Scaling up is hard and deadly if done wrong. We would like to help you get it right.
A study by Startup Genome analyzed the results of 3,200 start-ups, they found that of the majority of start-ups failed. That shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. What is more important is they found, 70% failed because of premature or faulty scaling.
In this workshop, you learn about the ABCs method. The ABCs method is a system-based approach to growing your business. It has been proven to build ideas up to 6x faster while reducing risks 30-80%.
Growing your business can be hard work. But, it becomes even harder when you continually focus on “areas for improvement”… There is an alternative; it is called a “Bright Spots Approach”.
In this presentation you will learn:
- Why you should focus more on bright spots
- How other companies are successfully using bright spots to grow faster
- Why bright spots focus will also help you fix the weak spots in your company
- How you can get started quickly

Scaling up is hard and deadly if done wrong. A study by Startup Genome analyzed the results of 3,200 start-ups they found that of the majority of start-ups failed. That shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. What is more important is they found, 70% failed because of premature or faulty scaling.
A solution is “Nail it, then scale it” approach to growing your business. To make it easy to remember the approach we have boiled things down to a simple “ABCs” formula:
A = Ask for help
B = Build ideas together
C = Clarify
S = Build in Systems for growth
CYCLES course (5): Systems and System ThinkingBryan Cassady
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.
Enough information to update your objectives and start another cycle.
Building Innovation Habits
If innovation is not happening regularly in your organization, you need to re-think what you are doing to promote and enable innovation. The natural tendency is for leaders to start with a focus on motivating. When companies announce new innovation strategies, too many people see these actions as the “flavour of the month”. Without the skills and systems to make innovation happen little changes. A better solution is to first, focus on building systems to make innovation easier, then culture and lastly, business strategy.
A lot of new advances in behavioural science has shown motivation and willpower it a notoriously unsuccessful way to build habits. The state of the art is quite simple. Habits are built on behaviour. You need to make behaviour possible then reinforce the behaviour to create habits.
What is important, useful, new, or counterintuitive about your idea?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Businesses almost always focus on motivating employees first. When the task is difficult like making innovation happen, the step should be making things easier. Then there is room to work on motivation.
Managers also need to be aware of the waves of willingness and learn to take hard action when willingness, so things will continue when willingness is low.
Why do managers need to know about it? How can your idea be applied today?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Behaviour happens when people are willing, able and ready. Until you are getting the right behaviours, it doesn’t make sense to work on building habits. Why: Habits are essentially reinforced behaviours. If your company is willing and able to innovate (The right behaviours are possible), focus on triggering behaviours and reinforcing behaviours to build habits. If not (and most companies are here), follow this simple 4-step process: Step 1 Identify / Step 2 Facilitate / Step 3 Trigger / Step 4 Reinforcement
Growing your business can be hard work. But, it becomes even harder when you continually focus on “areas for improvement”… There is an alternative; it is called a “Bright Spots Approach”.
In this presentation you will learn:
- Why you should focus more on bright spots
- How other companies are successfully using bright spots to grow faster
- Why bright spots focus will also help you fix the weak spots in your company
- How you can get started quickly

Speed Dating + TRUE NORTH tool to simplify your challengesBryan Cassady
You’re often alone trying to shape and define your innovation challenges. The reality is that if you start in the wrong direction, it is unlikely you’ll get where you want to go.
Background:
We developed this speed dating technique while running our remote innovation certification program. It is not a webinar where you sit and listen. It is an opportunity to interact with people all over the world through a series of break-out sessions. Participants are split-out into groups of 4 or 5 and later gets feedback for their ideas/challenges.
Once you know what you want to do it is time to build ideas that have a chance to deliver on your objectives. Contrary to the belief that the ability to build ideas is limited to a select few, there are tools, techniques that can help any team build better ideas.
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
With these tools and techniques the process is clear, but clear does not mean easy. Removal of fear and an ongoing action focus is the “secret sauce” that can pull everything together.
Deliverable: New ideas that have a good chance of being on strategy; meaningful and unique
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
Design thinking is a customer centric methodology to solve problems and innovate. Learn how this repeatable process can help you think outside the box.

