Welcome to the Digital Innovation Ascent High Camps!
Building on the Digital Innovation Ascent Basecamp learning journey, we offer additional immersive training formats, called 'High Camps' that allow you to deep-dive and personalise your learning journey. We have three formats on offer that will stretch your mindset and build up your skillset as you get hands-on with digital innovation topics, together with other innovation leaders in the Lufthansa group. Join us in our Hub in Berlin, to get out of business-as-usual, and into a dynamic learning and working environment.
The High Camps are advanced-level, 'extreme altitude' innovation sessions that combine theory, practice and reflection. Be prepared to roll up your sleeves and get hands-on while you experiment and explore together with your peers.
Is this for me? The Digital Innovation Ascent formats are for Lufthansa Group leaders. Participants do not need to have completed the Basecamp journey, nor work within the formal context of ‘digital innovation’, but should be interested in exploring how to use the concepts and methods for their respective business area.
We are offering the following High Camps in 2024:

In this training we will hone in on the factors influencing innovation culture – not least the crucial role that is played by leadership. As a leader, fostering a creative ‘idea culture' means encouraging experimentation and thus tolerating failure. “Innovative cultures are paradoxical” (HBR, 2019). More desirable innovation factors such as collaboration, trust and psychological safety are counterbalanced and under tightrope pressure of less ‘fun’ aspects such as candour, discipline, and accountability. As a result, innovation cultures can be difficult to create and sustain. So how can you lead creative collaboration to increase the innovation capacity of your team? What rituals and frameworks can you as a leader provide your team to ignite passion for creativity and a strong team ethos? And which creative processes can you embrace in order to strengthen your team?
What will you take away?
Understand what makes organizations and teams innovative, including the underlying prerequisites for an innovative work environment (e.g. experimentation, failure-positive mindset)
A set of tools and methodologies which you can take back to your teams for purposeful and structured collaboration, in which team members can contribute
Reflection on your own personal leadership style. Define your personal 'northstar' for the type of innovative leader you want to be
The topics that will be covered during the High Camp are:
Looking at best-practice examples of German and international companies, as well as leaders that create and sustain thriving innovation cultures
Creating awareness and evaluation of your personal leadership style and impact
Rules of Engagement: How to motivate your team in the face of adversity, and walk the tightrope of innovation paradoxes
Building on the Hypothesis-led thinking module within the Basecamp, participants will learn how to support and coach their teams to design suitable experiments for their hypotheses
Format
The program takes place in a blended learning approach including:
a virtual onboarding session
a 1-day in-person training in Berlin
Post-training workbook with on-demand digital learning modules.
Following the learning journey, you have the opportunity to book optional follow-up individual coaching sessions* with LIH innovation coaches to evaluate your team’s progress and consider future steps.
