Moving Out of Silos - Designing the EnterpriseKeith Senkowski
Curious why Design and Design Thinking are such hot topics in business today? The relationships between enterprises and people continue to suffer deeply from an endless parade of design focusing on the wrong thing. Organizations tend to focus more on trying to design behavior and culture, rather than on designing systems to allow for behavior and culture to emerge. Embracing the differences between complexity and complication to rethink organizational systems is how we meaningfully evolve the enterprise.

This document contains a series of inspirational quotes and sayings encouraging the reader to take action and do something. Some of the key messages are: you have to do things to know who you are, rather than the reverse; success requires hard work without recognition; thinking more doesn't always help figure things out; no one cares what you haven't finished or done; excuses are bullshit; and you should do something worth doing. The quotes are attributed to various inspirational figures and aim to motivate the reader to work hard and take opportunities.
1. The document discusses how failure can lead to success through an "ecosystem of failing" and that success is not always due to merit but can be due to chance.
2. It argues that a closed, linear system of "if-then" thinking does not exist in a complex world where the unexpected should be expected. Coincidences and luck can influence outcomes.
3. Taking risks and being open to failure allows one to potentially excel, as failure provides learnings that can enable future success. An individual's failures may propel a group or species overall through innovation.
The document discusses how 2008 was a successful year for EXIT Realty with a 39% increase in volume and 80% increase in transactions. It provides several motivational quotes about success, working hard, learning from experts, and not giving up even when facing challenges or failures.
Synchronicity The Inner Path of LeadershipRenny Curvers
1. The document summarizes the key points from the book "Synchronicity - The Inner Path of Leadership" by Joseph Jaworski. It discusses some of the problems with current leadership approaches, including a lack of self-knowledge and focus on interconnection rather than separation.
2. It describes the importance of "the moment of swing" when gathering a team, which is based on truth, trust, and passion and allows for collective thinking.
3. Leaders need to be aware of potential traps like overresponsibility, dependency, and over-activity. True commitment involves discipline to see projects through to completion and opens the way for unforeseen support when taking action.

This document contains advice and quotes about innovation. It emphasizes that innovation is messy and experimental, requiring trying new ideas, failing, and trying again. It stresses getting started on innovation now through actions like prototyping ideas, decentralizing to encourage independent tries, and rewarding failures as well as successes in order to learn and move innovation efforts forward. The overall message is that continuous experimentation, action, and persistence are needed to drive innovation successfully.
A learning leader recognizes that learning involves failure, creativity, and building on others' ideas. They see every person as both a learner and leader. An effective learning leader reads widely and shares information, and can articulate their vision for learning through a personal manifesto. The document discusses 6 characteristics of learning leaders, including seeing play and failure as part of learning and growth. It provides examples of how skills like improvisation, storytelling and accepting others' ideas apply to both learning and leading organizations. The document concludes by asking the reader to develop their own learning manifesto.
The document provides a collection of quotes and sayings related to taking action, experimenting, failing, and innovating. Some key ideas expressed are:
- Start doing things now rather than planning excessively. Intelligent action is better than inaction.
- Experiment frequently and be willing to fail, as failure is an important part of the learning process. Try new things even if you might screw them up.
- Pursue bold missions and hire unusual people who can drive innovative change through experimentation.
Presenter: Sheryl Cababa, Executive Creative Director, Artefact
Remember Jeff Goldblum in the original Jurassic Park? That’s me. I’m the killjoy in the room. I’m the presence that reminds you that for every advancement in technology and design, there is a potential unintended consequence. Asking whether we should is just as important as asking whether we could.
My goal is not just to kill your vibe, it’s to help you become better designers and technologists. The way to do this is to surface the outcomes – both the ones you want to happen, and the ones you want to avoid – during the design process. And the best way to do that is by prompting yourselves about the things you don’t want to think about. Tech is gonna tech. Technology optimism is a hard thing to overcome, but we at Artefact have been creating methods in our practice for having those hard conversations, and connecting them to our design work.
In this session, you’ll learn from me about how to integrate outcomes-focused thinking in your work, and how it intersects with human-centered design. Attendees will learn:
• Examples of cautionary tales in technology: decisions that have led to unintended consequences
• Key areas of focus to become a more outcomes-oriented designer
• Outcomes-focused prompts and tools to integrate into the design practice
• Applicable methods with case studies of how Artefact has integrated outcomes-focused thinking in our work
The document discusses various topics related to innovation, creativity, and organizational change. It provides quotes and stories on topics such as:
1) Applying existing knowledge in new ways is often the source of new ideas, not new information. Standing still is the fastest way to move backwards in a rapidly changing world.
2) Benchmarking is about using best practices to stimulate radical innovation, not just incremental improvements. Problems cannot be solved by thinking within the framework that created them.
3) Obstacles will always appear when taking your eye off the goal. No company can afford complacency in today's competitive world. The future depends on decisions made in the present.
