The course covers the important aspects of the innovation cycle and shares practical examples on how to implement them.
I liked how it is made in a condensed view to give me what I need to know rather quickly and to the point.
Great content and well presented.
I completed this over 2 days during the festive holidays. What I loved:
On-demand (great accessibility!)
Condensed learning – this was faster than reading a book but equally great in delivered content….
Associate Professor at the School of Economic Sciences and Organizations
Pedro Marques Quinteiro
Pedro Marques-Quinteiro holds a master’s in human resources, work, and organizational psychology from the University of Lisbon, and a PhD in human resources management and development from ISCTE- Lisbon University Institute. He is an Associate Professor at the School of Economic Sciences and Organizations (ECEO, Universidade Lusófona). During the last decade, Pedro has worked with business companies, fire departments, polar programs, and expeditioners to enable human performance under extreme circumstances. Pedro’s research focus in the field of leadership and teamwork in extreme environments and small groups as complex adaptive systems. He is currently involved research projects supported by the Portuguese Polar Program, the Portuguese Space Agency, and the European Space Agency. In this context, he has already led two scientific expeditions to King George Island (Antarctica) and was the Medical & Safety Officer of CAMões’s Crew 0, the first Portuguese space analogue mission in history.
If you are serious about innovation,
don’t miss this opportunity
No, the course is entirely on-demand and consists of video-recorded lessons that can be accessed from any device and at any time from the students’ personal dashboard. However, online meetings are organized throughout the year (for members only) for Q&A sessions with speakers and experts in the field.
Pedro, an Associate Professor at the School of Economic Sciences and Organizations (ECEO, Universidade Lusófona), has spent the past ten years collaborating with various entities such as businesses, fire departments, polar programs, and expedition teams. His primary focus revolves around enhancing human performance in challengig environments. Pedro’s research centers on leadership, teamwork dynamics, and the intricacies of small groups functioning as complex adaptive systems. Presently, he is actively engaged in research initiatives supported by the Portuguese Polar Program, the Portuguese Space Agency, and the European Space Agency. Notably, Pedro has overseen two scientific expeditions to King George Island in Antarctica and served as the Medical & Safety Officer for CAMões’s Crew 0, marking Portugal’s inaugural space analogue mission.
This course not only equips individuals with specialized skills sought after in aerospace psychology, human factors research, and space agency programs but also opens doors to a spectrum of cutting-edge career pathways. Understanding the psychological factors of space exploration is pivotal for future job opportunities, facilitating roles in astronaut selection, training, and support to ensure optimal mental well-being during extended missions. Beyond space endeavors, these acquired insights will be highly valuable in healthcare, team management, and crisis response fields on Earth, positioning individuals at the forefront of impactful and rewarding career trajectories in an evolving job landscape.
