A 5-step process for nearly anything

 A 5-step process for nearly anything!!!

"A 5-step process for nearly anything:

1) Explore widely. Find out what is possible.

2) Test cheaply. Run small, quick experiments. Sample things.

3) Edit ruthlessly. Focus on the best. Cut everything else.

4) Repeat what works. Don't quit on a good idea.

5) Return to 1."

Thinkers, Doers, Watchers: What is the right mix?

Thinkers, Doers, Watchers: What is the right mix?

A Critical Ratio That Every CIO or CTO Should Be Thinking About is What is the right mix for Thinkers, Doers, Watchers to have the right balance to drive technology results.

15% Thinkers, 75% Doers, 10% Watchers

Achieving a balanced organization requires redefining how work gets done and then aligning the roles and talent with the work. 

  • Take a clean-sheet approach to the technology operating model: Streamline the organization, ensure clear accountability, and fully embrace modern ways of working
  • Make transparency the default practice: Improve visibility of what work is being done, who is doing what, and how much is being spent 
  • Eliminate unnecessary work: Identify processes or forums that aren’t required and further eliminate manual work by aggressively pursuing automation
