Neuroentrepreneurship symposium 2015 Academy of ManagementNorris Krueger
Joint research symposium applying insights from neuroscience to understanding entrepreneurship. Builds on the 2014 symposium which was SRO. This is a great crew so feel free to contact any of them
The document discusses entrepreneurship education and developing an entrepreneurial mindset. It describes Coneeect, an international network that provides training for entrepreneurship educators. The main points are:
1) Entrepreneurship programs should focus on developing an entrepreneurial mindset, not just teaching skills or information.
2) The best programs immerse students in entrepreneurial ecosystems through experiences like Startup Weekend and connect them with expert mentors.
3) Educators should focus on facilitating critical developmental experiences and a change in how students think in order to help them evolve from a novice to expert entrepreneurial mindset.

Creativity and innovation management involves connecting ideas in new ways. There are five sources of creativity: grace (divine inspiration), accident (serendipity), association (applying ideas from one area to another), cognitive processes (normal thinking), and personality (an innate ability). Fostering creativity requires overcoming intrinsic factors like fear of failure, cultural barriers, and emotional blocks. Creativity has three main components - motivation from interest in the work, expertise and knowledge in a subject area, and flexible creative thinking. Common myths are that only certain personality types can be creative and that money is the main motivator.

05. Changing minds - interdisciplinary tools for behaviour changeMatt Postles
Behaviour change is a complex issue with multiple approaches across different disciplines. There is no single theory or solution, and effective policies often use a range of interventions. The document discusses three main approaches to understanding behaviour - psychological models that view individuals as social animals making choices, sociological models that study social phenomena, and theories of practice that examine the materials, competences and meanings that constitute practices. It presents the Integrated Social Marketing framework as an interdisciplinary approach that involves stakeholders, draws on multiple disciplines and works in various contexts to create substantive and lasting change. An example applies ISM to address the issue of student pre-drinking behaviour through mapping individual, social and material factors and planning potential interventions.
Interrelation Between Innovation and PersonalityMuhammad Fajar
The document discusses creativity, innovation, and personality. It begins by providing examples of sunrise and sunset industries and how companies must adapt to changing technologies. It then discusses how time-based competition can provide competitive advantages. The document outlines factors that contribute to national and business competitiveness. It emphasizes that innovation results from hard work and discipline rather than genius. The document also discusses five important minds for the future: disciplinary, synthesizing, creating, respectful, and ethical. It examines the relationship between innovation and personality by exploring the concepts of integrity, enthusiasm through desire, passion and hope, and the importance of totality by integrating the body, spirit, and mind. Finally, it discusses how spirituality is an important element for organizational success

Dispositioning Advantage: A Pervert's Guide to Strategy DesignWilliam Evans
Strategy. The identification and exploitation of an opponent’s weakness. Before you can have Strategy Deployment (Policy Deployment, Hoshin Kanri), it tends to reason that you probably need a strategy to deploy. But how do you do that? What are the mechanisms? What are the methods? What are the principles that allow an organization to design a meaningful strategy?
This lively 45 (to 60 minute) romp will introduce you to the history of strategy in organizations (it’s dark, perverse, and full of dragons) from Porter to Rumelt, to Dettmer, and Boyd. Few will remember that in the early days of strategy, there was only one: drive down the experience curve and be the low-cost provider with a stream-lined supply chain. The talk will unpack what strategy actually is and more importantly, what it is not. It will painstakingly deconstruct how the term is ritually abused and misused, and then methodically introduce how strategy is a design problem, but too important to be left to the designers in their plaid shirts, funky glasses, and ernest but ultimately vapid proclamations about human-centered blah blah, validating blah, blah, buzzword bingo verbal diarrhea inventing flaccid constructs like ‘design strategy, content strategy, ux strategy’ and ‘strategic planning’.
The talk will introduce some conceptual frameworks used in military strategy and maneuver warfare, which dates back over 2,300 years to the time of Sun Tzu’s The Art of War. We’ll explore how the time-tested principles of economic and military competition can be applied to social and commercial ventures, such as software and service delivery leading to considerable benefits in coherence, focus. and profit. We’ll then introduces a reasonable, systematic set of methods to help you translate current market uncertainty, fast changing customer needs, and ever-changing technological disruptions into a meaningful strategy and organizational capability ready for Hoshin Kanri.

