<p>Innovation is critical for higher education in the 21st century. It can improve teaching and learning, increase research quality and impact, solve social problems, and bring more funding and collaboration. It can also boost the happiness and creativity of staff and students, who can follow their interests, try new things, and work with different people. But innovation is not simple. It requires a positive and supportive culture, a clear and shared vision, a strong and effective leadership, and a regular and systematic evaluation. This seeks to review the existing research on innovation in higher education, analyze and discuss how academic leaders can encourage and enable innovation in higher education, and to further provide some helpful and evidence-based suggestions for academic leaders and practitioners who want to innovate in higher education.</p>

“…Thus, although it may be driven by technological factors, labor market trends, or student demands, educational innovation is often argued as a response to social needs (Khaskheli, 2023). In this sense, there is an increasing demand to drive educational innovation processes in institutions to respond adequately and agilely to the challenges they face, such as the COVID-19 pandemic (Sultan, 2023). Although the process of generating innovative ideas may vary, the aim is to have tools that can be adapted to academicians' and designers' specific contexts and objectives (Deboever et al, 2022;Portuguez-Castro & Gómez-Zermeño, 2020).…”

This article aims to show the results of implementing a training methodology in a group of participants within an intensive course on educational innovation. The motivation for this course was to promote innovative ideas that could be scaled into possible open educational entrepreneurship projects. Based on descriptive statistical analysis, that included a multivariate statistical analysis, an analysis of means and nonparametric tests of the data comparison of medians and ranges and Spearman's correlation, this article considered the SEL4C methodology, which was intended to support the ideation process and develop the participants' perceived achievement of social entrepreneurship and complex thinking competencies. The proposed methodology was validated to develop social innovation ideas even in a limited time and improved the participants' perception of achieving both competencies. This article contributes to the validation studies of this methodology and the academic approaches that seek efficient tools for acquiring and developing transdisciplinary competencies.

This study investigates the determinants of firms' job‐cut decisions during the COVID‐19 pandemic, considering both firm‐level and country‐level factors. Data from 31 countries (a mix of developed and emerging) collected between May 2020 and May 2021 are analyzed using a multilevel Zero‐Inflated Negative Binomial (ZINB) model. The results reveal that firms that were operational, larger in size, received financial incentives, and arranged remote work for their workforce laid off a smaller proportion of workers. Conversely, firms that experienced significant sales reductions, input supply disruptions, and introduced delivery or carry‐out services laid off a larger proportion of workers. Moreover, among financial incentive‐recipient firms, smaller ones and those that introduced remote work and delivery or carry‐out services had smaller layoffs. At the country level, the human capital index (HCI) significantly influenced job‐cut decisions, with higher HCI scores associated with smaller layoffs. Classifying countries into “developed” and “emerging” yielded similar results, except for temporary closure having no significant impact on job cuts in developed countries and remote work showing no impact on job cuts in emerging countries. The robustness of the results was confirmed by a multilevel zero‐inflated Tobit model, which consistently reproduced the outcomes.
