Innovation is generally considered a process that brings together various novel ideas in a way that they have an impact on society. It differs from invention in that innovation refers to the use of a better and, as a result, novel idea or method, whereas invention refers more directly to the creation of the idea or method itself. Innovation differs from improvement in that innovation refers to the notion of doing something different rather than doing the same thing better.

Why they ask this and what they are looking for:

This question "What areas would you like to further develop professionally?" will uncover whether you are interested and knowledgeable about your own development and as such will can be a cloaked attempt to discover your weaknesses.

A common target of the question is to discover how motivated you are to extend yourself. If you are motivated to learn, then you are probably more motivated to do the job well.

How to answer this:

First show that you are concerned and active about your own development. You can indicate how development has worked for your in the past.

You're right, continued learning and development is important and I continue to work to improve key skills.

Do answer the question, of course, but do not show gaping holes in your skill set and especially those in key areas required in the job. A good trick is to talk about developing your skills in new areas that will be of future benefit to the company.

For example : I am in programming now and love the work, but one day I would like to develop into a management role.

Hope this helps you..!

As a manager, the tough decisions I make involve layoffs. Before making those hard decisions, I always think particularly about what is best for my employees and the business. While I do not relish making those kinds of decisions, I do not shy away from this part of my job. Two years ago, I had to let some employees go due to the monetary climate. This was a tough decision that was ultimately necessary for the good of the organization and everyone working for the company.
