| | + | ==متن انگلیسی== |
| | + | I have a confession to make. |
| | + | I'm a business professor |
| | + | whose ambition has been |
| | + | to help people learn to lead. |
| | + | But recently, I've discovered |
| | + | that what many of us |
| | + | think of as great leadership |
| | + | does not work when it comes |
| | + | to leading innovation. |
| | + | I'm an ethnographer. |
| | + | I use the methods of anthropology |
| | + | to understand the questions |
| | + | in which I'm interested. |
| | + | So along with three co-conspirators, |
| | + | I spent nearly a decade observing |
| | + | up close and personal |
| | + | exceptional leaders of innovation. |
| | + | We studied 16 men and women, |
| | + | located in seven countries |
| | + | across the globe, |
| | + | working in 12 different industries. |
| | + | In total, we spent hundreds |
| | + | of hours on the ground, |
| | + | on-site, watching these leaders in action. |
| | + | We ended up with pages and pages |
| | + | and pages of field notes |
| | + | that we analyzed and looked |
| | + | for patterns in what our leaders did. |
| | + | The bottom line? |
| | + | If we want to build organizations |
| | + | that can innovate time and again, |
| | + | we must unlearn our conventional |
| | + | notions of leadership. |
| | + | Leading innovation is not |
| | + | about creating a vision, |
| | + | and inspiring others to execute it. |
| | + | But what do we mean by innovation? |
| | + | An innovation is anything |
| | + | that is both new and useful. |
| | + | It can be a product or service. |
| | + | It can be a process |
| | + | or a way of organizing. |
| | + | It can be incremental, |
| | + | or it can be breakthrough. |
| | + | We have a pretty inclusive definition. |
| | + | How many of you recognize this man? |
| | + | Put your hands up. |
| | + | Keep your hands up, |
| | + | if you know who this is. |
| | + | How about these familiar faces? |
| | + | (Laughter) |
| | + | From your show of hands, |
| | + | it looks like many of you |
| | + | have seen a Pixar movie, |
| | + | but very few of you recognized Ed Catmull, |
| | + | the founder and CEO of Pixar -- |
| | + | one of the companies |
| | + | I had the privilege of studying. |
| | + | My first visit to Pixar was in 2005, |
| | + | when they were working on "Ratatouille," |
| | + | that provocative movie about |
| | + | a rat becoming a master chef. |
| | + | Computer-generated movies |
| | + | are really mainstream today, |
| | + | but it took Ed and his |
| | + | colleagues nearly 20 years |
| | + | to create the first |
| | + | full-length C.G. movie. |
| | + | In the 20 years hence, |
| | + | they've produced 14 movies. |
| | + | I was recently at Pixar, |
| | + | and I'm here to tell you |
| | + | that number 15 is sure to be a winner. |
| | + | When many of us think |
| | + | about innovation, though, |
| | + | we think about an Einstein |
| | + | having an 'Aha!' moment. |
| | + | But we all know that's a myth. |
| | + | Innovation is not about solo genius, |
| | + | it's about collective genius. |
| | + | Let's think for a minute about |
| | + | what it takes to make a Pixar movie: |
| | + | No solo genius, no flash of inspiration |
| | + | produces one of those movies. |
| | + | On the contrary, it takes about |
| | + | 250 people four to five years, |
| | + | to make one of those movies. |
| | + | To help us understand the process, |
| | + | an individual in the studio |
| | + | drew a version of this picture. |
| | + | He did so reluctantly, |
| | + | because it suggested that the process |
| | + | was a neat series of steps |
| | + | done by discrete groups. |
| | + | Even with all those arrows, |
| | + | he thought it failed to really tell you |
| | + | just how iterative, interrelated |
| | + | and, frankly, messy their process was. |
| | + | Throughout the making of a movie |
| | + | at Pixar, the story evolves. |
| | + | So think about it. |
| | + | Some shots go through quickly. |
| | + | They don't all go through in order. |
| | + | It depends on how vexing |
| | + | the challenges are |
| | + | that they come up with when they |
| | + | are working on a particular scene. |
