Deliver faster and be responsive
Do more with the same.
The capability to deliver high value products and features better, faster and happier. In order to deliver great customer experiences to the most valuable markets, organisations must be capable of fast organisational learning supported by less painful delivery.
Effective delivery depends on lean execution, immediate response to feedback and minimising waste, wait and defects.
Product Innovation
Experiment and learn faster.
The capability to innovate services, products, and find new business models.
We are in an era of declining return on assets and accelerating corporate turnover. Organisations that continuously test and innovate products, services, and business models to drive disruption will seize market share and produce higher shareholder returns more consistently and for longer.
More than ever, the ability to rapidly measure, adapt, and optimize these variables will drives businesses’ success.
Organisational adaptability and culture
Working in the digital age.
The capability to adapt the organisation and culture including leadership alignment, policies, structure and key measures.
To become innovators and disruptors, companies must innovate their organizational and leadership approaches, reduce bureaucracy, and evolve leadership styles and cultures. Learning organizations apply ‘Red Team Thinking’ to identify the riskiest assumptions in their strategies and approach and they validate early and frequently.
Leadership effectiveness
Leaders applying Red Team Thinking.
Leadership agility is the ability to take “reflective action” – to step back from one’s current focus, gain a broader, deeper perspective, and then refocus and take action that is informed from this wider perspective. As Leaders become more agile, their capacity for stepping back deepens and broadens, and the frequency with which they move through cycles of reflection and action increases.
Red Team Thinking gives Leaders and organizations the tools they need to create winning strategies and make better decisions in today’s complex and rapidly changing VUCA world.
