Thales Conversation on Innovations pointsOscar Omegna
The document discusses innovation and provides tips for developing innovations that have the biggest impact on an enterprise. It suggests focusing on innovations that try new ideas, make things easier, faster, or more fun. Innovations should be considered in terms of whether they are incremental, transformative, or disruptive and whether they impact the business core, expansion, or potential. The document outlines the innovation process from having an idea to developing it, testing it, delivering the solution, and assessing whether it was incremental, transformative, or disruptive in its impact. It advises starting the process from somewhere, such as with a proof of concept, minimum viable product, or small sample, and getting feedback to refine the innovation.
The document proposes a "12Hour Startup" approach where teams are given 12 hours to build a new product or service from existing resources to stimulate creative thinking. It argues that the approach allows employees to try lingering ideas, pushes forward simple executable ideas, and builds camaraderie. The downside is said to be virtually zero, and committed ideas should be trialled for 3 months. Repeating the process every 3-6 months could encourage a culture of innovation in a company.

Jane will then turn to her experiences at MOO, explaining how to lead an effective design team in an organisation that is scaling Agile. She will present the structures, the day-to-day processes and the lessons she has learned.
CONNECTING THE DOTS - FINDING YOUR PATH TO THE NEXT LEVELeonerve2011
The document discusses the process of innovation from idea generation to execution. It emphasizes that innovation is a process, not random, and new ideas must be properly validated. The path to success involves going from an idea, to validating the idea by getting customer feedback, to execution by launching a minimum viable product and iterating based on data. The key is not having all the answers up front but knowing the right questions to ask customers along the way.
You may be very busy at work, but are you productiveTushar Vakil
The document discusses the concept of productivity and defines it as doing the right tasks to achieve goals rather than just keeping busy or getting everything done. It states that effectiveness, or doing the right tasks, is more important than efficiency alone. A hypothetical example is given of cleaning one's office efficiently but not effectively if the goal was to send a proposal to a client. The document concludes by advertising a personal productivity training module that helps people utilize tools to be highly productive and has measurable returns of up to 500%.

The document discusses the pros and cons of pair programming versus solo programming. Pair programming may lead to faster problem solving, easier ramping up for new developers, and happier working hours. However, it could also result in mismatched work strategies between pairs or the establishment of full-time teacher/student roles. The document argues that pair programming is most effective when the right habits are learned, there is respect between partners, problems are solved quickly, and tasks are appropriately challenging.
This document provides advice for starting a startup. It notes that startups are often confused about their product, customers, and business model. It then discusses that success is difficult, with only 25% of startups and 10% of products succeeding. It recommends finding a passion, determining what you can be best at, and what can make sustainable money. It emphasizes the importance of building the right team and advises moving fast, testing often, and keeping operations lean. The document provides tips on fundraising, what VCs want to see, and resources like accelerators that can help startups.

Agile efforts typically begin in engineering but become stagnant when they fail to expand to other parts of the organization. This talk will explore the individual systems that must thrive for an entire organization to be agile. The four core elements that must exist for agility to scale with longevity and purpose are: alignment to strategy, customer-first values, lean discovery practices, and capacity for change. We will take an in depth look at how each element operates with agile methods and what is required for them to evolve within the business. Gain an understanding of how to move beyond following practices in isolation in order to achieve harmony in the full embrace of reciprocal agile principles at scale.
The new role for B2B PR - Five Minute PitchPaul Maher
1. The document outlines the challenges that businesses now face in marketing due to three disruptive changes: information democracy, consumer technology, and search optimization. These changes have made information widely and constantly available, technology ubiquitous, and searching effortless.
2. Traditional marketing approaches like targeting hard-to-find buyers, relying on "free advertising," and simply explaining products are no longer effective. Clicks and ads don't necessarily lead to genuine discussions or build brands.
3. The document argues that owning discussions through starting conversations is now important for marketing. It promotes the services of Positive Marketing to help companies prospect in more places, discuss products anytime, and position themselves in the "River of News" flowing online through
Halim Madi presents on product building fundamentals at Facebook. He outlines the Understand-Identify-Execute framework that Facebook uses. This involves first understanding the problem and goal, then identifying the best opportunities to achieve the goal, and finally executing the plan perfectly. He emphasizes understanding why the goal is important and setting measurable metrics. The presentation provides examples of understanding user problems, such as finding people with shared interests or expressing reactions to content. It also discusses Facebook product manager Julie Zhou's three questions for understanding: what problem are we solving, how do we know it's real, and how will we know if we've solved it.
This document debunks several common myths about entrepreneurship and innovation. It argues that entrepreneurs should focus on understanding customer needs rather than having committed ideas, prove their business model without seeking large amounts of cash, consider fast followers as viable options rather than needing to be first to market, take time for reflection rather than always moving fast, and focus on high-impact activities by maintaining a "do not do" list rather than constantly doing more. The overall message is that conventional wisdom about speed, commitment, and bold action is often wrong, and entrepreneurs should test assumptions, remain open to learning, and optimize their approach through experimentation.
No business can thrive without the discovery of a great idea. But, then again, an idea needs to undergo proper development to transform into a successful business venture – else your unpolished idea dies a quick death. In this article, we will talk about how one can turn an idea into a business.
Lean Startup 101 at Lean Startup Circle Jakarta Meetup July 2013Farina Situmorang
The document discusses Lean Startup methodology which focuses on validating business ideas through iterative customer feedback rather than traditional product development approaches.