| | + | So if you think about that scene in "Up" |
| | + | where the boy hands the piece |
| | + | of chocolate to the bird, |
| | + | that 10 seconds took one animator |
| | + | almost six months to perfect. |
| | + | The other thing about a Pixar movie |
| | + | is that no part of the movie |
| | + | is considered finished |
| | + | until the entire movie wraps. |
| | + | Partway through one production, |
| | + | an animator drew a character |
| | + | with an arched eyebrow that |
| | + | suggested a mischievous side. |
| | + | When the director saw that |
| | + | drawing, he thought it was great. |
| | + | It was beautiful, but he said, |
| | + | "You've got to lose it; |
| | + | it doesn't fit the character." |
| | + | Two weeks later, the director |
| | + | came back and said, |
| | + | Let's put in those few seconds of film. |
| | + | Because that animator |
| | + | was allowed to share |
| | + | what we referred to |
| | + | as his slice of genius, |
| | + | he was able to help that director |
| | + | reconceive the character |
| | + | in a subtle but important way |
| | + | that really improved the story. |
| | + | What we know is, at the heart |
| | + | of innovation is a paradox. |
| | + | You have to unleash the talents |
| | + | and passions of many people |
| | + | and you have to harness them |
| | + | into a work that is actually useful. |
| | + | Innovation is a journey. |
| | + | It's a type of collaborative |
| | + | problem solving, |
| | + | usually among people |
| | + | who have different expertise |
| | + | and different points of view. |
| | + | Innovations rarely get created full-blown. |
| | + | As many of you know, |
| | + | they're the result, |
| | + | usually, of trial and error. |
| | + | Lots of false starts, |
| | + | missteps and mistakes. |
| | + | Innovative work can be |
| | + | very exhilarating, |
| | + | but it also can be |
| | + | really downright scary. |
| | + | So when we look at why it is |
| | + | that Pixar is able to do what it does, |
| | + | we have to ask ourselves, |
| | + | what's going on here? |
| | + | For sure, history |
| | + | and certainly Hollywood, |
| | + | is full of star-studded teams |
| | + | that have failed. |
| | + | Most of those failures are attributed |
| | + | to too many stars or too many |
| | + | cooks, if you will, in the kitchen. |
| | + | So why is it that Pixar, |
| | + | with all of its cooks, |
| | + | is able to be so successful |
| | + | time and time again? |
| | + | When we studied |
| | + | an Islamic Bank in Dubai, |
| | + | or a luxury brand in Korea, |
| | + | or a social enterprise in Africa, |
| | + | we found that innovative organizations |
| | + | are communities that |
| | + | have three capabilities: |
| | + | creative abrasion, creative |
| | + | agility and creative resolution. |
| | + | Creative abrasion is about being able |
| | + | to create a marketplace of ideas |
| | + | through debate and discourse. |
| | + | In innovative organizations, |
| | + | they amplify differences, |
| | + | they don't minimize them. |
| | + | Creative abrasion is not |
| | + | about brainstorming, |
| | + | where people suspend their judgment. |
| | + | No, they know how to have very |
| | + | heated but constructive arguments |
| | + | to create a portfolio of alternatives. |
| | + | Individuals in innovative organizations |
| | + | learn how to inquire, they learn how |
| | + | to actively listen, but guess what? |
| | + | They also learn how to |
| | + | advocate for their point of view. |
| | + | They understand that |
| | + | innovation rarely happens |
| | + | unless you have both |
| | + | diversity and conflict. |
| | + | Creative agility is about being able |
| | + | to test and refine that portfolio of ideas |
| | + | through quick pursuit, |
| | + | reflection and adjustment. |
| | + | It's about discovery-driven learning |
| | + | where you act, as opposed to plan, |
| | + | your way to the future. |
| | + | It's about design thinking where |
| | + | you have that interesting combination |
| | + | of the scientific method |
| | + | and the artistic process. |
| | + | It's about running a series of |
| | + | experiments, and not a series of pilots. |
