About this measure

This measure demonstrates the impact of the Office of Innovation and Performance’s (I&P) efforts to foster a culture of innovation by showing the number of employees who have participated in innovation efforts each quarter. Data reported is provided by the Cuyahoga County Office of Innovation and Performance.
Why is this important?

Engaging employees through training, process improvement projects, performance management, and strategic plan implementation creates an environment where ideas, innovation, and creativity can flourish.
How are we making an impact?

Fostering a culture of innovation requires engaging employees in innovation efforts. I&P has begun this process through a number of initiatives. These include Lean Six Sigma Certification training (Champion, Yellow Belt, Green Belt), the launch of Cuyahoga Performance, conducting rapid improvement events with departments, and hosting an Innovation Conversation series providing lunch and learn trainings to employees.

Future priorities include:
  • Continued coordination of process improvement for County employees
  • Using Cuyahoga Performance as a framework to engage staff in ways to improve
  • Expanding the Innovation Conversation Series to provide more short trainings and discussions on innovation for employees
  • Engaging employees in process improvement projects
  • Creating a training video series for employees on innovation topics
