Why Companies Do Innovation Theater Instead of Actual Innovation - Harvard Business Review (No paywall) As organizations grow, they begin to prioritize process over product. That impedes real innovation. When organizations realize this, they typically respond in three ways: By hiring consultants to do a reorg (that’s “organizational theater”), adopt new processes such as hackathons to spur innovation (that’s “innovation theater”), or take steps to try to reform their bureaucratic behaviors (that’s “process theater”). Instead, what organizations need is an Innovation Doctrine that addresses culture, mindset, and process and guides the organization’s efforts to achieve real innovations.
The type of disruption most companies and government agencies are facing right now is a once-in-every-few-centuries event. Disruption today is more than just changes in technology, or channel, or competitors — it’s all of them, all at once. And these forces are completely reshaping both commerce and defense.

WorkWorkMichigan Primary Takeaways: ‘Uncommitted’ Makes Itself Heard  Since then, top White House officials told Arab American leaders in Dearborn, Mich., that they had regrets over how the administration had responded to the crisis. Mr. Biden called Israel’s military action “over the top.” And on the eve of the primary, he said he hoped a cease-fire agreement would be in place within a week. (The view from Israel and Gaza suggested Mr. Biden was being a bit optimistic.)

WorkIn Fight Over Bump Stock Ban, Lawyers Take Aim at Administrative State  On Wednesday, the Supreme Court will consider whether the Trump administration acted lawfully in enacting a ban that makes it illegal to buy or possess the part. It is not a case that turns on the Second Amendment. Rather, it is one of a number of challenges aimed at limiting the reach of administrative agencies — in this instance, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. WorkWildfires Prompt Evacuations in Texas and Oklahoma  There was no fire on the plant’s site or near its boundaries, but nuclear safety officials were responding, said Laef Pendergraft, a nuclear safety engineer for the National Nuclear Security Administration production office at Pantex. The plant has an on-site fire department, he said, speaking at a news conference.
Work‘Uncommitted’ Supporters Dance and Celebrate in Dearborn  By 10:30 p.m., more than 34,000 votes for “uncommitted” had been counted, with only about a quarter of the total vote tallied. Strong turnout in the Detroit area meant that the movement could win enough votes to send at least one delegate to the Democratic National Convention. WorkReports of Tornadoes as Severe Storms Move Through Midwest  By about 10:30 p.m. local time, the tornado watches in northeast Illinois had been downgraded to wind advisories as the tornado threat shifted southeast over Southern Illinois and Indiana and Kentucky, including Louisville. At about 10:45 p.m., the National Weather Service said that the severe weather threat had ended for Chicago. Roughly 9.8 million people in these areas were under a tornado watch late Tuesday night.
WorkTrump Defeats Haley in Michigan, His Sixth Straight Victory  As of 10:45 p.m. Eastern time, Mr. Trump had 67 percent of the vote to Ms. Haley’s 28 percent, while 3 percent had marked ballots for “uncommitted.” Mr. Trump said in a radio interview earlier in the day that he expected Ms. Haley would “lose like by 80 points.” WorkBritain's oldest brand undergoes 'millennial' redesign  Vin understands that bidding farewell to a logo that\'s over a century old is tough for consumers, even though most probably never even knew what the dead lion meant in the first place. That\'s because, as Vin puts it, when it comes to redoing logos that are so old and recognizable, an \"emotional connection with the consumer who has grown affectionate to the existing design\" is a tough, yet practically \"unavoidable\" loss. WorkAlan Bates: Toxic Post Office can't get its act together  Mr Bates\' two-decade fight inspired the recent ITV mini-series - Mr Bates vs the Post Office - which told the story of hundreds of sub-postmasters and postmistresses who were wrongly prosecuted after a faulty accounting system suggested money was missing from Post Office branches. WorkWorkFour Eye Ointments Pulled Because of Infection Risk  Early last year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the F.D.A. warned consumers to stop using two eyedrop products after they were tied to a drug-resistant bacteria strain found to have caused at least four deaths and vision loss in 14 patients. WorkWorkWorkMichigan primary win helps Trump build momentum ahead of Super Tuesday  He is scheduled to stand trial in New York court next month on criminal charges related to alleged hush money payments made to a porn star and others. Another criminal case, based on Trump\'s retention of classified documents after leaving the White House in 2020, is set to begin in federal court in Florida in late May. WorkWorkYulia Navalnaya, Seen in a New Light  By contrast, Yulia was Mr. Navalny’s obvious home base, anchoring him and embodying his hope for the future — his own personal future, and that of his native Russia. “If those in power see families as a weakness, they are mistaken,” Ms. Navalnaya once declared in a speech. “Family is the strength of any normal person — especially any real politician.” WorkWorkWorkOpinion | Nikki Haley’s Last Ditch  Even in South Carolina, nearly one-third of Republican primary voters would not vote for Trump if he’s convicted, according to a Saturday exit poll from Edison Research. In swing states, the numbers for Trump are even more daunting: Fully 53 percent of voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin would not vote for Trump if convicted, according to a Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll from January.

Whenever I speak up for the rights of the Palestinian people, I am subjected to a barrage of racist abuse, threats and hate … Threats to MPs’ safety are unacceptable, but we mustn’t allow this to be a pretext to demonise the Palestine solidarity movement specifically or attack our democratic rights more broadly. In a democracy, the right to protest, criticise and debate are upheld.” WorkWorkWorkWednesday briefing: How a sacked official blew the whistle on new lows in the asylum system  Mesa collects food that would otherwise go to waste from supermarkets, farmers and other suppliers and retailers, sorts it, and then donates it to partner organisations. Not only does the programme combat food insecurity; keeping food out of landfills also helps Brazil work towards its environmental targets as wasted food accounts for 8-10% of greenhouse gas emissions globally. WorkTrump scores another convincing win against Haley in Michigan primary  Trump’s dominance of the early states is unparalleled since 1976, when Iowa and New Hampshire began their tradition of holding the first nominating contests. He has won resounding support from most pockets of the Republican voting base, including evangelical voters, conservatives and those who live in rural areas. But Trump has struggled with college-educated voters, losing that bloc in South Carolina to Haley last weekend. |
