4. Question
Every company claims to be customer-focused.
Why do you think so few are able to pull it off?
Answer
Companies get skills-focused instead of
customer-needs focused.

5. Do all of innovations come from inside of the
firm, where we develop the new ideas
internally and execute them ourselves?
Or do we systems set up so that the ideas we
execute can come from anywhere, and some
of our own ideas end up being brought to
market by someone else?

10. The “discovery” model reflects what a
company is like in its start-up phase. In this
period management is likely to be relatively
informal, and even vague about how work
should get done and to what end.
Google began life using the discovery
model, and to some extent still does.

11. When pharmaceutical companies conduct clinical trials to test the
safety and efficacy of their drugs as part of the process for
obtaining regulatory approval, some patients receive the drug and
others some standard existing treatment or a sugar pill (placebo).
A comparison of the two sets of results tells us whether the drug
improves patients’ symptoms and has side effects.
Many potential changes in your organizations can be subjected to
a similar experiment: implement the change in some places,
but not in others, and compare performance in the two groups
to learn whether the change is effective.

15. The abductive logic is oriented
towards the future, what you
imagine may be possible.
To innovate, stop using the 2
words ”prove it”.

16. Research by Marius Usher shows that when
people made choices based only on instinct,
they made the right call up to 90% of the time.

19. Question
When it comes to innovation, what is the biggest
challenge that you see organizations facing?
Roger Martin
It is the dominance of analytical thinking which holds that unless
something can be proven by way of deductive or inductive logic,
it is not worthy of consideration or investment. No new idea in
the world has been proven before being tried. So as long as
analytical thinking is allowed to dominate, innovation is deeply
and profoundly challenged.
http://www.innovationexcellence.com/blog/2012/06/15/balancing-intuition-with-analysis/
20. The inductive and deductive logic
is based on the past experiences.
Focus is on proving things.

23. Industrial firms thrive on reducing variation
(manufacturing errors);
Creative firms thrive on increasing variation
(innovation).

24. To be creative To be efficient
Think outside the box. Stick to your knitting.
Explore what you don’t know. Exploit what you know.
Anticipate future customer needs. Meet current customer needs.
Allow freedom and flexibility. Demand accountability.
Avoid process and encourage
unstructured interaction.
Impose process and structure.
Govindarajan, Vijay & Trimble, Chris: 10 Rules for Strategic Innovators, p. 5.
27. Toyota implements a million new ideas a year, and most of
them come from ordinary workers. (Japanese companies get a
hundred times as many suggestions from their workers as U.S.
companies do.) Most of these ideas are small - making parts
on a shelf easier to reach, say - and not all of them work.
But cumulatively, every day, Toyota knows a little more, and
does things a little better, than it did the day before.

31. Santander went into partnership with Funding
Circle. The bank recognized that a segment of its
customer base wanted access to peer-to-peer
lending and acknowledged that it would be costly
to build a world-class offering from scratch.

32. Sharing information and expertise is a great
way to build trust with your competitors.

36. Executives at organizations that are experimenting with more
participatory modes of strategy development cite two major benefits:
Benefit # 1
Improving the quality of strategy by pulling in diverse and detailed
frontline perspectives that are typically overlooked but can make the
resulting plans more insightful and actionable.
Benefit # 2
The second is building enthusiasm and alignment behind a company’s
strategic direction.

39. Wal-Mart stores established its digital
business away from corporate headquarters
to allow a new culture and new skills to grow.

40. In the long run, internal competition
causes every participant to lose.
When leaders look for ways to encourage
cooperation and generate common goals,
they become more successful.

45. Adapting is preferable when key sources of
value creation are relatively stable or
outside the company’s control.
https://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/Strategy/Strategic_Thinking/Making_the_most_of_uncertainty_1128
46. To put things simply, when it faces very high
levels of uncertainty about variables it
can influence, shaping makes most sense.
https://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/Strategy/Strategic_Thinking/Making_the_most_of_uncertainty_1128
47. A shaping strategy is best in unpredictable
environments that you have the power to change.
In new or young high-growth industries where barriers to
entry are low, innovation rates are high, demand is very hard
to predict, and the relative positions of competitors are in flux,
a company can often radically shift the course of industry
development through some innovative move.
http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2012/09/know_which_strategy_style_is.html
48. A shaping strategy embraces short
or continual planning cycles.
Flexibility is paramount, little reliance is placed
on elaborate prediction mechanisms, and the
strategy is most commonly implemented as a
portfolio of experiments.
