more complex, the challenges our world faces today are many: globalization, hyper competition, digital disruption, geopolitical instability and adapting to the digital economy are a few examples. History is replete with examples of businesses and nations that failed to strategically plan for the future — and thus did not survive. Today, every organization & leader must develop innovative strategies to make this better future a reality. To shape the future that we want; business and government leaders must have new level of thinking, leadership and strategic competencies to envision a better future and devise innovative mechanism to reshape it & sustain it.

For centuries, leaders have sought to put strategy to work to gain an advantage over their rivals and competitors. Whether in battle, business, government services, politics or any other competitive endeavor, a superior strategy is what separates the winners from everybody else. This makes strategic leadership, thinking, planning, and execution the most important components of both public and private sector leadership in the ƖŎŸƋ�ÏåĹƋƚųƼţ��Ęå��ŅųĬÚ��Ƌų±ƋåčƼ��ƚĵĵĜƋ�±Ĝĵ�ĜŸ�ƋŅ�ĘåĬŞ�ÆƚŸĜĹåŸŸ�±ĹÚ�čŅƴåųĹĵåĹƋ�Ĭå±ÚåųŸ�ÆåÏŅĵå�åýåÏƋĜƴå�champions of their strategic undertakings.

The management revolution of the past century has now stalled. Today, organizations face new problems that lie outside the “performance envelope” of their tradition-encrusted, bureaucracy-infused management systems. Accelerating change, digital disruptions, rapid commoditization, and globalization are revealing the limits of our legacy management structures and processes. Fact is, most organizations ±ųŅƚĹÚ�ƋĘå�ƵŅųĬÚ�Ÿƚýåų�üųŅĵ�±�ŸåƋ�Ņü�ÏŅĵĵŅĹ�Ņü�ŮĜĹÏŅĵŞåƋåĹÏĜåŸŰóƋĘåƼ�±ųå�ĜĹåųƋĜ±ĬØ�incremental, and often inhuman. These disabilities, the product of an out-of-date management model, are rapidly becoming competitively and socially untenable. That’s why we need another revolution in management—one that is no less radical than the one that spawned the industrial age.

Professor Hamel will outline a radical, yet proven, process for reinventing management for the 21st century. He will show you how to “crowdsource” the challenge of management innovation in your organization, and how to build a portfolio

of bold management experiments. Most importantly, He will show you how to build “ the ultimate competitive advantage”—a capacity to evolve your management model faster than competitors will.

This is to an extent re-statement.

A “how to” for creating perpetually adaptive enterprises—ready for anything and prepared to turn on a dime. The very metabolism’ of the enterprise must be altered. In that vein, Re-Imagine! discusses wildly altered context (technology, China-India, geopolitical instability, etc.), adaptive skills and bold-breathtaking innovation (top-line focus rather than cost-cutting focus), way up the value-added curve (implemented “game-altering solutions” rather than “services”, “experiences” rather

than “transactions,” and much more), pursue Ripe & Enormous “new” markets (Women, Boomers & Geezers), radical use of IS-IT, a “Roster” of Weird & Wondrous & Entrepreneurial “Talent” engaged in “WOWProjects”, “Metabolic Leadership” (Passionate-Radical Leaders who instill a Discipline of Execution, a Quick Tempo-Adaptive Culture and an appetite to “Eat Radical Change for Breakfast”).

how to Future proof your organization

16 novembergary hamEL

Today, the most important question for any organization is “Are we changing as fast as the world around us?” Unfortunately, for many organizations, the answer is “no.” Everywhere you look, one sees incumbent organizations on the back foot, out-maneuvered by ambitious upstarts that have not yet succumbed to complacency and bureaucratic inertia.To stay relevant in this hyper-kinetic environment, organizations must build an “evolutionary advantage”, a capacity to change as fast as change itself. An organization with an evolutionary advantage never Ƌ±ĩåŸ�ųåüƚčå�ĜĹ�ÚåĹĜ±ĬØ�Ï±ŞƋƚųåŸ�ĵŅųå�ƋĘ±Ĺ�ĜƋŸ�ü±Ĝų�ŸĘ±ųå�Ņü�ĹåƵ�ŅŞŞŅųƋƚĹĜƋĜåŸØ�ŞųŅ±ÏƋĜƴåĬƼ�ųåÚåĀĹåŸ�ÏƚŸƋŅĵåų�åƻ-pectations, avoids unexpected earnings shocks, is relentlessly optimistic, changes before it has to, and ultimately invents its future. To build organizations that are adaptable-at-scale, we need to embed a new set of principles in our management systems. Drawing on lessons from some of the world’s most dynamic companies, In his practical and provocative Master Class, he will lay out a blueprint for building an organization that can out-run the future.

In this master class, Tom Peters will explain his manifesto to build an innovation machine in organizations.
