@reuvengorsht!
will set the direction of a
company’s desired destination

deal of influence on the company’s ability to
evolve innovate and leapfrog
the competition
leapfroG
The future will be less
about money, power or
size, but more about
Agility
networking
Sharing
Ben Horowitz
“Big companies have plenty of great
ideas, but they do not innovate
because they need a whole hierarchy
of people to agree that a new idea is
good in order to pursue it. If one
smart person figures out something
wrong with an idea — often to show
off or to consolidate power
— that’s usually enough to kill it”
Venture Capitalist
REMEMBER THE WALKMAN

THE POWER OF THE INDIVIDUAL
the best talent, best ideas, best
processes, abundance of cash.
If your culture does not align, being
successful starts looking as if it’s a
matter of luck.

Cultural Attributes for
INNOVATION

the dots

Cultural Attributes for
INNOVATION
A culture of
questioning
Why are we doing it this way?
Is there a better
Approach?
The Five Monkeys Experiment
A group of scientists placed 5 monkeys in a cage and in the
middle, a ladder with bananas on the top.
Every time a monkey went up the ladder, the scientists soaked
the rest of the monkeys with cold water.
After a while, every time a monkey went up the ladder, the
others beat up the one on the ladder.
After some time, no monkey dared to go up the ladder
regardless of the temptation.
Scientists then decided to substitute one of the monkeys. The 1st
thing this new monkey did was to go up the ladder. Immediately the
other monkeys beat him up.
After several beatings, the new member
learned not to climb the ladder even though
it never knew why.
A 2nd monkey was substituted and the same occurred. The 1st
monkey participated on the beating for the 2nd monkey. A 3rd monkey
was changed and the same was repeated (beating).
The 4th was substituted and the beating
was repeated and finally the 5th monkey
was replaced.
What was left was a group of 5 monkeys that even though never
received a cold shower, continued to beat up any monkey who
attempted to climb the ladder.
If it was possible to ask the monkeys why they would beat up all
those who attempted to go up the ladder…
I bet you the answer would be…
“I don’t know – that’s how things are
done around here”
Does this sound familiar?
Questions you raised will be carefully
considered and may trigger ongoing
discussion — and possibly action
You might be praised and even
rewarded, just for asking it.
Culture of Inquiry
This is the way we’ve been doing things
for 20 years
That’s just the way it is…
Around here, we expect people to
bring us answers, not questions.
Culture of Conformity
Most Organizations fall into a culture of
conformity
Companies are designed on a
military model
Questioning can be perceived as:
Challenging Authority Inefficient
Get in the way of “,getting things done ”,
Culture of Inquiry starts at
the top – with leaders who
question
Questioning should be
rewarded
and encouraged
Give people
time And space
to question
Culture of curiosity
As children,
Curiosity
was our primary learning tool.
When we accidentally discovered orange by mixing red and yellow, curiosity sent
us on an excited finger painting frenzy to try all possible color combinations.
BUT WHERE IS IT IN THE WORKPLACE
According to Gallup’s 2013 State of the American Workplace report
!of employees are actively committed to doing a good job
!of employees merely put their time in
!act out their discontent in counterproductive
ways, negatively influencing their coworkers
Change Perspective
incent CURIOSITY
Break the pattern
Culture of iteration
UNSINKABLE ii
“There is no science to creativity. It’s
about taking intelligent risks,
tolerating mistakes, respecting
boundaries, and most important,
having the right people in place to
make the right choices.”
Bob iger
Chairman and CEO
The Walt Disney Company
Have you ever rewarded or recognized anyone
WHO HAS TRIED AND FAILED ”“
It’s time to recognize
Successful failures
as a key ingredient of success
Culture of
connecting the
dots
“Creativity is just connecting
things. When you ask creative
people how they did something,
they feel a little guilty because
they didn’t really do it, they just
saw something”
Steve jobs
Connections fuel creativity
Nothing is original
knowledge experience
Add to
your knowledge
The more knowledge you have,
the more connections you can
make. Start by reading more,
reading more widely, and
exploring new opportunities for
gathering knowledge
The rise of
the generalist
the generalist
As the master of their trade
Practice empathy
Complement specialists
Challenge people to think differently
Approach challenges with an open mind
Skills of the new generalist
•  Attitude first, not only experience
•  Intellectually curious (to an extreme level)
•  Connects the Dots
•  Can imagine the world from different
perspective
•  Leads by influence and collaboration
•  Constantly challenges the status quo and
encourages new ways of doing things