| | + | Experiments are usually about learning. |
| | + | When you get a negative outcome, |
| | + | you're still really learning something |
| | + | that you need to know. |
| | + | Pilots are often about being right. |
| | + | When they don't work, |
| | + | someone or something is to blame. |
| | + | The final capability |
| | + | is creative resolution. |
| | + | This is about doing decision making |
| | + | in a way that you can actually combine |
| | + | even opposing ideas |
| | + | to reconfigure them in new combinations |
| | + | to produce a solution |
| | + | that is new and useful. |
| | + | When you look at innovative organizations, |
| | + | they never go along to get along. |
| | + | They don't compromise. |
| | + | They don't let one group |
| | + | or one individual dominate, |
| | + | even if it's the boss, |
| | + | even if it's the expert. |
| | + | Instead, they have developed |
| | + | a rather patient and more inclusive |
| | + | decision making process |
| | + | that allows for both/and |
| | + | solutions to arise |
| | + | and not simply either/or solutions. |
| | + | These three capabilities are why we see |
| | + | that Pixar is able to do what it does. |
| | + | Let me give you another example, |
| | + | and that example is the |
| | + | infrastructure group of Google. |
| | + | The infrastructure group |
| | + | of Google is the group |
| | + | that has to keep the website |
| | + | up and running 24/7. |
| | + | So when Google was about |
| | + | to introduce Gmail and YouTube, |
| | + | they knew that their data storage |
| | + | system wasn't adequate. |
| | + | The head of the engineering group |
| | + | and the infrastructure group at that time |
| | + | was a man named Bill Coughran. |
| | + | Bill and his leadership team, |
| | + | who he referred to as his brain trust, |
| | + | had to figure out what to do |
| | + | about this situation. |
| | + | They thought about it for a while. |
| | + | Instead of creating a group |
| | + | to tackle this task, |
| | + | they decided to allow groups |
| | + | to emerge spontaneously |
| | + | around different alternatives. |
| | + | Two groups coalesced. |
| | + | One became known as Big Table, |
| | + | the other became known |
| | + | as Build It From Scratch. |
| | + | Big Table proposed that they |
| | + | build on the current system. |
| | + | Build It From Scratch proposed |
| | + | that it was time for a whole new system. |
| | + | Separately, these two teams |
| | + | were allowed to work full-time |
| | + | on their particular approach. |
| | + | In engineering reviews, |
| | + | Bill described his role as, |
| | + | "Injecting honesty into |
| | + | the process by driving debate." |
| | + | Early on, the teams were encouraged |
| | + | to build prototypes so that they could |
| | + | "bump them up against reality |
| | + | and discover for themselves |
| | + | the strengths and weaknesses |
| | + | of their particular approach." |
| | + | When Build It From Scratch shared |
| | + | their prototype with the group |
| | + | whose beepers would have |
| | + | to go off in the middle of the night |
| | + | if something went wrong |
| | + | with the website, |
| | + | they heard loud and clear about the |
| | + | limitations of their particular design. |
| | + | As the need for a solution |
| | + | became more urgent |
| | + | and as the data, or the |
| | + | evidence, began to come in, |
| | + | it became pretty clear |
| | + | that the Big Table solution |
| | + | was the right one for the moment. |
| | + | So they selected that one. |
| | + | But to make sure that |
| | + | they did not lose the learning |
| | + | of the Build it From Scratch team, |
| | + | Bill asked two members of that team |
| | + | to join a new team that was emerging |
| | + | to work on the next-generation system. |
| | + | This whole process took nearly two years, |
| | + | but I was told that they were |
| | + | all working at breakneck speed. |
| | + | Early in that process, one of the |
| | + | engineers had gone to Bill and said, |
| | + | "We're all too busy |
| | + | for this inefficient system |
| | + | of running parallel experiments." |