Innovation from Everyone and Everywhere (1)Marianne Doczi
This document discusses developing sustainable innovation capabilities for 21st century New Zealand. It advocates taking an "innovation from everyone and everywhere" approach to fully harness New Zealand's human capital. The document outlines principles of innovation from all people in all places, customer-centricity, and collaboration both within and across organizations. It also discusses the skills, leadership, culture, and management practices needed in organizations to enable innovation from all sources. The goal is to start an online community to further discuss improving attitudes, skills, and practices for widespread innovation.
Steve Jobs visited Xerox PARC in 1979 and was inspired by the graphical user interface (GUI) he saw, including the mouse. However, he wanted to create something appropriate for mass audiences rather than just reproduce what was seen. Creativity involves generating something new and valuable. Creative leadership combines leadership and creativity to inspire and implement imaginative solutions. Effective creative leaders engage diverse teams, encourage collaboration, provide intellectual challenges to motivate intrinsic motivation, and embrace failures as learning opportunities.

MKI: Tools for Developing Innovative SolutionsMuhammad Fajar
This document discusses tools and methods for developing innovative solutions, including:
- Creativity depends on creative people, products, environments, and processes. Brainstorming, brainwriting and other group idea generation methods can help spark innovation.
- Mind maps are a visual tool to structure information and make connections to help analyze problems and generate new ideas. They can be used for brainstorming, problem-solving, note-taking, and more.
- Various factors contribute to creativity, including imagination, flexibility, personality, motivation, and environment. Overcoming barriers like fear of failure and an open organizational culture also support innovation.
La Unión Europea ha acordado un embargo petrolero contra Rusia en respuesta a la invasión de Ucrania. El embargo forma parte de un sexto paquete de sanciones y prohibirá la mayoría de las importaciones de petróleo ruso en la UE a finales de este año. Algunos estados miembros aún dependen en gran medida del petróleo ruso y se les ha concedido una exención, pero se espera que todo el petróleo ruso quede prohibido para fines de 2023.
La primera etapa fue reinterpretar los relatos bíblicos a la luz del nuevo conocimiento que la Tierra tiene entre 4,400 y 4,510 millones de años, y no fue creada en seis días.

The document emphasizes that innovation happens through solving problems for people and outlines habits of creative thinkers. It also includes an example activity to experience the creative process in designing packaging.
This document describes a program to develop collective intelligence among an executive team by addressing problems of keeping up with new information and knowledge. It involves customized education on management topics combined with converting relevant material into actionable strategies. The program aims to help executive teams address issues like information overload, determining relevance of new ideas, improving organizational learning beyond individual knowledge, and ensuring knowledge is converted to strategies before decaying. It provides an example process of distilling literature on a topic like innovation, assessing relevance, and developing an innovation strategy tailored to the company's goals and interdependencies. The overall goal is for the executive team and company to learn faster than competitors and effectively respond to major changes.
This document discusses the importance of effectively communicating innovation ideas, especially "everyday innovation" ideas generated by employees. It argues that many innovative ideas fail because they are poorly communicated, not because they lack merit. It recommends that organizations develop a communication framework to help employees of all levels clearly present their innovative ideas. This can help level the playing field so the best ideas, regardless of who proposes them, have an opportunity to be heard and adopted based on their own merits. Developing employees' communication skills and ensuring a process for sharing ideas can significantly benefit an organization by capturing the potential of innovation from all levels.
The document discusses approaches for enterprise education and focuses on creativity, innovation, and opportunity recognition. It explores defining key concepts like creativity and innovation, assessing students in enterprise education, and using techniques like problem-based learning and bisociation. The document also advocates asking thoughtful questions to stimulate creative thinking and connecting ideas in new ways.
ACTION LEARNING, KNOWLEDGE CREATION AND ORGANISATION LEARNING Jamil Nahra
Paper work presented by PROFESSOR JEFF GOLD @ the 1ST ACTION LEARNING FORUM in Dubai, 29/05/2014, Organized by The Emirates Center for Organizational Learning of the Emirates Identity Authority
The document summarizes research on the importance of including positive examples and role models when teaching business ethics. A study found that focusing only on negative examples of unethical behavior can actually decrease ethical intentions among students by making business seem inherently flawed and reducing students' belief that they can make a difference. In contrast, including positive role models inspired students, empowered them, and increased their belief that ethical behavior in business is possible and that their actions matter. The research suggests ethics education needs a balanced approach of positive and negative examples to foster ethical behavior.
Here are the key points about risk management in technology intensive organizations:
- These organizations use an analysis approach to forecast risks associated with tasks and processes used to produce goods and services. This helps identify potential risks upfront.
- Schedule compression analysis is used to evaluate key barriers and bottlenecks. This helps develop plans to achieve objectives more efficiently by addressing risks that could cause delays.
- Traditional management may not employ formal risk forecasting and proactive risk management techniques. Technology organizations recognize the need to systematically analyze and plan for risks due to the complex nature of their work.
- The analysis approach allows organizations to maintain smooth workflows by considering risks at each stage of production. Issues can be mitigated before causing disruptions.
The document discusses creating a company of business people by giving all employees a comprehensive understanding of the business realities and strategic priorities. It argues that lack of communication is not the main problem, but rather mistrust and fear between leadership and employees. The solution is to use Root Learning's process to help employees understand the business challenges on their own through visualization, strategic dialogue, and group discussion. This builds shared knowledge and commitment to make necessary changes across the organization.
This document summarizes notes from an innovation workshop held at the University of Lagos Guest House in Nigeria.

