This document discusses how to implement a Lean Startup approach within a corporate environment. It begins by introducing the speaker and their background in innovation coaching. The agenda then outlines how to process Lean Startups in a corporation, use Lean Startup to build an innovative organization, and develop an entrepreneurial mindset among employees. The core aspects of Lean Startup are discussed, including building, measuring, and learning through customer feedback loops. The presentation emphasizes validating learning through data and observation, and seeing entrepreneurship as a management practice open to anyone in a company. It provides a process for Lean Startups within corporations that incorporates design thinking and experimentation to minimize risks through customer-centric learning.
The document summarizes key learnings from interviews with executives from innovative companies like Google, Philips, and Diageo about how to foster innovation. Some of the main points are: most successful innovations come from exploring small ideas rather than focusing on big ideas; innovative companies encourage innovation from all employees, not just those in certain roles; transformational innovators focus first on creating a great product rather than making a strong business case; innovation takes 3-5 years to gain traction in markets and requires significant time, resources, and determination; and innovative companies make trying new things the default rather than waiting or striving for perfection.
Aubrey Smith, early member of GE’s FastWorks initiative, will leverage her experience working with large, F500s on innovation transformation to talk through what it takes to drive a large-scale change within a complex enterprise. During this session, the audience will have the chance to work with expert coaches on exercises focusing on Portfolio Management (believe it or not, everyone has an innovation “portfolio” to govern) and Cultural change.

This document discusses what enables some companies to thrive in uncertain times while others do not. It describes "10xers" as companies that beat their industry index by 10 times. While 10xers are often seen as risk-takers and visionaries, the reality is different. 10xers succeed through "10x leadership" which includes having fanatic discipline, showing empirical creativity through experimentation, living in productive paranoia through planning for contingencies, and having a level 5 ambition for the company's success rather than their own. Key practices of 10x leadership include having clear performance markers, experimenting through low-cost tests, building cash reserves, and maintaining specific, methodical, and consistent operating practices tailored to each
The document discusses the concept of intrapreneurship and provides tools for practicing intrapreneurship using the principles of effectuation. It defines intrapreneurship as taking responsibility for innovation within a business. It encourages starting small projects based on available resources and forming partnerships to reduce risks. The document outlines the five principles of effectuation: 1) using available means, 2) focusing on affordable loss, 3) embracing surprises, 4) forming strategic partnerships, and 5) controlling controllable aspects. It emphasizes an iterative process of leveraging resources and surprises to jointly create new opportunities with low risks.

Key elements of transitioning from intrapreneur to entrepreneurAshish Jhalani
Every forward-thinking firm seeks to nurture its employees, and most will say they already do, but intrapreneurship goes further. It’s about embracing creativity and innovation, and enabling employees to turn ideas into something of real value to the business.
The document provides an overview of entrepreneurship and starting a startup. It discusses both the fantasy and reality of entrepreneurship, noting that most startups fail due to a lack of customers rather than a lack of product. It emphasizes treating the startup as an experiment and following an approach focused on customer discovery, validation, and creation to build a business with a viable product-market fit and avoid common pitfalls that cause many startups to fail.

Thomas Blekman developed an approach called Corporate Effectuation to help large organizations become more entrepreneurial and adaptive to changing markets. Corporate Effectuation draws from effectuation theory and provides tools to unleash hidden potential within companies and orchestrate innovation. Blekman believes that with the right mindset and tools, entrepreneurial behavior can be learned and cultivated even within large corporations through a disciplined and effectual approach.
The document discusses effectuation theory of entrepreneurship. It defines effectuation as a logic of thinking that helps entrepreneurs control an inherently unpredictable future by starting businesses. It contrasts effectuation with causal reasoning typically used by managers. Effectuation focuses on using a set of evolving means to achieve new goals, taking the future as unpredictable but controllable. It involves four principles - starting with available means, setting affordable loss limits, leveraging contingencies, and forming partnerships. An example is given of an entrepreneur who used effectuation principles like starting with an old motorcycle and borrowing land to start a chili powder business.

