. By the end of this course, you’ll be equipped with a practical framework to build and sustain high-performing innovation teams across borders.
