3. Instead of working in separate departments, like
most large corporations, the 80,000 employees
working for http://www.haier.net/ work in about
2000 fluid teams.
Any employee can propose an idea and if it is voted
a winner then that person becomes the team
leader. The team manages itself and is responsible
for the profit or loss of the project.

6. Define 1 product or 1 service.
Then create a multidisciplinary team of about 7 people.
This team will have total control of everything they do. It is
completely autonomous and self sufficient. There is zero
interruption and interference from the remaining company.
The team works like a start-up.
The goal of the team is to create a winning product / a
winning service. The team is responsible for its results.

10. Hewlett-Packard’s laser-printer division in Boise, Idaho, was
hugely successful, enjoying high margins and a reputation for
superior product quality. Unfortunately, its ink-jet project,
which represented a disruptive innovation, languished inside
the mainstream HP printer business. Although the processes
for developing the two types of printers were basically the
same, there was a difference in values.
It was not until HP’s managers decided to transfer the unit to a
separate division in Vancouver, British Columbia, with the goal
of competing head-to-head with its own laser business, that
the ink-jet business finally became successful.

11. Once the acquisition’s managers are forced to adopt
the buyer’s way of doing business, its capabilities will
disappear.
A better strategy is to let the [acquired] business
stand alone and to infuse the parent’s resources into
the acquired company’s processes and values. This
approach truly constitutes the acquisition of new
capabilities.

13. Increasingly, coordination will come from lateral
communication and social networks where peers
across the organization can discover for themselves
where coordination needs to happen, where we
need to be working together and then solve those
problems.
