MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
2. Ground Rules
• Everybody’s input is equally valued
• Respectfully listen & be patient – things may feel slow
for some but challenging for others
• Participate but don’t dominate
• Talk one at a time in plenary
• Avoid side-conversations
• Mobile phones on silent
• Feel free to ask questions during plenary but be aware
of time constraints
• The workshop is an information gathering exercise and
not a decision-making forum.

Mission Statement for the Protected Area Network
1. Create a Protected Area Network that sustains and protects the natural, social, economic and
cultural values of Mauritius.
2. Implement a broad-scale programme of ecological rehabilitation and restoration for the
persistence of the native species of Mauritius and the resilience of its ecosystems.
3. Provide opportunities for people to discover, enjoy and appreciate the country’s unique nature
and to derive benefits from its protection.
4. Ensure the maintenance and provision of ecosystem services and critical ecological functions
to enable Mauritius to withstand environmental pressures such as drought, severe storms and
climate change in the face of a growing and urbanising population.
5. Engender a love of nature and a deeper understanding of the importance of our critical
ecosystems and biodiversity.
6. Set an outstanding example in Mauritius that advances global sustainability initiatives and
contributes to a habitable Planet.
60. Protected Area Network Expansion Strategy
• Strategic Objective 1: To establish, expand and maintain a Protected Area
Network (PAN) that is representative of ecosystems, safeguards the unique
biodiversity of Mauritius and adequately protects its natural assets.
• Strategic Objective 2: To apply effective institutional arrangements and
ensure continuous and adequate capacity building for the purposes of
implementing the Protected Area Network Expansion Strategy (PANES), as
well as for updating and further elaboration as may be needed.
• Strategic Objective 3: To develop, amend and otherwise continuously
improve the legal framework that supports the establishment, maintenance
and sustainable use of the Protected Area Network (PAN).
• Strategic Objective 4: To develop tools and safeguards to support and
ensure the efficient and effective management of all the different Protected
Areas that make up the Protected Area Network (PAN).
60
61. Protected Area Network Expansion Strategy
• Strategic Objective 5: To develop innovative programmes and mechanisms
to expand the Protected Area Network (PAN) to include all key biodiversity
areas as far as possible, including certain private lands.
• Strategic Objective 6: To secure funding and to maintain the PAN in its
present and future forms as expressed in the PAN Vision.
• Strategic Objective 7: To restore indigenous ecosystems as essential
components of the country’s ecological infrastructure for water, biodiversity
and other ecosystem services.
• Strategic Objective 8: To unlock opportunities that will bring tangible and
intangible benefits to Mauritius, including nature-based tourism, local
economic development, especially in the rural areas, and leisure areas and
spiritual havens. This includes enabling civil society to mainstream
biodiversity and conservation into business practices.
• Strategic Objective 9: To disseminate biodiversity information and good
practises and influence political and economic decision-makers in favour of
biodiversity and conservation priorities for a habitable Planet.

Draft a KMF outline including
recommended pilots
Adapted from Barnes & Milton (2015): If you are a manager and you want to get something done in your organization, you need to set three things in place:
• First, you have to make it very clear what you want done
• Second, you have to give people the tools and the training to do it
• Third, you have to check that they’ve done what you asked them to
Imagine if the staff in your organization knew that they had to do a knowledge budget (or other learning and planning activity) at the start of any significant piece of work. Imagine they knew that they would have to do knowledge tracking as the work continues, and balance the knowledge books by capturing their learning at the end of the job. Imagine that they had the tools to do these activities, and the training to use the tools, and also that management would be checking to see that they had done what they were supposed to do. Whether or not the individual employee believes KM is a good thing, such a governance system will ensure that it happens.
Adapted from Barnes & Milton (2015): You must work in all four quadrants: Many organizations that fall into the trap of focusing exclusively on one quadrant. They buy a microblogging tool, for example, and expect it to deliver KM all on its own. Or they focus on wikis and blogs (both within the push quadrant) and find that lots of knowledge is published, but very little used. Or they invest in state-of-the-art search technology, but find that the key knowledge has never been captured in the first place.
Chart of company growth cycles . In the 20th century the average cycle took 75 years which meant that you could start and end your career in the same company and never live through any major reinvention, by 2000 that cycle had shrunk to 15 years, and today it is an average of 7 years which means that we have to start reinventing our company every 3.5 years. The secret to success is starting a new growth cycle before the old cycle expires (Nadya Zhexembayeva Tedx https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4kySpcdvFg)
Kodak was a dominant force in photography for more than a century through its manufacture of film but it failed to adapt to digital photography despite the fact that Steve Sasson, a Kodak engineer, invented the first digital camera in 1975
Pan American World Airways, commonly known as PAN AM was the world’s largest airline from 1927 until its collapse in 1991. There were a number of reasons for its demise including some high profile crashes and terrorist incidents notably the bombing of PAN AM Flight 103 above Lockerbie, Scotland in 1988.
Woolworths stores were found in most high streets in British towns in the Twentieth Century but the company went bankrupt in 2008 closing 800 stores and threatening 30,000 jobs. Woolworths failed to adapt to the growth of large supermarkets who diversified into non-food items and the rise of high street rivals.

From: 70% of Change Management initiatives fail – REALLY? By Ron Leeman
McKinsey and Company … A recent survey of business executives indicates that the percent of change programs that are a success today is… still 30%.
IBM … Nearly 60 percent of projects aimed at achieving business change do not fully meet their objectives.
Harvard Business Review … The brutal fact is that about 70% of all change initiatives fail.
Forbes/Towers Watson … A new study by Towers Watson has found that only 25% of change management initiatives are successful over the long term.
Connor Partners … Change practitioners have some culpability for the atrocious 70% failure rate of change initiatives.
Handout given with the ROI Figures featured in subsequent slides
Siemens, in 2001, claimed that their ShareNet KM system added $122 million in sales against a cost of $7.8 million; a 15-fold return
Caterpillar claimed total savings of $75 million in the period 2003– 2008 from its communities of practice, against the original investment of $2.5 million; a 30-fold return on investment.
Shell claimed an annual value of $200 million in value from their online communities of practice, against an annual cost of $ 5 million. ROI is therefore 40-fold.

Our tendency to get distracted
Some reasons for impulsiveness extracted from the June 2016 interviews
Using the example of the 1989 Tour de France in which Greg Lemond of USA beat Laurent Fignon of France by 8 seconds. Fignon had lead Lemond by 50 second going into the final time trial but lost the time to his American rival by his failure to embrace new technology (triathlon handlebar extensions and aerodynamic helmets) despite the fact that both innovations had been in use for some years.

Three implementation strategies:
Adapted from Barnes & Milton (2015)
The white arrow represents getting there in one step— planning a framework, and then rolling it out across the whole organization. This is a high risk strategy. You only get one shot at the framework design, and if you get it wrong, it may be permanently wrong. Also you will be beginning the roll-out with no history of success within the organization, which makes change management difficult.
The grey arrow represents rolling out parts of the framework one by one across the whole organization (Circle A) until the framework is complete. This also is a high risk strategy. You may devalue the whole KM implementation if you introduce something that adds no value.
The black arrow represents a piloted implementation. At Circle 2, you test elements of the framework one by one, locally in the organization, to make sure they work in the organization context, and to tailor them until they do. At Circle C, you pilot the whole KM framework in one part of the organization, to make sure the complete framework adds value to the organization, and you tailor it until it does. Finally, (Circle D) you roll out this tried, tested, and piloted framework across the organization as a whole.
