We’re all trying to transform. At the company level, a transformation is a very big experiment indeed, at both the macro level, and at the very granular level of the daily, hourly, immediate work itself. To transform the way people think and behave within an organization to be more of a problem solving mindset is no easy task and varies from industry to industry, company to company and person to person. It requires disipline, investment and a belief that we can make things better.
Successful transformation calls for a situational approach that is based on innovating key dimensions of any organization through addressing a series of questions. These questions are fractal, meaning the same questions apply whether working at the macro enterprise level or the level of individual responsibility as you dive progressively deeper into each dimension. But, while the transformation that has emerged through years of experience is situational, the nature of the questions represent a clear point of view: If an organization fails to address each question, and with a sense of how each relates to the others, the transformation is headed for trouble.
