Can a culture of change improve innovation?<\/strong><\/a> — from washingtonpost.com by Jim Whitehurst, president and chief executive officer, Red Hat<\/p>\n

Excerpts:<\/em><\/p>\n

Plenty of executives lay awake at night wondering how they can keep up with the waves of\u00a0digital disruption<\/a><\/u>\u00a0that continue to shake every industry out there. Everyone wants to know how they can get their organization to innovate better and faster.<\/p>\n

But this is more than a technology problem. Businesses can\u2019t simply buy a solution off the shelf. Instead, leaders need to encourage people to think and act differently. And to do that, they need to rethink the way they organize to get work done.
\n…
\nBut the pace of digital transformation today has made Industrial Era thinking and planning obsolete when it comes to overcoming the challenges an organization faces.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Automation requires processes to change; digital transformation requires people to change.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019re talking about building an organizational culture that embraces innovative thinking and behaviors. But you can\u2019t change culture overnight, because it\u2019s an output, not an input.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

2. Prescription must be replaced by\u00a0enablement…<\/strong><\/p>\n

3. Execution must be replaced by\u00a0engagement…<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Organizations today need to spend less time charting long-term courses and more time fostering teams configured to respond effectively to constant change.<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
