    input - "Organization Change" •  Organization change is the adaptation of an organization to meet the needs of its changing customer base, social trends, etc. •  Organizations are forced to change to keep up with the rest of the world. •  This sometimes involved rethinking the way they operate and do business. •  When this happens, the same people cannot keep doing the same task over and over as their jobs might have evolved. •  These changes are not easy and the challenge for leaders is to change their organization but keep its value clear. •  Change in the basic ideas of the organization, as well as adapting to the changing environment Organization change is any change that affects the regular operation or culture of an organization. •  That can include position changes, implementation of new procedures, or shift in operational focus. •  Being willing to be dynamic and accept market changes by revising strategies and not staying comfortable. •  Introducing TRUST into the organization. •  Changing structure to fit function
  5. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 20148 Student Pre -Seminar

    input How -can organizations manage stress? •  Introduce TRUST, where colleagues feel comfortable in their work environments. •  Innovation incentives - gives the employees the opportunity to work on what they think is right •  constant open communication. Due to the fact that things are always changing, deadlines can easily be missed, work changed, and people put in positions where they lack knowledge, skills, or expertise. •  Instead of trying to figure things out as individuals and worrying about failure, it's important that organizations promote the vocalization of issues collaboratively •  You often need to have a leader to follow, someone that will guide you in this change. •  Instead, what is best to do is to have everyone attend an introduction session on the new program and teach the program in depth to one one of two workers which were chosen by management to guide and help their fellow coworkers when they have question. •  Organizations can ensure that their deadlines and expectations do not exceed the capabilities of the working staff. Leaders attending to the needs of the team. •  Ensuring that everyone is informed of objectives and goals. Try to strengthen the relationships between the various levels of the organization. •  This can be done by introducing sports activities and inter murals within the company/ organization Always foster a creative progressive work environment. •  Allowing for work at home if needed, and work activities such as exercise programs. •  When in doubt look at companies which are thriving – best practices (google)

  7. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 201412 7 Critical Elements

    in Applying Innovation AI ELEMENTS: 4) Organization: Organizational structure must be adjusted correspondingly according to the demands of innovation including new business processes, and workflow. 5) Culture: Changes in mind set and culture is the prerequisites to carry out all innovation. In Google for instance there is a strong innovative culture to encourage innovation and tolerating failures. 6) People Systems: System innovation means the innovation of rules and regulations about enterprise’s routine, performance evaluating, staff rewards and punishments, salary system, training and promotion and so on.
  8. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 201415 4 Classifications of

    Technology •  Emerging Technology – Technologies that are not widely known e.g. bio-chips •  Pacing Technology - have the potential to change the entire basis of competition, but have not yet been embodied in a product or process •  Key Technology - currently yielding competitive advantage •  Base Technology - although necessary and essential to practice, offer little competitive advantage

    & Innovation? They are symbiotic but not the same……..

  11. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 201420 V Types of

    Innovation Impact • Incremental innovation: Improvements within a given frame of solutions (“doing better what we already do”); • Disruptive Innovation: (“doing what we already do in new spaces”) • Radical innovation: A change of frame (“doing what we did not do before”).

  15. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 201426 Examples of Disruptive

    Innovations Here are some examples pulled together from Clayton Christensen’s work and elsewhere: •  The Personal computer: When first introduced, the PC did not provide the computational power or speed of existing mainframe or minicomputers. The PC created completely new segments of computer users such as home users, small office home office (SOHO) users, and students. •  Low-cost airlines: When they started, low-cost airlines like Southwest did not provide many of the features that business customers expected like fixed seating, first class, meals on-board, or interline connections to other flights. Southwest, in particular, created a new market of short-haul air travelers by offering a service that competed with travelling by road. •  Table-top copiers: First introduced by Japanese companies Ricoh and Canon, table-top photocopiers were much slower and offered less flexibility than the large copiers being sold by Xerox. But, these sleek copiers met the limited needs of individual managers or departments in corporations to get a few quick copies made to meet immediate needs. •  Microfinance: This social innovation does not have all the sophistication of a traditional banking product but meets the financial needs of people who were traditionally outside the purview of the banking system. •  Online education: While online classes sacrifice some of the rich discussions possible in a face-to-face classroom setting, they offer an opportunity for people who can’t spare the time to attend classes to educate themselves. With cheaper bandwidth and improvements in technology, they have the potential to displace classroom teaching in several contexts.
  16. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 201427 Drivers of Innovation:

    Market Pull - R&D Push •  Market pull !  looking for the best way of satisfying a newly emerging customer demand !  Improvement of the existing products, extension of the existing offer or decrease of price !  Impulses for continuous, incremental product innovations or for process innovations •  Research and Development Push !  looking for commercial use of new impulses resulting from the R&D results !  Generating new markets for conceptually different products
  17. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 201428 Drivers of Innovation

    - Open Innovation ! Open Innovation is an intentional course of action for identifying and exploiting internal and external novel initiatives in order to develop new products and services. ! It involves multi-stage collaboration with other entities outside a firm, in order to value capture and optimize the standard and value of the final product.
  18. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 201430 Joseph Schumpeter -

    – Creative Destruction In the Theory of Economic Development 1934, Joseph Schumpeter defined economic innovation as: 1. The introduction of a new good, or of a new quality of a good 2. The introduction of a new method of production, which does not need to be founded on new scientific discoveries, but can exist in a new way of commercially handling a commodity 3. The opening of a new market into which a particular manufacturer has not previously entered, whether or not this market has existed before The Economic Conception of Innovation
  19. Copyright © AMGI 2014 31st March2 201431 Joseph Schumpeter –

    Creative Destruction In the Theory of Economic Development 1934, Joseph Schumpeter defined economic innovation as: 4. The securing of a new source of supply of raw materials or half manufactured goods, irrespective of whether this source already exists or whether it has first to be created. 5. The creation of a new organization in an industry, or a new monopoly position through trustification (monopolistic system – Oil) The Economic Conception of Innovation
