Why Management is Dispensable

Work on the system, not the people.

Management is a mindset for the industrial age

  • Short comings of taylorism
  • Leadership > management
  • No system can be fixed by optimizing parts
Taylorism produces problems it tries to solve.

Management vs. leadership

Like "healing" vs. medicine at the end of medieval times

  • Greek knowledge was forgotten
  • Similar in management: a lot of quackery (books, consultants,...)
  • We have to take responsibility: let's not be quacks
No more bloodletting!

Stewardship as Tweaking

Not good stewardship

  • Next gigantic fix
  • another 7 years later...

Tweaking as ongoing process for fixing problems

especially for complex ones

  • tweak
  • do
  • analyse
  • repeat

Innovation Impact – What does it take

  • 4 games: real, intellectual, human, creation
  • impact = multiplication
  • spirit is power to multiplication

4 games of impact

  • real: will it work? (operational excellence)
  • intellectual: will it last? (direction and strategy)
  • human: will it happen? (connection)
  • creation: is it unique? (inventing solutions)

Fix spirit, not problem first

Think you can or you can't - in both cases you're right
