EXERCISE   #1:



“What is it that
 designers do?”
Business needs
design now, more
than ever.
“
Design, in short, is becoming an ever more
important engine of corporate profit: It's
no longer enough simply to outperform the
competition; to thrive in a world of
ceaseless and rapid change, businesspeople
have to outimagine the competition as well.
They must begin to think – to become –
more like designers.

-Roger Martin, dean of the Rotman B-school

ANSWER #1:


the limits of efficiencies.
New sources of competitive advantage:

                     1960s & 1970s
  Making things cheaper
  Advantage from Cost Division of labor, MTS,
              mass production


                     1980s & 1990s
     Making things better
 Advantages from Quality and Speed Lean, JIT,
      exible specialization, automation


                             2000s
     Making better things
 Advantages from Aesthetics and Authenticity,
       Design, innovation, uniqueness

The long term winners in complex
ecologies are those that fit with an
environment, compete within a
context of cooperation, and
create systems that become
increasingly complex while
remaining extremely flexible.
“
...we must understand that businesses are complex systems;
each is composed of myriad independent quot;partsquot; (employees,
information systems, teams, customers, partners, and so on)
that work together to meet business goals. What makes them
complex is their endless variety of parts (e.g., no two
employees are the same) and the sophisticated web of
relationships they make up.

This inherent complexity makes the behavior of the business
largely unpredictable, and generally uncontrollable by those
relatively few parts in leadership positions (just as ant colonies
or bee swarms are not controlled by their respective queens).

“Wait, are we talking about
business or biology?”
“
My countless conversations with boards of
directors and senior management have
revealed that these people are unfamiliar
with current thinking... thinking that has
been accepted by scientists and philosophers
for decades.


These very same breakthroughs in thinking
are responsible for generating the
technologies that are reshaping life for
everyone in the world and are being applied
in every science and by virtually every
master practitioner in all fields of human
endeavor. Politics, business, and education
have managed to remain far behind in their
integration of new thinking.
THE PROBLEM:


We are no longer in an
Industrial Era.

(yet we still manage things
as if we were)

“Beat the competition!”
What kind of thinking would produce this
statement?

Is this a finite game with agreed on rules and
a clear winner? Are we at war with someone?
Are there clearly defined players? Are the
stakes defined? How will we know when
we’ve won? Is this really a worthwhile goal?
A complex ecosystem
requires business leaders to
adopt a different kind of
skillset and mindset.

This is not about having
‘design’ in your title (or not).

This is about a mindset and
skillset that can produce
better results.

A ‘design’ mindset.
“
The trouble is, when confronted with a mystery,
most linear business types resort to what they
know best: They crunch the numbers, analyze,
and ultimately redefine the problem “so it isn’t a
mystery anymore; it’s something they’ve done 12
times before,” Martin says. Most don’t avail
themselves of the designer’s tools — they don’t
think like designers — and so they are ill-prepared
for an economy where the winners are
determined by design.

  • 38. commoditiz ation of goods & services increasing interdependence mergers & acquisitions environmental degradation economic & political uncertainty rate of technology change complex increasingly new forms of com petition globalization social change a networked economy deregulation & privatization a value chain that can’t be controlled
  • 39. The long term winners in complex ecologies are those that fit with an environment, compete within a context of cooperation, and create systems that become increasingly complex while remaining extremely flexible.
  • 40. “ ...we must understand that businesses are complex systems; each is composed of myriad independent quot;partsquot; (employees, information systems, teams, customers, partners, and so on) that work together to meet business goals. What makes them complex is their endless variety of parts (e.g., no two employees are the same) and the sophisticated web of relationships they make up. This inherent complexity makes the behavior of the business largely unpredictable, and generally uncontrollable by those relatively few parts in leadership positions (just as ant colonies or bee swarms are not controlled by their respective queens). -Marc Rix, Chaotic IT http://chaoticit.blogspot.com/2007/02/chaotic-innovation-give-mavericks-keys.html
  • 42. “Wait, are we talking about business or biology?”
  • 43. “ My countless conversations with boards of directors and senior management have revealed that these people are unfamiliar with current thinking... thinking that has been accepted by scientists and philosophers for decades. These very same breakthroughs in thinking are responsible for generating the technologies that are reshaping life for everyone in the world and are being applied in every science and by virtually every master practitioner in all fields of human endeavor. Politics, business, and education have managed to remain far behind in their integration of new thinking.
  • 44. THE PROBLEM: We are no longer in an Industrial Era. (yet we still manage things as if we were)
  • 45. EXERCISE #2: e or The next time you are sitting in an executiv untable management mee ting, or anywhere that people acco d in a for the perfor mance of a corporation are engage id. discussion, listen very carefully to what is sa a new Listen to the idea s, and notice if they resonate with of way of thinking - a way of thinking that is capable rapidly achieving a marketplace advantage in today’s changing environment. d notice As you listen, set aside the current buzzwords an erent from what remai ns. Do you hear theory that is diff s ago? what you might have heard decade
  • 46. “Beat the competition!” What kind of thinking would produce this statement? Is this a finite game with agreed on rules and a clear winner? Are we at war with someone? Are there clearly defined players? Are the stakes defined? How will we know when we’ve won? Is this really a worthwhile goal?
  • 47. A complex ecosystem requires business leaders to adopt a different kind of skillset and mindset.
  • 48. Business needs design now, more than ever.
  • 49. Business needs design M a Design now, more indset! than ever.
  • 50. This is not about having ‘design’ in your title (or not). This is about a mindset and skillset that can produce better results. A ‘design’ mindset.
  • 51. “ The trouble is, when confronted with a mystery, most linear business types resort to what they know best: They crunch the numbers, analyze, and ultimately redefine the problem “so it isn’t a mystery anymore; it’s something they’ve done 12 times before,” Martin says. Most don’t avail themselves of the designer’s tools — they don’t think like designers — and so they are ill-prepared for an economy where the winners are determined by design. http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/93/design.html
  • 52. “So, what are the differences?”
  • 55. planning vs thinking solving vs framing
  • 56. planning vs thinking decision attitude vs design attitude solving vs framing

Envisioning unseen opportunities. Casting visions of the future. Synthesizing information. Systems thinking. Abductive thinking.
  • 63. Increasing Complexity needs really good Problem Framing to enable Revolutionary Solutions

  • 65. EXERCISE #1: “What is it that designers do?”
  • 66. “Everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into preferred ones.” - Herbert Simon
  • 67. What is possible? Not what is likely, what’s probable, or what’s predictable. What is possible?
  • 68. “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.” - Alan Kay
