Chapter 10 Innovation and Change
What Would You Do?Product Innovation at Kimberly-Clark • Procter & Gamble is determined to lead the market in diapers • P&G responds aggressively to new innovations by Kimberly-Clark • Other products, such as toilet paper are perceived to have little room for innovation
Learning ObjectivesOrganizational Innovation After discussing this section, you should be able to: • explain why innovation matters to companies. • discuss the different methods that managers can use to effectively manage innovation in their organizations.

Managing Innovation Managing Sources of Innovation Managing Innovation During Discontinuous Change Managing Innovation During Incremental Change
Managing Sources of Innovation • Creative work environments • workplace cultures in which workers perceive that new ideas are encouraged • Flow • the psychological state of effortlessness
Organizational Encouragement Challenging Work Supervisory Encouragement Creative Work Environments Organizational Impediments Work Group Encouragement Freedom Components of Creative Work Environments Adapted from Exhibit 10.4
Been There, Done That John Cleese on Innovations & Creativity • We need to have a positive attitudes towards mistakes • Fear of failure hurts creativity • Mistakes should be fixed, not concealed
Managing Innovation During Discontinuous Change • Discontinuous Change • technology discontinuity creates a significant breakthrough • Use the experiential approach to innovation • innovation created by intuition, flexible options, and hands-on experience in an uncertain environment
Experiential Approach to Innovation Design Iteration Testing Milestones Multifunctional Teams Powerful Leaders
Managing Innovation during Incremental Change • Compression approach to innovation • assumes that innovation is a predictable process that can be planned in steps • Generational change • based on incremental improvements to a dominant technological design and achieving backward compatibility with older technology
Compression Approach to Innovation Planning Supplier Involvement Shortening the Time of Individual Steps Overlapping Steps Multifunctional Teams
Comparing Experiential and Compression Approaches • Experiential Approach • Highly uncertain environment • Goals: speed, significant improvements • Approach: build something new and significantly better • Design iterations • Testing • Milestones • Multifunctional teams • Powerful leaders • Compression Approach • Certain environment • Goals: speed, lower costs, incremental improvements • Approach: compress time and steps, small improvements • Planning • Supplier involvement • Shortening time of steps • Overlapping steps • Multifunctional Teams Approach Assumptions Steps Adapted from Exhibit 10.5
Learning ObjectivesOrganizational Change • discuss why change occurs and why it matters. • discuss the different methods that managers can use to better manage changeas it occurs. After discussing this section, you should be able to:

Change Tools and Techniques Results-Driven Change General Electric Workout Transition Management Team Organizational Development Change Agent
Results-Driven Change • Creates quick change by focusing on measurement and improvement of results • create measurable, short-term goals • use action steps likely to improve performance • importance of immediate improvements • consultants and staffers help managers • test actions steps to see if yield improvements • few resources required to get change started
General Electric Three Day Workout • Boss sets agenda and identifies targets, then leaves • Outside facilitator works with sub-groups, who debate solutions • “Town Meeting” on day three • subgroups make suggestions • boss must decide on the spot
Transition Management Team (TMT) • A team of employees whose full-time job is managing change • Anticipate and manage employee reactions to change • Top management determines change initiatives • TMT accomplishes those initiatives
Organizational Development (OD) • A philosophy and collection of planned change interventions • Designed to ensure organizations long-term survival • Change Agent • the person formally charged with guiding a change effort • can be internal or external person
