G. Orchestrated Organisational Ingenuity

Orchestrated Organisational Ingenuity is the blueprint for organisations to follow in implementing Orchestrated National Ingenuity.

Many organisations will have already implemented some of the steps in the blueprint – it is merely an option-rich framework for securing dramatic improvement in organisational performance from within recession conditions, into the new, post-recession era.

The high-level framework

1. Allocate time and/or resources (depending on organisational size) to developing and implementing the following steps in a considered and effective way.
2. Develop a first-draft intervention strategy, using the Kiwi Ingenuity Framework, in order to create/confirm the engagement framework.
3. Take the obvious, conventional prerequisite actions to contain costs and capitalise on whatever demand already exists.
4. Implement the basic functional area productivity solutions to satisfy the most accessible prerequisites in short, quick cycles. This will have a significant impact on organisational ingenuity, by enabling people to experience counter-intuitive ways of doing things on very low risk.
5. Develop and implement tailor-made counter-intuitive productivity solutions to the less accessible prerequisites – in short, fast cycles, engaging the rest of the organisation as required.
6. Transform the entire organisation, over-time, into a highly synergistic ingenuity organisation, by engaging people more and more deeply in the innovation process, using simple, option-rich frameworks.