10 reasons why non business people need to design the new business worldSolvay Brussels School
The document outlines 10 reasons why non-business people need to design the new business world. It argues that complexity requires diversity in backgrounds to solve problems. Innovation involves new relationships and ecosystems, not just technology. The speed of change requires building the future rather than just planning. Disruptive innovation can happen overnight. Uncertainty is high so new skills are needed to deal with it. Creative and design thinking, beyond just research and planning, are key. People are needed who can see the big picture beyond just their specialty or function. Recruiters seek talents and entrepreneurial skills rather than just backgrounds. Rapid prototyping and learning from failures is important. New managers need creativity, strategy, and execution skills.
This document outlines an intrapreneurship training program to spark innovation within a company by having employees develop solutions for corporate social responsibility challenges.

Ten learnings on thinking small for big impact Wolff Olins
When we take on big challenges, like innovation, it’s tempting to jump to big
solutions. But sometimes, it’s the small things that matter most.
Small is in the detail. And small often requires big thought. But when
creating sustainable systems that support change there is power in small.
Here are ten (tiny) lessons we’ve learned at Wolff Olins
where thinking small can have a big impact.

The document discusses key insights from management expert Peter Drucker on innovation and entrepreneurship in existing large organizations. Some of the main points discussed include:
- Existing operations can be obstacles to innovation due to daily crises that demand attention, but large companies can overcome this easier than small companies with more resources.
- Organizations must be proactive about innovating or they will inevitably decline, especially in periods of rapid change.
- Innovation is work that requires specific policies around measuring performance, organizational structures, staffing, and incentives to encourage innovation.
- New innovative efforts should be organized separately from existing operations to avoid being burdened by existing metrics, rules, and priorities.
This document provides 5 tips for successfully scaling up a startup:

4. Simplify and standardize processes so the business can run without the founder.
5. Exercise restraint when hiring, spending, and expanding to avoid overextending resources during scaling.
What every creative entrepreneur should know shortnoel_bookkeeping
This document provides advice for creative entrepreneurs on starting and running a business. It discusses how to determine if you have the qualities needed to be an entrepreneur. It emphasizes the importance of having a clear purpose and vision for your business. It also outlines tips for staying innovative, managing finances, staying motivated, and the value of perseverance and patience. The author is an accountant who works with entrepreneurs and aims to help them feel confident in managing the financial aspects of their business.
Here are some ways Lean Startup principles can be applied:
- Build minimum viable products (MVPs) instead of fully developed products to get feedback early from real customers. MVPs allow for frequent iterations.
- Use the Build-Measure-Learn feedback loop. Rapidly introduce small changes, measure their impact on key metrics, and learn what works and what doesn't.
- Continuously validate hypotheses about problem-solution fit and business model fit with customers. Pivot as needed based on learning.
- Focus on actionable, validated metrics over vanity metrics to guide decisions. Metrics should demonstrate clear cause-and-effect relationships.
- Embrace failure and treat it as an opportunity to learn.
Winning isn't everything--but wanting to win is. Winning is a state of mind that embraces everything you do. Winning isn't everything, but the will to win is everything. “A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals. Winning is not everything, but the effort to win is. Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing
"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

1. HOW TO TAKE CALCULATED RISKS
“Many believe that innovation is the #1 differentiator for companies that succeed in turbulent times but this
is far from the truth. Companies only need to reach a threshold in innovation for survival & success in an
environment; becoming more innovative at this point doesn't make the companies great, what is required is
additional mix of creativity & discipline.” - Jim Collins
Creativity makes companies vibrant, however the problem comes when companies begin looking
outside during times of uncertainty and pick up solutions to implement without testing to see whether
it is useful.
To go forward, companies don't need courage to take great leaps ahead, but discipline to take orderly
steps in a controlled fashion. When you marry operational excellence with innovation you multiply your
creativity. These two steps describe how to do it:
1. Look within before asking without
Do not look to conventional wisdom (authority figures, peers) to set your course during times of uncer-tainty
nor should you primarily look to what people do or what pundits and experts say you should do.
Know what you need and try out your own solutions first.
2. Fire bullets first
The trick is to fire bullets, then based on empirical evidence of what works, focus your resources and
fire a cannon ball.
A bullet is:
• Low cost- the cost to implement the innovation is relative to the size of the enterprise, but
should be small enough not to affect the normal running of the business.
• Low risk- this doesn't mean a high probability of success, rather minimal consequences if it
doesn't work
• Low distraction- a few individuals within the organization may be distracted while implement-ing,
