The Politics of Change Impetus for change is likely to come from outside change agents. Internal change agents are most threatened by their loss of status in the organization. Long-time power holders tend to implement only incremental change. The outcomes of power struggles in the organization will determine the speed and quality of change.

Kotter’s Eight-Step Plan for Implementing Change
1. Establish a sense of urgency by creating a compelling reason (Vision & understanding) for why change is needed. 2. Form a coalition with enough power to lead the change. 3. Create a new vision to direct the change and strategies for achieving the vision. 4. Communicate the vision throughout the organization.

Kotter’s Eight-Step Plan for Implementing Change
5. Empower others to act on the vision by removing barriers to change and encouraging risk taking and creative problem solving. 6. Plan for, create, and reward short-term “wins” that move the organization toward the new vision. 7. Consolidate improvements, reassess changes, and make necessary adjustments in the new programs. 8. Reinforce the changes by demonstrating the relationship between new behaviors and organizational success.

Innovation Clue From IDEO Seven secrets for better brain storming 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Sharpen the focus ÎProblem statement Playful rules Number your ideas Build and jump The space remembers Stretch your mental muscles Get physical
Provide examples you saw on the video clip 64 CSE & Enterprise Systems Center Lehigh University
Roger N. Nagel © 2006
Sharpen the focus Clear problem statement needed ¾ Describe the problem not a solution idea » Don’t be to narrow in the description » Don’t focus on product modification » Describe the opportunity or problem you are addressing?
Be tangible without limiting possible solutions ¾ Helping bike commuters drink with out spilling or burning their tongues
Focus on need of customer not the company ¾ Know what you enable and ask how can we do it better
65 CSE & Enterprise Systems Center Lehigh University
Roger N. Nagel © 2006
Innovation Clue From IDEO Playful rules ¾ Facilitator is key » Capture ideas for the group Put them where they can be seen
» Don’t critique or debate ideas suggested Turn critiques off gently
» Bell for off topic comments
¾ Go for quantity of ideas » Encourage wild ideas
¾ Be visual » Use paper on walls, tables, etc 66 CSE & Enterprise Systems Center Lehigh University

Avoid These Brainstorming Mistakes 1.
The boss speaks first ¾
Constraints introduced
2.
Everyone gets a turn ¾
3.
Every thing must be patentable and made in our factory
Kills spontaneity and the natural process of feeding off ideas as you get inspired
Experts only please ¾
Bring in the people who have experience not expertise in theory, factory worker, consumer, need insight not just traditional expertise and theory

Avoid These Brainstorming Mistakes 4.
Do it off-site ¾ ¾
5.
No silly stuff ¾ ¾ ¾
6.
We want it to happen at work often, not just in special setting Off sites fine, but we need the innovation in the workplace as well Dumb and stupid filters always catch brilliant ideas Having fun makes brainstorming work better Let your mind wander off narrow path to real innovation
Write down everything ¾ ¾ ¾
If every one takes notes they turn off the stimulation of brainstorming Taking notes shifts focus to the wrong side of your brain Sketch and doodle, but don’t take notes
68 CSE & Enterprise Systems Center Lehigh University
Roger N. Nagel © 2006
Innovation Clue From IDEO Innovation Begins With an Eye ¾ Not market research, ¾ Not focus groups ¾ Go to the source » Not experts in the company » But the real people who use the product or some ting similar
