WHY INTEGRATION OF CONTINUOUS
IMPROVEMENT WITH LEAN AND INNOVATION
IS SO IMPORTANT
THE CHALLENGES OF THE NEXT DECADE

Short of Breath Syndrome
• … In many organizations today, we observe that managers are more and more breathlessness in their effort to continuously improve their competitivity…vs international competition!
• … Dr Feigenbaum, a famous quality guru, said a few years ago: I want to reassure you, it is only the warm-up period!
• The actual level of competitiveness is still low compare to the next 10-15 years!
Need for improvement and innovation!
3
Why we need innovation… now?
Your organization “X” achieved great progress over last years
•Sustain demand for your products
•Increased business
•Growth activities in USA market
•More significant power un your market
•Good business years; good EBITDAS
. . . But you’re still facing important challenges
•But you are still facing:
– Variation of CDN $ vs US $
– A cost of your raw materials
– Uncertain economy
– Growth level is diminishing
– Pression on prices
4
Why we need continuous improvement today? (example)
Raufoss achieved great progress over last years
• New type of product for automotive industry
• In a growth market share for aluminum
• Future demand is good
• Being present on European /North American and Asian market
• Raufoss has a technological advantage
• With good manufacturing performance (OEE)
. . . But you’re still facing important challenges
•Variation in money change rate
•Since 2008, more economic challenges…softer demand
•Old (steel) competitors back
•More pressure on the costs
5
…need to operate at full potential…
• Your company and your products Have very good reputation
• You have new well equipped lines, Canada, China, Mexico…
• You are innovative
• At first glance, you’ve slowed down in your continuous improvement
• You don’t operate at your full potential
It is why you need to be ahead of competition
• Need to have an improvement plan to achieve your full potential
• Need to improve your competitiveness
• Need to introduce “stretch targets”
• And turbocharge your continuous improvement

What is innovation?
• Innovation: (noun) a new idea, device, or method; the act or process of introducingnew ideas, devices or methods. Source: Merriam Webster Dictionary
• The word « innovation » itself descends fromthe Latin words in and novare, meaning ‘tomake new’.
19
What is needed??
Innovation is difficult for well-establishedcompanies. By and large, they are better
executors than innovators, and most succeedless through game-changing creativity than by
optimizing their existing businesses.

Lean Culture?...in Innovation
• Startups thrive in extreme uncertainty
• The future is unpredictable, customers face a growing array of alternatives, and the pace of change is ever increasing
• Startup do not use standard forecasts, product milestones, and detailed business plans.
30
« In a startup ‘fear of failure’ drives speed and urgency.
In a large company ‘fear of failure’ inhibitsspeed and risk. »
Steve Blank
31
Since 2008,
• We have entered in an economy of soft growth…
• …that is not good for prices.
• So you need the support of a powerful innovation strategy to stimulate your growth and increase your profit margins.
32
But Mainly Organizations will have to Reinvent Themselves
• Need to revisit your “why”
• Need to rework, redefine your mission.
• Improve the role and involvement of your employee:
– Needs of a new type of employee/partner…
– …Co-creator of your business of tomorrow(In partnership with your clients)
33
Main Options
1. Transfer of resources in surplus toward value added activities. Ex.: Transfer them toward new jobs with more value added…
2. Free new resources to invest in innovation.
3. Free “X” number of people and reinvest them in an innovative project outside of your organization.– Journey: Out without return
– Obligation to create their new future
34
Create an Innovative Project Outside/Detached from Main Organization/Head Office
• Type of mission toward Mars – aller simple
• Mobilize a team of 50 peoples to create a new business from scratch
• Locate them outside of existing places
• …make it a true mobilization project
35

The mobilization process…
• …Enables change quicker than what is typically expected…
• …Creates a real “shift” in the plant’s energy…
• …Highlights the emergence of new opinion leaders, who are extremely supportive of the process…
• …Can only be created around a uniting factor for all: The future / the plant’s survival (archetype)
• …Gradually moves you away from traditional modes of negotiation… Towards a model of cooperation.
37
Project over 18 – 24 months
• To create a new business with a new “WHY”…outside of your traditional activities
• To put positive pressure oh both side…– Your organization(-50 people)
– New business (+50 people)
• New business
• New offices
• As Saturn within GM– New rules
38
• New business modes of co-creation of new activities
• Imagine “the context of a journey toward mars - one way trip”

• Utilisation of mobilization type process to facilitate a new group or unity of people outside of the organization.A mobilization type would be very useful to channel the energies of the group. Redefining a new “why” would be very useful too.

There are many people with exaltedtitles who cannot spend $2000
without six signatures!

Innovation: We Must Involve Everyone!
•Safety 25 years ago, one in charge
•…Safety today, everyone’s job!
•Innovation today, one in charge…
• …Innovation of tomorrow, a structured process, advanced tools and everyone’s involvement…

Managing Innovation
• Management of innovation will be to the nextdecades what was quality management in years’80-’90
“Organizations that will survive will
have integrate innovation as their daily
activity!”

