A = Alignment
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.

Better problem formulation
Effectuation (looking for ideas at home with the resources you have)
Systematic search for stimulus and diversity
Techniques to continue building ideas

Speed of innovation and certainty of your digital technology strategy is your new IP.
Market leading brands know they are competing in the 3rd Industrial Revolution – The Software Economy – and they will live or die by their digital adoption. Companies mature in digital business transformation are outperforming, making more money, and are more profitable than their peers.
These Digital Leaders are proactively transforming their business models and leading their segments through the frenetic pace of social, mobile, analytics, cloud, and the Internet of Everything. Unfortunately, digital is still shrouded in confusion, viewed as a cost center, and punished with inadequate funding.
How do you transform modern businesses at scale by creating technology-based capabilities, products, services, and business outcomes that delivers your authentic brand promise?
How Design Thinking will fix Design ThinkingBert Bräutigam
Design Thinking faces criticism for its lacking integration with business and compatibility with market reality. There are organizations that see Design Thinking as unnecessary rather than essential to driving organizational change and innovation. Does Design Thinking have to be reinvented or even replaced?
This year’s MIT Sloan Management Review and Deloitte global study of digital business found that digital transformation isn’t really about the technologies. Instead, it stems from how companies integrate them to transform their businesses and how they work.

Design Thinking is a process for creative problem solving. It allows everyone to use creative tools to address a vast range of challenges. The process is action-oriented, embraces simple mindset shifts and tackles problems from a new direction.
According to McKinsey, companies that adopt design as part of business practices can be more resilient than others—continuing to innovate, analyze, and strategize to solve complex problems during trying times.
Some of the world's leading brands, such as Apple, Nike, Starbucks and GE, have rapidly adopted the Design Thinking approach. What's more, Design Thinking is being taught at leading universities around the world, including Stanford, Harvard and MIT.
Based on the world-renowned Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (Stanford University) model, Design Thinking encourages organizations to focus on the people they are creating for, which leads to better products, services, and internal processes. The Design Thinking framework consists of five modes or phases: Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype and Test. The framework is fully compatible with Lean and Six Sigma approaches.
This comprehensive Design Thinking PPT training presentation is tailored specifically for Design Thinking facilitators, trainers, professionals and consultants who are preparing for delivery in a classroom or workshop environment. The included wallet design exercise could be replaced with your own design challenge. In addition, the introductory module can be used as a stand-alone awareness briefing material for a general audience.
You will get to train your target audiences how to solve problems creatively by building empathy, generating ideas, prototyping and testing new concepts before final implementation.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Acquire a deep understanding of the key concepts and principles of Design Thinking
2. Understand the mindsets, process, methods and tools in creative problem solving

An Executive Insider's Guide to Enterprise Agile TransformationScott Richardson
Gain insights and learn real-world strategies and techniques for leading an enterprise or divisional Agile transformation as an executive or senior leader of a large organization.
Getting into consulting is one of the most difficult tasks. It’s not only very selective but also quite tough and long recruitment process. You will have at least 5 job interviews, spend on average 2-3 months in recruiting process and your chances of succeeding will be around 5-10%. I will help you significantly boost the odds in your favor.
This course will help you prepare for the cases that you will be asked to solve during the job interviews with consultants. I will improve your knowledge and skills in analysis through a series of practical cases. It is based on my 11 years of experience as a consultant in top consulting companies and as a Board Member responsible for strategy, improvement and turn-arounds in biggest companies from FMCG, SMG, B2B sector that I worked for. I have participated in over 200 recruitments and the materials in this course will encompass all the tricks that you should use during the interview. On the basis of what you will find in this course and I have trained over 100 business analysts who now are Investment Directors, Senior Analyst, Directors in Consulting Companies, Board Members etc.
There is little theory – mainly examples, a lot of tips from my own experience as well as other notable examples worth mentioning. My intention is that thanks to the course you will know:
1. How to approach any type of cases that you may come across in the job interview?
2. How to apply the most useful concepts and methods used later by consultants in their work?
3. How to be efficient during the interview?
4. How the consultant minds works?

