I read a post the other day, fantastic in its reflection, Julen Iturbe, “Crisis, individuals and businesses.” Every day I read Julen, I thought more deeply about things and reality. We talked once on the phone and shared more email, but we have never gone beyond the “cyber-relationship.” Hopefully soon we can break one day the physical fence and get into conversation mode. Surely, someone you know will make us good common linker. It is one of the outstanding things to materialize this year. In addition, we share different approaches related to Open Innovation concepts and the role of people in organizations and society. While certainly, many nuances will other concepts.
This post earlier said, coincides in time with different conversations conducted with persons associated with the network and linked to the management, innovation and personal development within this complex society. Said the other day with Andres Perez, Personal Brand, the current situation, very much in line with what we said Julen. Moreover, I said Andres (context, words are approximate):
“I think we’re in a special moment: the structures and relationships person-organization-enterprise must change. What is clear is that it may be that after the crisis, things are back to being as they have been in recent years. “
I fully agree. The question is how to transform these situations without any doubt, do not seem ethical, inclusive and participatory. Julen speaks of “the business model as an example to replace.” And there is a request to shouts of a crowd, even numb, to a difference in diverse settings.
The social revolution is silent, but progress. The Network is creating new options now. They are, in many cases, more flexible alternative, more transparent, more effective. And more importantly, are generated by people with high-value talent (each his own). The structures will not last forever out there. Many will not return to them. Above all, talent and compete wait out taking advantage of new windmills, as my admiration Marc Alba.
Because for me the biggest problem is that of “wanting to do.” If the business changes become mere makeup, nothing will be learned. I agree that the model “enterprise” as we know it as hyper (or not) organization, is outdated. And we, all, find another model, not so dependent, is less rigid, more flexible for people with value (potentially all of us.)
In those organizations where decisions have been hierarchically fulfilled, carried out by semi-officials screwed into the pyramid and implemented under a mantra-make of “our assets, people (managed as” human resources “), changes must be profound. We must seize these periods of crisis to reshape (make a new model, change the composition of something) and create start-ups, “I do not mind the name you say, to grow with profound ethical values of community and responsibility.
In addition, not only put in the balance of the “reform” organizations. In addition, many people. Because deep down, it is true that are forming groups, teams, factories and departments. In addition, both transformations must run parallel. Surely, there will be winners and losers. Moreover, it is natural. Like life itself.
Many believe in the value of people, ethics, transparency, labor in value than in the presence of the multipertenencia, collaboration, and diverse talent and unique, the horizontal and humane treatment of common goals and shared responsibility. Many of the keys to the “business” of the future will go in that direction and no one says it is simple. The complexity will be created a new type of enterprise, smaller or more networked, less corporate culture and more “Branding Experience.” Above all enterprises (regardless of size), real, close and open to the world, the society we live, society is changing rapidly.