| | + | But as the process unfolded, |
| | + | he began to understand |
| | + | the wisdom of allowing talented |
| | + | people to play out their passions. |
| | + | He admitted, "If you had forced us |
| | + | to all be on one team, |
| | + | we might have focused on proving |
| | + | who was right, and winning, |
| | + | and not on learning and discovering |
| | + | what was the best answer for Google." |
| | + | Why is it that Pixar and Google |
| | + | are able to innovate time and again? |
| | + | It's because they've mastered |
| | + | the capabilities required for that. |
| | + | They know how to do |
| | + | collaborative problem solving, |
| | + | they know how to do |
| | + | discovery-driven learning |
| | + | and they know how to do |
| | + | integrated decision making. |
| | + | Some of you may be sitting there |
| | + | and saying to yourselves right now, |
| | + | "We don't know how to do |
| | + | those things in my organization. |
| | + | So why do they know how to |
| | + | do those things at Pixar, |
| | + | and why do they know how to |
| | + | do those things at Google?" |
| | + | When many of the people |
| | + | that worked for Bill told us, |
| | + | in their opinion, that Bill was one |
| | + | of the finest leaders in Silicon Valley, |
| | + | we completely agreed; |
| | + | the man is a genius. |
| | + | Leadership is the secret sauce. |
| | + | But it's a different kind of leadership, |
| | + | not the kind many of us think about |
| | + | when we think about great leadership. |
| | + | One of the leaders I met with |
| | + | early on said to me, |
| | + | "Linda, I don't read books on leadership. |
| | + | All they do is make me feel bad." |
| | + | (Laughter) |
| | + | "In the first chapter they say |
| | + | I'm supposed to create a vision. |
| | + | But if I'm trying to do something |
| | + | that's truly new, I have no answers. |
| | + | I don't know what |
| | + | direction we're going in |
| | + | and I'm not even sure I know |
| | + | how to figure out how to get there." |
| | + | For sure, there are times |
| | + | when visionary leadership |
| | + | is exactly what is needed. |
| | + | But if we want to build organizations |
| | + | that can innovate time and again, |
| | + | we must recast our understanding |
| | + | of what leadership is about. |
| | + | Leading innovation is about |
| | + | creating the space |
| | + | where people are willing |
| | + | and able to do the hard work |
| | + | of innovative problem solving. |
| | + | At this point, some of you |
| | + | may be wondering, |
| | + | "What does that leadership |
| | + | really look like?" |
| | + | At Pixar, they understand |
| | + | that innovation takes a village. |
| | + | The leaders focus on building |
| | + | a sense of community |
| | + | and building those three capabilities. |
| | + | How do they define leadership? |
| | + | They say leadership |
| | + | is about creating a world |
| | + | to which people want to belong. |
| | + | What kind of world do people |
| | + | want to belong in at Pixar? |
| | + | A world where you're |
| | + | living at the frontier. |
| | + | What do they focus their time on? |
| | + | Not on creating a vision. |
| | + | Instead they spend |
| | + | their time thinking about, |
| | + | "How do we design a studio that has |
| | + | the sensibility of a public square |
| | + | so that people will interact? |
| | + | Let's put in a policy that anyone, |
| | + | no matter what their level or role, |
| | + | is allowed to give notes to the director |
| | + | about how they feel |
| | + | about a particular film. |
| | + | What can we do to make sure |
| | + | that all the disruptors, all the |
| | + | minority voices in this organization, |
| | + | speak up and are heard? |
| | + | And, finally, let's bestow credit |
| | + | in a very generous way." |
| | + | I don't know if you've ever looked |
| | + | at the credits of a Pixar movie, |
| | + | but the babies born during |
| | + | a production are listed there. |
| | + | (Laughter) |
| | + | How did Bill think about |
| | + | what his role was? |
| | + | Bill said, "I lead |
| | + | a volunteer organization. |