How big businesses can innovate like start ups through IntrapreneurshipMike Allen
Innovation is hard! Necessary, but hard. The number one reason why organisations fail at innovation is generally the organisation. Culture, systems, processes and behaviours can be the greatest inhibitor. Intrapreneurship (the pursuit of intrapreneurial behaviours but within the corporate setting) is an approach that allows organisations to exploit the creativity and talents within their organisation whilst in side-stepping the barriers.
It takes a village..,.
The hardest part of writing this book and the courses that go with it was not finding more to say and share, but to clarify and simplify. All the people list here helped.
Venture boss a program to coach train 1 million entrepreneurs by 2026Bryan Cassady
At venture-boss our mission is to help train and coach 1 million young entrepreneurs by 2026.
But for billions of people around the world, Entrepreneurship is just a dream. It is something other people do.
Venture-boss will change this by offering a simple, but powerful, 5-day learning by doing program that can be run in any language, for almost any type of business, online or in-person by thousands of trainers worldwide.
Our business model is inspired by Innovation engineering taught at 26 US universities. And the Founder Institute run in 182 cities. Our program and their programs are based on independent local programs that are easy to scale AND collaboration for continual improvement.
We’ve already taught students as young as 17 from 22 countries. Based on these successes, we have started new programs in Nigeria, Angola, India and Malaysia.
It is difficult it is to identify companies that have scalable business models AND equally important will they be able to execute their business plans. We have been working on this challenge now for over 4 years.In the past, a few interviews and some financial analysis might have been enough. Today, markets are more complex, and businesses are harder to evaluate. To solve this challenge have recently combined over 10 years of research on more than 10,000 companies to create an assessment that objectively measures: 1/. Scalability of the business 2/. And their ability to deliver innovation consistently.
The accuracy of our assessments are very good. Right now, with a 1-hour assessment, we are able to correctly classify businesses by scalability and able to predict just under 80% of their variance of innovation success
You can have the greatest idea in the world, but it you can’t get other people excited about your idea it won’t go far.
A perfect pitch takes time to prepare. yYu'll learn about the 5Ps of any good pitch (problem, promise, proof, profit and passion) and 7 easy ways to make your next pitch better...
Deliverable: A pitch that people will understand and will inspire them to take action
A lot of research has shown that systems are the key to innovation success.
Systems are made up of interrelated components of people and processes with a clearly defined, shared destination or goal.
Systems work best when everyone shares an understanding and commitment to the aim or purpose of the system.
The foundations are clarity and a commitment to learn, and improve.
Great companies have 3 characteristics that set them apart from the rest. These characteristics are:
1. An ability to see and build on strengths
2. A commitment to build innovation eco-systems and
3. A commitment to ongoing action
Deliverables: Simplifying the challenges, structuring the learning process, getting better internally and in your eco-system.
f you’re looking to build bigger and better ideas, you need to get feedback.
To get effective feedback you need to be able to explain your ideas clearly, really listen (listening is not just hearing!), slow down to make sure you are on the right path and most importantly be ready to kill bad ideas.
Deliverable: Do people understand the idea, what do they think of the idea, are we making progress. If there is no good hope of progress, kill the idea

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

To give you the skills you
need to work effectively on
remote innovation projects.
We want to make you a “sprinter”
that could add value to the
thousands of innovation sprints
being run around the world.
We also hope to change the way you think about
building and growing ideas. In the program you will
find what separates winners from losers over the
long-term is the ability to GROW ideas step by step.

Helping companies bring bigger ideas to market
faster, while reducing risks
3 Beliefs
Anyone can innovate
Bad systems will beat good people over time
Good systems can make average people great
15. What I see…
(at companies
of all sizes)
1. An incredible focus on the positive
2. A continual search for silver bullets
3. Scared to ask for help
4. If they ask, too much done internally
5. What they want to do lacks clarity /
focus
6. Lack of systems / Lack of urgency
7. Avoid tough decisions and stay in a
business too long
Deluded
Lacking Systems
Scared of Negative
Alone
Unclear
Not Making Decisions
16. Good versus great
Entrepreneurs
If you have real product market fit and momentum
you can (but probably won’t) succeed without
systems and processes.
The reality is most successful companies have hit the wall many
times and pivoted their way to success. Processes / systems
increase your odds of getting the pivots right and on time
17. A test… Who are these
companies today?

20. The rise of Sprints
Many companies are coming to understand the power
of deep work, time blocking. A popular solution is
short, 4-5-day design sprints using global talent.
Sprints are a great way to get ideas started or moving
forward faster. They work because they offer an easy
process to follow that is focused and time-boxed
21. SPRINTZ ARE THE NEXT STEP
Short sprints can achieve a great deal quickly but they do not always deliver the long‐term
results you need. Using the design sprint method as a foundation, we have built something
even better; SprintZ
Our program offers everything you will find in a traditional sprint, but we also provide a
trained team selected from a global talent pool, a process, tools and a training program.
Our pilot programs have been successful in education, product development, non‐profit and
the creation of new start‐ups. We are helping managers and companies do more and learn
more than they ever thought possible by working 10‐15 hours per week for five weeks.
23. How many of
my clients

25. The Real Story :
Build, Measure, Learn and improve
1988
Started as an ice sculpture event
1989
A central unit was created called ARTic Hall. (60 M2)A
specialist survival group of the Swedish Armed Forces
spent the night . They decided to put in a bar
1990
French Artist Jannot Derid
No rooms in town, so they stayed
91‐93
ARTic Hall expanded to 250 M2. Rented for Corporate get‐aways
Artists come and go and start making rooms
1993
Still losing money, needing corporate support
Absolut Vodka got interested in corporate get-aways
“Cold, but cool”
“Someone might pay for this”
“Love the rooms”
“We’ve got an ICE Hotel”
26. The Reality…
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.
