Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

II. Principles of being insightful
III. Application

3. Insights are profound human truths
specific about people, categories,
products, businesses, and brands
that are presented in a fresh
stimulating way.

5. INSIGHTS ARE ULTIMATELY WHAT PLANNERS
ARE JUDGED BY
better insights better creative ideas better business
Nice try.... but how
planning creative about another round
of development?
5
6. Insights are ways to demonstrate that
we planners make stuff, what a
campaign/engagement is built on and
out of, and reinforce why clients pay for
planning

7. PLANNERS SAY INSIGHTS ARE...
•“ A great revelation that produces great work”
•“Not merely an observation, it explains why rather than just observing that people do something”
•“It must be cause AND effect - insights prompt effect”
•“Insights....they’re the things that other people think of, then you immediately wish you had”

•Uncover a new way of thinking
•Make connections where there previously weren't any

17. FOCUS ON OBSERVATION
Observations are the starting points for insights
More obvious than insights
Sometimes more applicable than insights
Simple ways to start conversations
16
18. BUILD A NETWORK
The best way to develop
observations is to talk with others.
Create a network by talking to a
new person each week about
your observations. Go outside
your discipline or account.
17
19. TRIAL & ERROR BEATS THE LONG GENIUS
>
BEST CASE SCENARIO WORST CASE SCENARIO
•Finding observations and insights is journey •Even the Lone Ranger had a partner
that takes patience, time & persistence
•One must embrace failure & fail harder •Working solo encourages swinging for fences
•Kindergarteners can beat the MBAs •The most dangerous idea is the one not shared
18
20. CATALOG EVERYTHING
Insights can sell the planning journey, but first it
must be documented
•Creating a living breathing document (or space) can
capture the essence of the problem, thoughts & more
developed thoughts
•Cataloging helps us avoid under & overcooking things
•Allows us to quickly step back and see resonant
thoughts
•Quickly bring others up to speed
•Sometimes need to see all the things you could have
done to know where to go next
19
21. USE PROVOCATIVE STIMULUS
>
You shouldn’t be
using this sort of
…But that’s the
…zzzzzz… world we live
…yeah right… argument. It’s not
ethical… in…

22. LEVERAGE OBSERVATIONS IN YOUR OWN LIFE
Talk to the people you know. Thats Books don’t just furnish a room -
the way good copywriters have they form persistent memories,
always done it. (blasphemy) determine imagination, and display
our connection to histories and
cultures.
Source:Paragraph Project 21
Source: Simon Silvester YR
23. CREATE OBSERVATIONS WHEN NEEDED
Insights don’t have to be expensive or come with 8-week
timelines
To understand the meaning of
beauty today, one agency simply
asked women to tell them.
To understand the personalities of different luxury car
owners, one agency simply photographed and analyzed
their personal license plates.

24. THE HIDDEN TRUTH SPEAKS LOUDEST
“Americans really prefer big, yet
sporty cars. They like quality made,
large cars that have strong engines
and big bodies to help them feel
safe.”
Americans have a love affair with driving.
While they put safety first for their families,
what they really want is vehicle that can
own the road. Its really about feeling in

control in a way that matches your 23
26. PRINCIPLES OF BEING INSIGHTFUL
1. Observations are more plentiful and actionable
2. Create a network to stress test thoughts
3. Trial & error always beats a lone genius
4. Catalog everything as looking back is equally important
5. Provocative stimulus leads to better insights
7. Leverage insights in your own life
6. Create observations if you must
7. The hidden truth always speaks the loudest
8. Seek universal beliefs that are simple and resonant
25
39. DIG DEEP FOR FACTUAL SUPPORT POINTS
90% OF FOOD GROWN
IN ETHIOPIA DOESNʼT
FEED ETHIOPIANS
38
40. NO ARMY IS AS POWERFUL AS AN IDEA
WHOSE TIME HAS COME
39
41. TEST IT
Write the insight on a blank sheet of paper with no
supporting words.
IS IT STILL INTERESTING?
40
42. SOME PARTING THOUGHTS...
•Observations are the starting points to insights
•Its crucial to use evidence to track and share thoughts with others as you build insights
•Never rest on an observation, use growing evidence to continually validate insights
•Trial and error always leads somewhere better
•Determine the real audience when considering presenting insights
•Keep it simple, say one thing
•Create reality rather than just reflecting it
•Get them to do something (creatives and consumers)

\n
insights - capacity to gain an accurate and deep intuitive understanding of a person or thing\n\n
\n
Insights are important!!!!! because strong insights often lead to great work.\nNot all the time, but enough to make them worthwhile\n\nAnd if we dont, it often comes back on the creative, or the planner\n\nevidence is crucial\n\n
\n
“A penetrating observation about consumer behavior that can be applied to unlock growth” - Diageo\n\nNot an observation, it explains why rather than just observing that people do something\nAt must be cause and effect - insights prompt effect\nInsights... they’re things that other people think of, then you immediately wish you had\n
And its not just for us or the clients its for creatives\n\nits something that needs a degree of ‘perceptive’ in there, can’t be too obvious - it just cant be an observation\n
\n
This is by no means an exhaustive list, and may contain some areas that dont make for particularly good insights, but hey you never know\n\nConsumers - Behaviors, attitudes, emotions, archetypes\nCultural - collective human intellect, analogs, cultural trends\nFuture - Trends, and emerging thoughts, behaviors and themes\nProduct - Usage, truths or design\nBrand - perceptions, truths around a brand\nMarket - competitive dynamics, category sciences, \nPurchase - buying habits\nUsage - engagement & usage patterns\nOwner - characteristics of ownership\n\nCan have a combination of both of these\n
\n
An insight is a great revelation that produces great work\n\nNo one understands or particularly cares about IT oursourcing. Bringing together information, ideas and technologies is a bit like herding cats.\n
its rarely on the surface\nFinding insights means digging deeper and discovering more\n

Good work often comes from a collection of insights\n\nWe talked about finding insights, but presenting insights is often just as undervalued\n\nDon&#x2019;t get too hung up on them, make sure the briefs are really clear and contain SOMETHING useful to creatives.\n\n
