The new age economy is giving a candid  message to entrepreneurs:  This is critical as  the entrepreneurs are  leading the world’s 5th wave of exponential economic growth: Up until 1780, world economic activity was relatively flat, with the Gross World Product (all economic value creation worldwide) under US $200  billion for over 5,000 years. The world then went through exponential growth over 200 years from 1800 to 2000, doubling every 20 years, with Gross World Product growing from US $ 200  billion to  $ 40  trillion. The four waves of exponential growth have been: 1. The Industrial revolution 2. The race for oil 3. Corporate capitalism 4. Financial markets Each wave grew and fell in power over around 50 years each.  Each wave led to a global transfer of wealth. Each age changed all the rules. In the 15 years from 2000 to 2015, despite a dotcom crash and global crisis, Gross World Pr...

What is Design Thinking? It’s a practical way of solving problems  by "building up" ideas, with few, or no, limits on breadth during a "brainstorming" phase. This helps reduce fear of failure in the participant(s) and encourages input and participation from a wide variety of sources in the ideation phases. The phrase "thinking outside the box" has been coined to describe one goal of the brainstorming phase and is encouraged, since this can aid in the discovery of hidden elements and ambiguities in the situation and discovering potentially faulty assumptions. When design principles are applied to strategy and innovation the success rate for innovation dramatically improves. Design Thinking is a methodology used by designers to solve complex problems, and find desirable solutions for clients. Design Thinking draws upon logic, imagination, intuition, and systemic reasoning, to explore possibilities of what could be, and to create desired ou...

We all talk about Change and display a whole lot of models and approaches. Its now evidently an open fact that Change management is in full-force across all industries, yet many leaders are unprepared to act upon and operationalize the requirements for change to avoid business disruption. For many organizations, preparedness begins at the top and this means that Leadership – across all levels – must have absolute clarity in purpose and focus; there also must be alignment in strategic philosophy and resolution goals. Unfortunately, many organizations are slow to change as the internal politics makes it difficult to reach consensus across all levels of leadership – even when the necessity for change is urgent. This is why many companies unknowingly lose momentum as they fail to change fast enough — allowing the marketplace and competitors to pass them by.  The result: valuable time is misspent, resources applied and money invested without the required outcomes to stay compet...

As shared by  Toby Rick  a change management specialist, a good communication strategy is at the heart of any successful change management process. It is important that an effective communication strategy is defined about the reasons, the benefits, the plans and proposed effects of that change. The communication strategy needs to address the key questions: What are the objectives? What are the key messages? Who are we trying to reach? What information will be communicated? When will information be disseminated, and what are the relevant timings? How much information will be provided, and to what level of detail? What mechanisms will be used to disseminate information? How will feedback be encouraged? What will be done as a result of feedback? The key to communicating is to use multiple platforms or media to communicate the same message. And you will probably have to communicate the same message three to six times, before the message is heard and under...

Sustainability seems to be widely now the norm. What exactly is put into action towards this is always a thing for debate.We at Infopace Management Pvt Ltd asked ourselves as to what do we do to demonstrate to the community on sustainability and at the same time see that the engagement is meaningful wherein it might give ample space for a vibrant community participation from all the various sections of the habitat. after deliberating this topic and scanning the environment we zeroed down on the possibilities that we can focus on the platform of Project Green Glow - an initiative for conservation of biodiversity in Yelahanka Bangalore North. We came up with the this novel idea of adopting the Allalsandra Lake which has been desilted recently by BBMP and partner along in its rejuvenation.This might bring a wide scope of activity and help us apply the ADKAR model of Change . With the leadership of Rotary Club of Yelahanka partnering with Rotary club of Lakeside, Nagarjuna Vidhya...
