The document discusses how agile practices can emerge from systems thinking and a focus on constraints rather than being imposed from the top down. It advocates shifting from event-oriented thinking to understanding systems and feedback loops. Agile capabilities and liquidity can emerge when teams focus on enabling constraints like work-in-progress limits rather than selecting demand to match pre-defined capacity. For agility to scale in an organization, there must be a focus on building the thinking skills of understanding flows and constraints across the enterprise, not just implementing standardized practices.

Basadur Applied Innovation & Leadership Dialogues
Many companies are returning to a changed business context and need to quickly solve a range of new problems or reinvent their products and services. This is an exciting opportunity to innovate. Many fewer recognize that achieving these creative results efficiently requires an effective process, specific skills and tools, and the right blend of thinking styles working in sync with one another. When any of these are lacking, teams may struggle to innovate. To help leaders, business owners and HR professionals engage these challenges, Ellen Moran and Tim Basadur will provide an introduction to the Simplexity Method for Applied Innovation which is designed to enable teams and organizations to achieve innovative results quickly.
Session Outcomes:
• Discover the necessary elements for innovative results – The Innovative Results Equation • Learn the four creative problem-solving preferences of team members and how their way of interacting can be a facilitator or roadblock for team innovation. • Understand the four-stage innovation process to move teams through problem-finding, problem-defining, problem solving and solution implementation in a way that drives strong team alignment and commitment. • Leave with practical tools and frameworks that can immediately boost creative collaboration where you work.

What happens when an organisation commits itself to 'humanity above bureaucracy'?
Bureaucracy and traditional power structures hinder organisations from harnessing the power of their employees, their intelligence, ideas and passions.
New models seem necessary to build a truly human organisation, one that balances scale and speed, efficiency and creativity, control and experimentation.
Pugh collaboration and four discussion disciplines for sikm 171017Katrina (Kate) Pugh
Great collaboration -- whether between team members, across org units, or across orgs -- requires three key ingredients: Purpose, Structure, and Psychological Safety. We explore the four discussion disciplines, an online (and often offline) practice for improving psychological safety.
Innovation is a team sport, and great Knowledge Practitioners are well-suited to lead this. That is because they have long been product innovators and have the temperament and toolkit to be idea-bridgers and conveners.
In this presentation, we will report on our experience with new ways of teaching and coaching agility that explicitly aim to create viral change by instilling new ways of thinking not just changing practice. We will analyse the self-sealing logic of implementing agile methods to show 1) why change should be viral and how this differs from traditional or even evolutionary change, 2) why viral change needs new ways of teaching and coaching that go beyond the rational explanation of practices, and 3) why this new way of teaching and coaching is important to engage the entire organization. Consequently, we will discuss the importance of simulation as a way to address the intuitive as well as the rational brain. We will introduce integrative thinking as a way to overcome the differences between agile methods and to bridge the gap between organizational silos. We examine the role of networks, rather than hierarchies, as a way of organizing change that is congruent with 21st century business agility.
My presentation and exercises on Leading Change for an Executive Education program. The presentation includes an exercise in which the participants work in groups on a live change project within their organization during a period of three months. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Your agile transformation is done, but the organization as a whole is still not flexible and responsive. What causes this and what can you do about it? Building on his articles Beyond Agile and How to build your own Spotify model Jurriaan shares his vision on what you can do to truly become a future-proof end-to-end agile organization. How to look at Teal, Holacracy and other future of work trends and how to apply them in a pragmatic way.

Responding to the Impact of #Covid19 Pandemic & Economic Crisis and Beyond - ...Richard Platt
So this Economic Crisis caused by the #Covid19 pandemic has hit us all pretty hard, so I thought you might want to get a leg up and over this whole thing and leverage your own and your organization's talents and abilities to make that Innovation Pivot, that everyone is going to need to do, and done quickly, otherwise it's not good for you and your company. This #Covid19 has been a big reset, but more than that, it's a #StrategicInflectionPoint, which basically means that everyone's profitability and competitive advantage got smashed, and you all are going to have to do something about that...and the one way we know, that will work, is to #innovate your way out of this economic downturn, because at the end of the day, no company or individual is going to survive this impact without Innovating their way out of the situation. So we suggest you have a read and let us know what you think, and if you need help let us know, we do know how to deal with this, learn how to #systematically innovate and get you going once again and back to being profitable and competitive individuals and firms.
LKCE19 - Patrick Steyaert - Agile Portfolio’s as Market Places - Autonomy mee...Lean Kanban Central Europe
Self-governance models (e.g. Holacracy, Teal organization, Sociocracy 3.0, …) as well as models for aligned autonomy(e.g.the 'Spotify model') have emerged to address the need for strategic agility.Strategic agility, however, requires more than autonomy and alignment.Suppose that you are working in an organization where you have multiple initiatives going on.On a regular basis work finishes and capacity becomes available(supply - side).At the same time customers– external as well as internal– are requesting new work to be performed(demand - side).Ideally, you can perfectly match the needs of newly arrived work with the capacity that has become available.In reality, however, work arrives when there is no free capacity or where the right type of capacity is not free;or, capacity becomes available when there is no new demand or where the demand is not of the right type. Whether we want it or not, organizations are market places where an ever - varying, ever - evolving demand is confronted with an ever varying, ever - evolving supply.These market places are internal, but reflect the external market place.As a reflection they can draw inspiration from these external market places in the way they are operated.In this presentation we will explore what it takes to run an 'agile portfolio' as an(internal) market place inspired on financial markets. We will start with laying out the structure of the portfolio as a market place(who trades what, and so on).In analogy to the concept of market liquidity that can be found in financial markets, we will explore organizational liquidity as a measure of how well supply and demand can be matched.We will take into account all the realities of a varying demand and a constrained supply and discuss why and how to improve liquidity.We will explore the concept of disintermediation(cutting out the middlemen), a hot trend in financial markets(e.g.with cryptocurrencies).Inspired by this, we will end with giving a glimpse of a possible future of internal market places that are regulated by a digicoin.The goal is to explore disintermediated liquidity as a powerful new way of self - organizing.
Businesses of all sizes struggle to balance innovation with business as usual. Although both activities are vitally important, it can sometimes feel as though the two are at odds with one another as they compete for attention, resource and time.
We ran an interactive event for CIPD Coventry & Warwickshire Branch that highlighted the tools you need to create a culture that embraces innovation. We also explained how to harness high performance leadership techniques that use different management approaches for innovation and the day-to-day.
Together we explored:
- The key differences between innovation and business as usual.
- Organisational Ambidexterity — what is it, why does it matter, and how does your firm stack up?
- The different types of innovation (from incremental, ‘small i’ innovation to radical, ‘Big I’ innovation) and the different management approaches that are needed even for these.
- The role of leadership, management and strategy in creating ambidexterity.
- Insights from other organisations that have got the balancing act right.

Honest Reviews of Tim Han LMA Course Program.pptxtimhan337
Personal development courses are widely available today, with each one promising life-changing outcomes. Tim Han’s Life Mastery Achievers (LMA) Course has drawn a lot of interest. In addition to offering my frank assessment of Success Insider’s LMA Course, this piece examines the course’s effects via a variety of Tim Han LMA course reviews and Success Insider comments.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
