Adapting Your Culture
Welcome to this week’s Intelligence Revolution Briefing. In our ongoing series, "Leadership in the Age of Intelligence: Navigating the Human-Technology Nexus," we continue to explore the intersection of human intellect and technological advancement. Today, we delve into why and how to adopt an innovative culture.
Embracing Innovation in a Digital World
In the July-August 2024 issue of Harvard Business Review, they highlight the need to shift culture in line with strategic objectives. They say, “If, for example, you seek to move from a culture of error elimination, consistency, and replicability (popular during the industrial era) to a culture of adaptability, innovation and empowerment (increasingly necessary in the digital age), you will need dilemmas that encourage your managers to change direction quickly, remove bureaucratic processes and take risks in the pursuit of fresh idea.” As automation and AI reshape workflows, fostering a culture of adaptability and innovation is crucial.
Consider:
Engaging in open dialogues about employee and customer experiences and the dilemmas they face to evaluate how the current culture fits.
Encouraging participation in collaborative initiatives, such as in-person Kaizen events.
