Boring as a strategy…
As organisations get bigger, change becomes harder.
There are more people to involve in every decision, customers who don’t want change, and managers who like things as they are.
This is a reality.
But the need for change is also a reality.
Right now we’re seeing hospitals at breaking point, but we aren’t seeing change.
‘Boring’ is a strategy. It’s the strategy of not changing.
Spinning off an independent organisation tasked with innovation, without the confines of the mothership, is also a strategy.
But it takes more courage.
