This project involves conducting a study to foster innovation within the SLC General Secretariat, marking a crucial and strategic step towards achieving institutional excellence and enhancing overall performance. The study aims to assess the current landscape and identify the opportunities and challenges related to incorporating innovation within the various sections and organisational units of the SLC. The study focuses on analysing several key aspects, including technological infrastructure, organisational culture, internal policies and procedures, as well as the level of innovation skills and capabilities of employees. This in-depth analysis helps identify the necessary requirements and develop an effective plan to foster and promote innovation as an integral part of daily operations. Additionally, the study suggests specific recommendations, including the launch of initiatives and programmes aimed at enhancing the creative and innovative abilities of employees, and updating policies to foster innovative ideas and initiatives, contributing to the development of services and processes. Strengthening a system that rewards innovative employees and supports successful innovations is imperative. Furthermore, the study underscores the importance of adopting ongoing assessment tools to monitor the progress and success of implemented innovation strategies, while ensuring that the necessary resources are available for their sustainability.
The anticipated outcomes of this study include positioning the SLC General Secretariat among leading innovative institutions that adopt and effectively apply best practices. Ultimately, this will help achieve its vision and strategic goals while enhancing its reputation as a model government entity that keeps pace with contemporary aspirations and challenges.