| | + | Talented people don't want |
| | + | to follow me anywhere. |
| | + | They want to cocreate |
| | + | with me the future. |
| | + | My job is to nurture the bottom-up |
| | + | and not let it degenerate into chaos." |
| | + | How did he see his role? |
| | + | "I'm a role model, |
| | + | I'm a human glue, |
| | + | I'm a connector, |
| | + | I'm an aggregator of viewpoints. |
| | + | I'm never a dictator of viewpoints." |
| | + | Advice about how you exercise the role? |
| | + | Hire people who argue with you. |
| | + | And, guess what? |
| | + | Sometimes it's best to be |
| | + | deliberately fuzzy and vague. |
| | + | Some of you may |
| | + | be wondering now, |
| | + | what are these people thinking? |
| | + | They're thinking, |
| | + | "I'm not the visionary, |
| | + | I'm the social architect. |
| | + | I'm creating the space where |
| | + | people are willing and able |
| | + | to share and combine |
| | + | their talents and passions." |
| | + | If some of you are worrying now |
| | + | that you don't work at a Pixar, |
| | + | or you don't work at a Google, |
| | + | I want to tell you there's still hope. |
| | + | We've studied many organizations |
| | + | that were really not |
| | + | organizations you'd think of |
| | + | as ones where a lot of innovation happens. |
| | + | We studied a general counsel |
| | + | in a pharmaceutical company |
| | + | who had to figure out how |
| | + | to get the outside lawyers, |
| | + | 19 competitors, |
| | + | to collaborate and innovate. |
| | + | We studied the head of marketing |
| | + | at a German automaker |
| | + | where, fundamentally, they believed |
| | + | that it was the design engineers, |
| | + | not the marketeers, |
| | + | who were allowed to be innovative. |
| | + | We also studied Vineet Nayar |
| | + | at HCL Technologies, |
| | + | an Indian outsourcing company. |
| | + | When we met Vineet, |
| | + | his company was about, in his |
| | + | words, to become irrelevant. |
| | + | We watched as he turned that company |
| | + | into a global dynamo of I.T. innovation. |
| | + | At HCL technologies, |
| | + | like at many companies, |
| | + | the leaders had learned to see |
| | + | their role as setting direction |
| | + | and making sure that |
| | + | no one deviated from it. |
| | + | What he did is tell them |
| | + | it was time for them |
| | + | to think about rethinking |
| | + | what they were supposed to do. |
| | + | Because what was happening |
| | + | is that everybody was looking up |
| | + | and you weren't seeing |
| | + | the kind of bottom-up innovation |
| | + | we saw at Pixar or Google. |
| | + | So they began to work on that. |
| | + | They stopped giving answers, they |
| | + | stopped trying to provide solutions. |
| | + | Instead, what they did |
| | + | is they began to see |
| | + | the people at the bottom of the |
| | + | pyramid, the young sparks, |
| | + | the people who were |
| | + | closest to the customers, |
| | + | as the source of innovation. |
| | + | They began to transfer |
| | + | the organization's growth |
| | + | to that level. |
| | + | In Vineet's language, this was |
| | + | about inverting the pyramid |
| | + | so that you could unleash |
| | + | the power of the many |
| | + | by loosening the stranglehold of the few, |
| | + | and increase the quality |
| | + | and the speed of innovation |
| | + | that was happening every day. |
| | + | For sure, Vineet and all the |
| | + | other leaders that we studied |
| | + | were in fact visionaries. |
| | + | For sure, they understood |
| | + | that that was not their role. |
| | + | So I don't think it is accidental |
| | + | that many of you did not recognize Ed. |
| | + | Because Ed, like Vineet, understands |
| | + | that our role as leaders |
| | + | is to set the stage, not perform on it. |
| | + | If we want to invent a better future, |
| | + | and I suspect that's why |
| | + | many of us are here, |
| | + | then we need to reimagine our task. |
| | + | Our task is to create the space |
| | + | where everybody's slices of genius |
| | + | can be unleashed and harnessed, |
| | + | and turned into works |
| | + | of collective genius. |
| | + | Thank you. |