GLOBAL WARNING
Due to rapidly evolving global competition, CONTINUOUS INNOVATION will become as
necessary for business survival as the ability to read and write!
Do you have the infrastructure to continually adapt in your future business world?
How are you creating or directing your future business
world?
Innovation Age Law:If you’re not innovating you’re disintegrating!
90
CREATIVITY VS. INNOVATION
Creativity is idea generation
Innovation is implementing ideas in ways
that create economic value
We are all creators,
but innovation requires implementation
in your business world $
91
INNOVATION MANAGEMENT?
Corporate innovation management is where
quality management was 20 years ago
Billions spent on R&D each year with uncertain
ROI and time to market measured in years for a
typical company
Innovation is viewed as “R&D’s job”
Innovation requires broad & specialized knowledge
Lack of innovation operating system for all to use
Risk averse culture and physiological inertia
92
A high performance organizational system that
continually creates promising ideas or solutions and
transforms them into powerful new ways of creating
value and wealth
“Most companies lack an “Innovation Engine”
93
INNOVATION CULTURE
A company with an innovation culture has
institutionalized a reproducible, reliable, lean

Innovation: The new face of Quality
For more than 70 years, we increasingly pampared ourcustomers by giving them what they want. Customer nowassume that quality is a given……Quality has peaked from the line worker on the shopfloorto the corporate executives.In the future economy, we must deliver competitiveadvantage based on features rather than quality alone.The quality of innovation will become a differentiatingfactor……So our businesses will have to move from qualityimprovement to innovation improvement.

Organizational Models for Innovation Organizational Designs that Support Strategic Innovation & Growth
• For most organizations, the ability to deliver innovative solutions on a sustainable basis requires a strategic organizational architecture optimized for business growth.
107
Organizational Models for Innovation Organizational Designs that Support Strategic Innovation & Growth
• Ambidextrous Organizations – With “starved resources” a reality at many large
organizations, functional managers are often reluctant to allocate funding and staff to projects they perceive as risky, or that don’t help them achieve their short-term performance metrics. Ambidextrous organization designs create distinct units that have their own unique processes, structures and cultures that are specifically intended to support early-stage innovation. These units, often comprised of one or more innovation teams, reside within the larger parent organization but have been set up to support the unique approaches, activities and behaviors required when launching a new business.
108
Organizational Models for Innovation Organizational Designs that Support Strategic Innovation & Growth
• Venture Boards – Organizations such as Procter & Gamble, Johnson & Johnson,
Nokia, and Kimberly-Clark have established formal venture/advisory boards focused on bringing external perspectives inside, which ultimately drive innovation and guide strategic investments. Unlike a traditional advisory panel that provides industry and market-related advice, Venture Boards pull together the best thinking from both inside and outside the firm, all within a flexible structure that focuses on a single goal – to discover, evaluate and drive enterprise growth opportunities. Innovation Councils An Innovation Council is a small, cross-functional governance body of senior managers that enables cross-business / function / geography decision-making and coordination.

Organizational Models for Innovation Organizational Designs that Support Strategic Innovation & Growth
• Innovation Councils – An Innovation Council is a small, cross-functional
governance body of senior managers that enables cross-business / function / geography decision-making and coordination. Innovation Councils ensure that innovation-related activities in various parts of the organization are strategically aligned and coordinated, and are supported by appropriate processes and resources. From a leadership standpoint, council members’ roles involve removing internal roadblocks so that enterprise innovation can be effectively managed.
110
Organizational Models for Innovation Organizational Designs that Support Strategic Innovation & Growth
• Cross Group Solutions Teams – Cross Group Solutions Teams are self-directed teams of
individuals chosen from selected business units, who work together for a period of time and have a specific charter, often looking to identify new opportunities that combine the competencies of discrete businesses. These individuals, (technologists, consumer insights experts, marketers, manufacturing specialists, etc.) are assembled to help identify or pursue white space opportunities for which no single business group has formal accountability. In some cases the individuals relocate and reside within a single physical location for the duration of the project.
111
Organizational Models for Innovation Organizational Designs that Support Strategic Innovation & Growth
• Thought Leader Resource Networks – A Thought Leader Resource Network is an external network of
expert practitioners and thinkers that can tapped at any time. Thought Leaders within the network come from companies, universities, consulting firms, research institutions, contract manufacturers, think tanks, and other organizations. Often under a non-disclosure agreement or as-needed consulting contract, at a moment’s notice they provide specific knowledge, foresight or recommendations to specific issues, challenges and opportunities. Because they are all connected to their own knowledge networks, they can also become the doorway to additional strategic resources and relationships.
112
Organizational Models for Innovation Organizational Designs that Support Strategic Innovation & Growth
• Open Innovation Networks
– Proctor & Gamble has leveraged an Open Innovation strategy with great success in the past few years. While many companies have historically looked to their own R&D efforts to drive innovation and growth, Open Innovation proponents argue that today’s business logic has changed and that companies today must embrace new strategies for systematically tapping into ideas, resources and technology from the outside.

US National Security Issue China apparently reverse-engineered the JSF F-35 from
blueprints that Lockheed Martin found were stolen in 2009.
Lockheed Martin found “6 to 8 companies” among its
subcontractors “had been totally compromised – emails, their
networks, everything” according to Lockheed Martin chief
information security officer Anne Mullins.
China then made technology changes to the F-35 design.
Their J-31 does not have a STOVL (Short take-off and
vertical landing) version like the F-35 does.
This eliminates the need for a single engine, and allows the J-31
to have an improved weapon-bay volume, shape, heat signature,
and noise, according to Aviation Week & Space Technology
reports.