This document discusses business model innovation and provides guidance on accelerating its pace. It defines business model innovation as a better way to deliver value. It also defines a business model as a story of how an organization creates, delivers, and captures value. The document lists 10 common reasons why companies fail at business model innovation, such as CEOs not wanting change or believing innovation is someone else's job. It advocates creating a safe environment where organizations can explore and test new business models through a "Real World Lab" that connects various stakeholders to inspire transformation.
Large companies can learn from startups by adopting an experimental approach to innovation that involves testing assumptions through customer interactions rather than relying only on internal planning. While large companies have advantages in resources and experience, their culture is typically focused on executing existing business models rather than exploring new opportunities through rapid experimentation. Effective innovation within large firms requires dedicated teams or partnerships that apply startup methodologies but are also integrated with the larger organization to enable scaling of successful concepts. Managing the tensions between established operations and experimental initiatives requires anticipating conflicts and developing diverse organizational models.
What large companies can learn from the working culture and methodos of startups
The linear career path is long gone. Organizations need managers and executives with a high degree of diversity and curiousity to navigate through uncertainty. People who were exposed to a startup or involved in intrapreneurship experience
Business Ideas And Opportunites - BasicsAndrew Hirst
The document discusses developing business ideas and finding opportunities. It provides various techniques for generating ideas such as brainstorming, developing personas, customer journey mapping, SCAMPER process, and 5 whys. Some key points made are that ideas can come from anywhere, it is rare to have a "eureka" moment, and the problem should be well defined but not limit solutions. It also discusses evaluating ideas using criteria related to markets, feasibility, protecting the idea, and financials to determine which opportunities to pursue.
Based on 4 years of research with over 400 companies - there are companies that succeed and companies that fail. The biggest difference between winners and losers is smart winners make good, even mediocre, ideas great over time.

B = Build ideas
C = Communicate and Check
S = Learning Systems
And explains why a systematic application of these stages of development can help you build ideas faster while reducing the risks of failure.
The document provides guidelines for pitching a startup company or product. It emphasizes that pitches should excite and inspire the audience rather than educate them. Pitches should tell a clear story about solving a problem and showcase the unique value and competitive advantage of the solution.

Effective pitches engage the audience and create a vision for how the company or product can succeed.

Werner Puchert - Stabilizing the unstable. How to deal with adversity & diver...Product Development Days
Werner Puchert gave a presentation about achieving equilibrium between adoption, enablement, and experience in product development. He discussed concepts like simplicity leading to complexity, neutral vs stable states, and how focusing on too few areas like enablement alone can lead to failure. The presentation provided examples of companies like Slack, HipChat, Evernote, and Dropbox that found different levels of success by focusing on adoption, enablement, and experience individually or together. Puchert's overall message was that considering all three pivot points together by focusing on engagement, context, and connectors can help products achieve a stable equilibrium state.

Delivering new features in a careful manner has become the key to competitive eCommerce.

A lot of products fail though there are experienced Product Managers standing behind them. A lot of experienced Product Managers fail as they build their products alone. You will learn why Product Management is not an individual work. Why it is about people, their ideas and their needs and great relations the Product Manager has to build with them. And why it is about worrying not trusting your gut, about leading not managing.