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
Too often the good behaviours started in a sprint don’t stick, so a common solution is to innovate outside the core.
I believe a better solution is a habit-building approach based on the latest science of behavioural design
1. What are habits / why are they important
2. 4 steps to build habits
3. Building habits with Sprints
4. A few ideas

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.

Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.

Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.

Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.

Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

2. About Me
• 10 Start-ups in 6 countries (8 winners, 1
loser, 1 unknown)
• As a consultant, dozens of scale-ups
• Lecturer : KU Leuven , Solvay
• Director Founder Institute/ Inacademy
• My work is to help people in small and
larger companies build the companies
of their dreams
3 Beliefs
1. Good entrepreneurs learn to
accept risk, great entrepreneurs
learn to manage risk
2. The best way to manage risk is to
be systematic
3. Almost any learning system is
better than no system
3. 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
Deluded
Scared of Negative
Alone
Unclear
Lacking Systems
Not Making
Decisions
4. A quick test… Who are these companies
today?
Personal
podcasting and
sharing audio
content
6. Did you know that
about 70% of
companies fail at the
scale up phase?
How to not be one
of those
companies?
7. How to make it happen?
By using processes/systems
Why do you need system/processes ?
If you have a great product 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
8. What is the process/system?
At Fast Bridge, we have developed what we call,
‘the ABC’s of growth’
A = Alignment on needs / Ask for help
B = Build ideas
C = Communicate and Check
S = Systems for growth
10. Based on 2 years of research with
over 300 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.
The Reality… Quality

12. The Mental state you need
• Humility... know you will get it wrong
• Vulnerability to ask for help/ to say
you don’t know
• Get lots of feedback
• Learn and move on

25. 2 types of entrepreneurs
1. Risk takers (they like the macho bit)
2. Risk reducers (they like getting house odds)
• A risk reducing entrepreneur will build a strategy that
increases odds of success from
• 10%
• to 20%
• to 50%
26. How… by asking again and again
“If this business fails, why would it fail ?”
“If this business fails, why would it fail ?”
“If this business fails, why would it fail ?”
Then finding answers

29. Stop saying everything is fine!
It is time to stand naked in front of
your team and partners and tell
them the truth…
“I need your help to solve the
following issues..”
30. 5 Whys
Why is no one paying for our service ?
We never asked anyone to pay
Why have we never asked anyone ?
We haven’t found a pain someone is willing to pay to resolve
Why no pain to resolve ?
We haven’t focused on a specific segment yet
Why no segment yet
We have spent too much time at our desk
Why too much time at our desk
We are scared to meet clients because we don’t have ideas to sell
We need ideas for
things we can sell
31. Personally, I find nothing sadder
than a CEO with a big team
working alone on all the big
problems…
32. TRUE Truly Simple Let's get paid
N
Narrative.
Why it is
important
(the story)
If we can't find a way to get people to pay for our
service, we have no business regardless of how
great our technology is, how many people
download our product or how useful it is.
O Objective 3 ideas to make money that we can test
R
Restrictions:
We are not
interested in
A fee for use of the plug-in
People will not pay
T
Tactical
Constraints:
We have around 250 K to grow the business, so
the solutions need to be low cost. AND we need to
work with partners
H
Here is the
place to start
Look at areas where the of Information value is
high and searching takes time (eg Job applicants,
News stories, etc°
Make it a story
Be honest
Be specific
Ask for help
TRUE N.O.R.T.H = A way to ask for help..
35. 1. Define your needs to build direction and remove fear (already
done)
2. Make sure you have a diverse team (Probably OK)
------------------------------------------------------------
3. Get stimulus (Stimulus mining)
4. Mix and match (Association)

