Idea to Value

SEPTEMBER 4, 2024

Many startups and innovators struggle to sell their products once they launch. Often, this is because while they love the idea for the product they have come up with, it is not actually solving a problem which the user perceives in their own lives. But how is it possible that intelligent, hardworking teams can make such glaring errors? Especially when they themselves can list all of the real, tangible benefits that their innovative solution brings?

The biggest misconception about change is that once people understand it, they will embrace it. That’s almost never true. If you intend to influence an entire organization— or even an entire society—you have to assume the deck is stacked against you. The status quo has had years—and sometimes decades or longer—to build connections and form networks.

In the fast-paced and competitive world of business, innovation is not just a luxury; it’s a necessity. Companies must continually evolve to meet the ever-changing needs of their customers, outpace competitors, and adapt to new market dynamics. One powerful method I use for generating innovative ideas is called Tri-Force Ideation. It involves focusing on three key elements: Strengths, Values, and Assumptions.

It’s tough to imagine how anyone who is familiar with the evidence would ever assume that change is linear, that it is a good idea to “create a sense of urgency around change,” or that you should move quickly to publicize an early win. Yet, more often than not, that’s what otherwise smart, accomplished people set out to do. There are a few reasons that this is the case.

To ensure you’re creating opportunities even when you’re feeling depleted or overwhelmed, try these five strategies: 1) Challenge your beliefs about your capacity; 2) Start with topics that solve urgent problems; 3) Don’t limit yourself to formal programs; 4) Make an emotional connection to learning; and 5) Work with your brain, not against it.

Most of the time, we operate with a manager mindset and that works fine. We build consensus and execute with predictable outcomes. Our colleagues are motivated, customers are satisfied and everybody is happy. In an era of disruption, however, it’s only a matter of time until we need to adapt and drive transformation. That’s never easy. To pull it off we need to shift from a manager mindset to a changemaker mindset in which we no longer assume an environment of predictability but explore unknowns

Back in the Gilded Age of the 19th century, it was taken for granted that industrialists were all powerful. Men met in smoke-filled back rooms, traded information and, much like Adam Smith described, conspired against the public to raise prices and increase profits. Eventually, the public could bear no more, political pressure built, and legislation was passed to prevent collusive and predatory behavior.

Over the past two centuries, we have seen echoes of the same pattern first established in the late 18th century: a wave of new ideas is resisted by the dominant powers, as tensions build below the surface and eventually explode. Sometimes order holds and sometimes it gives way to a period of chaos and destruction before, eventually, finding some sort of homeostasis.
