DISRUPTED OR
DISRUPTING?
Resolve Immix Annual Event
17th October 2017

Nassim Nicolas Taleb: The Black Swan
Rare and unpredictable events
Exponential, not linear worlds
Building ‘anti-fragile’
We see what we want to see

The World After Midnight
About fifteen years ago all the ‘Rules’ about how to run a business,
organization, or government successfully, were changed or deleted and a
completely new set of ‘Rules’ has been in operation ever since, which
means that we keep acting rationally in response to a world we recognize
and understand… but which no longer exists!
- Eddie Obeng

From cut-throat markets to wide open new markets

Top down,
efficiency and
operational
excellence
Nimble, not

Out-

From competing to creating

The future must be human.
“AI will push us to rethink basic assumptions about our sense of self…
we will have to revise what we think consciousness actually is.
Working alongside machines will also involve learning how to be better
at being human.”

1.  Get clear on the WHY of your business
2.  Deal with the fact that it is power to the people
3.  Stop trying to squeeze Game Changers into moulds
4.  Build innovators DNA like a muscle
5.  Have an honest conversation about FLOW – and then
try and work towards it
Challenge you with 5 human ideas

1. Get clarity on your WHY
What is your purpose, as an organisation?

Everyone is
talking
about
purpose

It is not this
kind of
buzzword
bingo that
nobody
understands

“Empowering
people to stay a
step ahead in life
and in business”
“Democratising
the skies”

The Golden Circle
"People don't buy what you do,
they buy why you do it."
- Simon Sinek
WHAT
Every organization on the planet
knows WHAT they do. These are
products they sell or the services
HOW
Some organizations know HOW
they do it. These are the things
that make them special or set them
apart from their competition.
WHY
Very few organizations know WHY
they do what they do. WHY is
not about making money. That’s
a result. WHY is a purpose, cause
or belief. It’s the very reason your
organization exists.

ü  start-ups & smaller organizations
ü  dematerializing the once physical
ü  creating new products and revenue streams in months, sometimes weeks
ü  use new organizational techniques that leverage exponential technologies
ü  putting linear companies & industries out of business
ü  MASSIVE TRANSFORMATIVE PURPOSE
ExO impact (or output) = 10x larger
EXPONENTIAL ORGANIZATIONS
Salim Ismail
Armies of employees or large physical plants? NO

TED: “Ideas worth spreading.”
Google: “Organize the world’s information.”
Tesla: “Accelerate the transition to sustainable
transportation.”
“My hope was never to build a company. I was driven by a
sense of purpose to connect people and bring us closer
together.” - Mark Zuckerberg

2. Power to the people
Recognise influence has changed, and
leverage it J

•  92% of people trust their friends advertising recommendations
•  Less than 40% of people trust advertising
•  We do not trust government agencies, NGOs, business,
corporate leaders or the media
We trust our friends. We trust our family.
We trust ‘someone like me.’

You must be actively involved with conversations that
advance your influence.
In today’s economy, influence is the new currency. Without
it, you are now more vulnerable than ever.

3. Stop trying to make your game changers
fit the mould
And recognise multiple contributions to game
changing outputs

A new
framework for
talking about all
types of talent:
THE GC INDEX
Creating game
changing
teams.

Innovation
Hub & Hero
Separate/
fragmented
Elitist
view of
talent
Profit /
progress
for some
Inclusive view
of contribution
Innovation
mindset
(Gen C)
Deliver
value
for
many
Innovation
as Usual

4. Build Innovators DNA like a muscle
Associating, Questioning, Observing,
Networking, Experimenting.

5. Think a little more about FLOW
FLOW (+ purpose) moves us from the
compete to the create of blue oceans.
Seek innovation-as-usual by adding FLOW
to game changing teams.

“The best moments in our lives are not the passive, receptive, relaxing
times… The best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is
stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and
worthwhile.”
– Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
FLOW: flow state: ‘wired in’, ‘in the zone’, hack mode, a
psychological state of full immersion, disappearance of time.

inspired employee = 3 x more productive than satisfied
employee
only 1 in 8 employees are inspired
– HBR (2017)

The world has an infinite supply of interesting problems. The world
also has an infinite supply of important problems.
I would love for people to focus on the latter.
- Andrew Ng (Baidu AI Group, Google Brain, Coursera)

So much great new thinking – so many practical tools!

The glass is not half empty, it is over-flowing.
Uncertainty of changing behaviors
is the best source of opportunity

.“You are the average of the 5 people closest to you”
The average of their wealth
The average of their attitude
The average of their vision
The average of their relationships
The average of their success
The average of their opportunities
Jim Rohn
