Dr Russell Manfield

I have an engineering background, earning my mechanical engineering degree from UQ and beginning my career in the mining and telecommunication sectors, before starting new ventures in technology, agri-tech & workplace training domains. I leverage this background in my teaching for courses covering entrepreneurship, innovation and strategy. I have built online courses covering corporate innovation, service innovation culture, innovation strategy for quantum technology and navigating the demands of 21st century workskills: some purposed towards scale (attracting large learner enrolments) and others towards geographic dispersion (gaining access to learners who I would never come into contact with). I have a particular interest in the impact strategies for new ventures & new technologies to craft sustainable value frameworks, so welcome entrepreneurial research opportunities that target emerging economies, fast-evolving technology domains and design thinking pedagogy for new generations of innovators.