39. For clarity of objective
• If you can’t explain your ideas to an 8 year old, it’s too
complicated
• Don’t assume people will understand
• Follow the 7P’s for effective communication
Why communication within the
organization matters
40. • Write the ideas down before discussing
• Make sure that whatever you discuss gives a complete
meaning
• Clarify the objective before discussion
• Be accurate
• Tell your employees what you expect out of them
How to communicate effectively
42. The bigger the organization, the
higher are chances of lack of clarity
• When you are by yourself , it is easy to understand
• When you’re in a group you have to fight for clarity
• There are 2 very easy solutions
• Use checklists
• Write your ideas down
43. How to make brilliant ideas
Talk with
Friends
Really Ugly
Meetup
Event
Still Ugly
Speak at
Conference

Presentation
Good Enough
45. Ask 10 successful companies about the
systems that drove their success …
You’ll get 10 different answers.
This is because systems help
• Optimize communication
• Foster leadership
• Make it easier to make decisions
• Help your people grow
48. The reality is the ABCs is just an easy
way to remember a process …
The choice of a process/system is less
important than having a process that:
Increases Speed
Removes risk
50. I have been working on this a long
time…
TRUE Truly Simple A 70% success rate scale up program
N
Narrative. Why it is
important (the story)
People have big dreams, helping them is the right thing to do
O Objective A sytem to deliver the same success rates I've had
R
Restrictions: We are
not interested in
Something that can be taught and shared
T Tactical Constraints: It will work in any industry
H
Here is the place to
start
Innovation Engineering and any other program that is proven
to work
51. My New Book
A joint project with accelerators / Experts
around the world
A combination of theory and hands on
exercises
Introductions:
A = Alignment
How to build organizational alignment
B = Build
How to build better ideas quicker
C = Communicate / Check
How to clearly communicate and check
your ideas
S = Systems
How to set up the right systems to lead
and get better over time
Conclusions
54. The world’s best content and
learning systems
Key Strengths
A Fact based approach
Teaching skills by doing "I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.“
But long and expensive (for European scale ups)
55. Key Learnings
• World class content
• Great “learn by doing”
exercises
• But too much of a good
thing - 4 semesters of
content
TRY SHORTER, FASTER.
56. A new shorter version…
A team to create
A weekend version
59. Key Learnings
• A fast proven format
• Working with peers - tested and successful
• But concerns about confidentiality and it hard to compete against free
• A need for more time to create real results
Look for best practices TEST a “program”
62. Do Mentors / Accelerators help ?
• There is no empirical evidence that mentors or
accelerators help growing business (except when the
mentor is an angel investor)
• Mentors have been shown to build a false sense of security and
get companies too focused on the “big ideas
• In a review of 35 academic articles and 38 studies, the Kauffman
association concluded “no evidence that companies are more
successful if they come out of an incubator”
Sideline: Angel mentors don’t build upside, but remove downside
risk
64. Opportunities
• The typical program uses
Entrepreneurs, the skills that make
a good entrepreneur are the not the
same as a coach / teacher (shallow
narrow focus)
• Too much help ‘they never learn to
fish’
• Too little help ‘here is a space and
money..go..
• Fixed timings to build urgency
(some notable exceptions)
• Learn from programs with proven
track records (share experience)
1. Structured / Fixed timings
2. Education to build
skills/mindsets
3. Mentors working in their
expertise
4. Working with peers (in
addition to mentors)
5. Forcing moments
6. Learning cycles
7. Eco-system development
7 ways to do
it better
68. Key Learnings
• Regular cycles great
• Working together good
• But… Everyone moves at
different speeds
• Deadlines don’t work like
they do for start-ups (there is
not quick catch-ups)
72. Results
17 chapters
8 co-authors agreed
4 events planned
The proposal to co -authors
We want your brain not your pain
Step #1 Each chapter will be written
jointly with my co-authors as a 20-
30 minutes power point presentation
Step #2: The Ghost writer will write
up the chapter based on this content
Step #3: Feedback from the co-
authors and sign off
