The internet is full of blog posts with productivity tips and advice about how to work smarter, not harder. There’s a lot of useful information about the best way to work, but we think it is important to keep in mind that the foundation for all of it is something called standard work. We've written about standard work in the past, but it is a subject that is often overlooked or misunderstood in the continuous improvement efforts of many organizations, so it's definitely worth spending some time

Outshining the competition and generating disruptive ideation are worthy objectives, but they shouldn’t be your only objectives. If you plan to take your products global or expand your global reach, reverse innovation must be a priority.

Image adapted from Imaginary Forces for this post. What an utterly strange year, 2022 has been. we have been confronted, reflective and seemingly having to “kick start” our lives again after the challenges of living through the impacts of a global pandemic. We go into 2023 far more in personal and business conflict. We do need to find a new way of working. it is not throwing away the technology, tools or established processes it is transforming these in new and different ways.

There's a famous quote about tools we use, which says that we first shape our tools, and then they shape us. Meaning, I think, that we are natural creators, meant to solve problems, to create new things. When we create new things, they become valuable and in demand, and to a great extent, at least initially, unattainable until produced in mass quantities.

Many things can feel outside of our control or reach. For instance, a person can ask for a raise or promotion, but whether they receive the advancement is not a decision they directly get to make and is ultimately beyond their control. A person can also get stuck in traffic because they have no control over other people’s driving habits or because an accident happened farther down the road.

The need for transformational innovation. Transformational innovation is increasingly needed to cope with the change needed in many organizations to find a new or repositioned value proposition. Transformational innovation is one of the hardest, if not the hardest, to achieve. When you are required to become (really) different at the core, you face the inherent conflict that making change is where clear leadership can only bring about, guiding the changes required through this highly disruptive

Despite hosting 27 UN Climate Change Conferences over the past three decades, UN chief, Antonio Guterres remarked in November, 2022 that the world is on a “highway to climate hell.” It’s no surprise that Guterres is calling for a “no nonsense” summit in 2023. Unfortunately, the call will not only fall on deaf ears, but it is unlikely to succeed. First, the United Nations wields little power over member nations because it receives most of its funding from its members, with the United States as th

Most innovation work proceeds independently from company strategy. As a result, the products that arrive in the market are not well aligned with the company’s goals. This challenge is particularly significant in organizations with transformation-oriented strategies, where innovation must directly support growth, scalability, and strategic pivots.

While this article will focus on finding and resolving the root causes of business problems, cause analysis is something we apply to common problems in all areas of life. For example, if your car doesn’t start, you have a few options. You might take a bus to work instead or ask a friend to give you a lift. This solves the immediate problem of getting to work but leaves you with a long-term transportation challenge.