This document attempts to differentiate between competence, capability, and capacity as they relate to innovation. It provides definitions for each term:
- Competence refers to an individual's knowledge and skills. It relates to the question "Who knows how?".
- Capability is a collaborative process through which competences can be applied and exploited to achieve goals. It relates to questions like "How can we get things done?" and "How easily can we access and apply the skills we need?".
- Capacity is about having enough resources or volume to accommodate needs. It relates to questions like "Do we have enough?" and "How much is needed?".
The document cautions against confusing these terms
Mark Edwards, Leadership and Strategy Programme Director at London Business School, considers ways of improving the stickiness of learning by examining a range of aspects, from the desire to learn to the ways the learned lessons can be applied.
Mark will be hosting a webinar, on 7 October, in which he will explain how you can embed effective learning and understand employees’ motivations. Sign-up: http://www.changeboard.com/events/exclusive-changeboard-webinar-the-stickiness-of-learning-how-to-ensure-your-learning-strategy-makes-an-impact
This document discusses the key drivers of innovation in organizations. It identifies 10 main drivers: 1) Corporate culture, 2) Individuals, 3) Teams, 4) The enterprise, 5) Processes, 6) Offerings, 7) Psychological climate, 8) Physical environment, 9) Economic environment, and 10) Geopolitical culture. It explains how each of these factors can encourage and motivate innovation in an organization when supported and leveraged effectively.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

WAS EVER PAID ME WAS WHEN
SOMEONE ASKED ME WHAT I
THOUGHT, AND ATTENDED TO MY
ANSWER.‖
- HENRY DAVID THOREAU
4. LET‘S GET STARTED THINKING
•
Guideline #1: This session will be an interactive practice and
learning experience in which your facilitator will engage you in
active thinking and problem solving practice individually and
collectively. So, I want you to participate fully and actively by
sharing your stories, thoughts, ideas, and reflections because the
practice in this session-workshop is ultimately about connecting
thinking and problem solving that yield ideas for real-time
business activity.
•
Guideline #2: This session and exploration together, we will see
one or two short videos related to a fast changing world and
environment where science and business is going, and we will
engage in thinking role plays, and explore together via individual
and group activities contained inside The Innovative Problem
Solving Workbook.

7. THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING FOR FUTURE
INNOVATION PRACTICE AND EXECUTION FRAMEWORK
•
Our activity during this session at the MLMS focused on selected Innovation
Practices for the Execution of ideas, approaches, knowledge and skill in Business.
•
In our exploration, we engaged in Reflective Thought Practice linked to
Experiential Applications and activities toward a better understanding of Execution
for Innovation.
•
In this workshop, the premise and approach is that 21st Century Innovation
Practice is essential for being mid-level managers who are able to adapt
mind, thought and ideas toward achievable business oriented outcomes that are
essential to sustain one‘s future and viability as a manager.
•
The operating premise is why should you think about practicing, enhancing and
expanding your thought capacity to become more deliberate and effective in the
execution of innovative ideas, and as a contributor who creates and is better able
to sustain new and future value in the organization.
8. INTRODUCING NEW BUSINESS IDEAS, WHAT
ARE CURRENT TRENDS?
•
In 2013 the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)
issued a first-ever international comparison of the labor force in 23 industrialized
nations which shows that Americans ages 16 to 65 fall below international
averages in basic problem-solving, reading and math skills. Paul Petersen, coauthor of Endangering Prosperity, a book on education and international
competitiveness offers that the results are ―quite distressing because other
countries have been catching up for some time.‖
•
Stanford Business School‘s Jespar Sorenson says ―truly innovative products are
the ones that bring ideas across categorical boundaries. But doing so creates
potential confusion, and people devalue what confuses them. The
solution, difficult as it may seem, is to adopt a crisp identity instead.‖ A primary
example of this is the company ZipCar that Avis Budget Group now owns.
Imagine if Avis Budget Group had tried to invent the concept from the start. It
likely would have been an uphill climb because consumers existing mental model
for ―Avis‖ is tied up in associations with-car rental counters, liability forms, tack-on
prices for gasoline, and airports.
Among The 2013 Thomson Reuters Top 100 Global Innovator Companies are: #’s 1-6 3M Company

9. THE LIVING ORGANIZATION – THE PHYSICS
•
Building on the foundation that a corporation is a complex living
entity that follows the rules of all complex living systems, let‘s
create a new model, a map that includes all the old terrain and
adds the necessary details that enables us to navigate the terrain
of the 21st century. This new map explains how The Living
Organization™ directs and transforms the flow of energy into
desired results.
•
The following diagram shows these energy flows and the role
each organizational element plays in the transformational
processes.

14. Biology and Zoology are considered by many to be rich sources of analogies from
which significant inventions can be derived when one thinks about Innovation. One of
the most celebrated cases is the invention of the telephone. As Alexander Graham Bell
wrote: ―It struck me that the bones of the human ear were very massive as compared
with the delicate thin membrane that operated them; and the thought occurred to me
that if a membrane so delicate could move bones so relatively massive, why should not
a thicker and stouter piece of membrane move a piece of steel (associative thinking).‖
Thus, was the telephone conceived.
Here is a list of animals and the inventions they exemplify. In groups of five -10 match
the animal with the invention.

15. MORE OPTIONS FOR PROBLEM SOLVING
PRACTICE
•
Accessing Crucible Knowledge to Share — Knowledge from meaningful
experiences in the workplace may stem from adversity, and can be illuminating
because a crucible is a transformative opportunity to learn and sharpen one‘s
skills because innovation minded practice trumps talent alone.
•
Collaboration As Strengths Based Practice — As an individual and manager
your talents are enduring and unique. Moreover, for an activity to be a strength
you need to be able to do it consistently and well. Second, you do not have to
have strength in every aspect of your role to excel. Third, you most often will excel
by maximizing your strengths, i.e. delivering on vision, inspiring others, initiating
and sustaining change.
•
Results Based Thinking and Problem Solving — Exceptional collaboration
behaviors can lead to outstanding results because the quality of shared leadership
can sustain results, and allows organizations to align changing strategies, and
builds confidence with employees, customers and investors.

Engaging Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership - James Kouzes and Barry
Posner offer as leadership practice to Model the Way (It‘s your behavior that wins
you respect, align actions with shared values); Inspire a Shared Vision (imagine a
highly attractive future for the organization and you are there); Challenge the
Process (Taking on a innovative new product, a cutting-edge service, a startup, or something groundbreaking); Enable Others to Act (what is done and
accomplished requires a team effort, trust, and strong relationships); Encourage
the Heart (being genuine in your care of others, celebrate, build community).
•
USE EQ & IQ - Daniel Goleman, & Richard Boyatzis contend and report out that
the rules for work are changing as people in organizations are being judged by a
new yardstick; not just how smart you are by IQ, but by how you handle yourself
and others—to which I add is further influenced by globalization and talent needs
as key contributing factors. In brief, EQ is more broadly focused on whole life that
includes work.
