Recognize the Challenge
“We’re not interested in process, we want results.” - George W. Bush
August 14, 2006

Never sell the product. Sell the results.

“Process improvement is like diet and exercise. Almost
everyone wants to be fit, but few want to put in the
necessary effort.”
Just another way of saying…
“Most want to go to heaven, but few want to die to get there.”
Related to the principle of least effort…
Attempting to get the most out of life for the least effort is
simply human nature.
The Spirit is Willing, but the Flesh is Weak

Success in Challenging Environments
“Process is the enemy of innovation.”

Risks aren’t Always Apparent
“You’ll always be too something to someone.”

Taking the 1st Step
Average leaders blame others. Exceptional leaders take responsibility.

3rd Order Ignorance – Lack of Process i.e. I don’t know a suitability efficient way to find out I don’t know that I don’t know something

You have options
By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection,
which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest;
and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
- Confucius

Why Cultures are So Resilient
• People are loyal to culture, not strategy
• Cultures generally survive tough times
• Culture is more efficient than strategy
• Culture is a differentiator
• Culture is a contrarian business strategy
• A brittle culture can doom an organization
• Cultural missteps are more costly than strategic ones
• Cultures can’t be easily copied
• Culture is very disciplined

Know Your Culture
http://artsfwd.org/4-types-org-culture/ Quinn, Cameron University of Michigan
• Clan oriented cultures are family-like,
with a focus on mentoring, nurturing, and
“doing things together.”
• Adhocracy oriented cultures are dynamic
and entrepreneurial, with a focus on risk-
taking, innovation, and “doing things
first.”
• Market oriented cultures are results
oriented, with a focus on competition,
achievement, and “getting the job done.”
• Hierarchy oriented cultures are
structured and controlled, with a focus on
efficiency, stability and “doing things
right.”

Choosing a Successful Path
“To lead people, walk beside them.
As for the best leaders, the people do not notice their
existence.
The next best, the people honor and praise.
The next, the people fear; and the next, the people hate.
When the best leader's work is done the people say,
‘We did it ourselves!’ ”
― Lao Tzu
