Balancing Growth And Innovation

SMART goals are dumb. Definitely outdated. They were literally coined in 1981 by John T. Doran in the Management Review. That's 43 years old. Oh and psst - your team hates setting them. Why? Because the acronym is fundamentally flawed: Specific: Limits creativity and hampers your ability to adapt when new information emerges. 🤔 Measurable: Sure, you know when you've achieved it, but does it drive meaningful, impactful outcomes? 📉 Attainable: Keeps you comfortably within your comfort zone—hardly a place for growth. 🛋️ Realistic: Another word for attainable. It encourages small thinking and boxes you in. 🚫 Time-bound: While deadlines are important, meaningful goals need built-in milestones that keep motivation high and the dopamine flowing. 🎯 In short, SMART goals keep us stuck in mediocrity, lacking purpose and innovation. So, what’s the alternative? Enter the PIC Framework: Purpose-Driven: Every goal should connect to a deeper mission or value. This alignment not only motivates but also gives each goal a clear "why." 🎯 Impactful: Goals should aim for outcomes that matter—shifting the focus from what's easily measurable to what's truly transformative. 🌍 Challenging: If your goals don’t make you a little uncomfortable, you’re not aiming high enough. Embrace the discomfort as a sign of growth and ambition.💪 Want to innovate your goal setting? Here's how you can bring PIC to your organization: Start with Purpose ➡ Align goals with the organization's mission. 🌟 Define Impact ➡ Focus on meaningful outcomes that drive the business forward over easy measurements (especially, for the sake of a great dashboard). 📊 Set Challenging Objectives ➡ Encourage ambition and innovation - yep, even if it scares you. 🚀 Embed Milestones ➡ Keep motivation high with regular wins - not just a potential bonus at the end of the year. 🏆 Foster Reflection ➡ Regularly review and adapt goals as needed. 🔄 (In other words, setting a goal in January and refusing to change it because you set it, even though you have new information, is well...ridiculous.) By moving from SMART to PIC, you create a culture of purpose, impact, and challenge. And who knows - maybe people will finally start to buy-in to the goal setting process and actually like it! 🌟 #Leadership #Innovation #GoalSetting #BusinessGrowth #PurposeDriven

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗘𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁-𝗧𝗲𝗿𝗺 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 & 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴-𝗧𝗲𝗿𝗺 𝗚𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀 EA gets caught between the 𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗰𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 and the 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆. Some orgs embed EA into SA roles so projects meet current demands. Others make EA a billable function, tying value to immediate deliverables. Both approaches bring risks: ➡ When SAs wear EA hats, decisions are localized rather than strategically aligned, risking fragmented technology landscapes. ➡ When EA is billable, there’s pressure to justify work through short-term project outcomes over enterprise-wide impact. To drive transformation, EA must be a 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿. Here are 3 Ways EA Balances The Short- and Long-Term: 𝟭 | 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗔 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆, 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 EA shouldn’t just validate solutions—it should shape them. 𝙃𝙤𝙬?  ✔ Engage EA in strategy to align roadmaps with business goals.  ✔ Ensure decisions are more than tactical—connect them to enterprise-wide outcomes.  ✔ Establish EA governance so short-term decisions don't create long-term complexity. 📊 EA works best defining the guardrails—not just reviewing outputs. 𝟮 | 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 Orgs need speed to stay competitive—but not at the cost of architectural integrity. 𝙃𝙤𝙬?  ✔ Iterative architecture allows for agile decision-making while maintaining long-term vision.  ✔ EA assesses the impact of emerging technologies before disrupting existing structures.  ✔ Use reference architectures and patterns to ensure scalability while allowing for flexibility. 🔄 EA helps businesses move fast—without breaking the foundation. 𝟯 | 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗘𝗔’𝘀 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀 If EA is only evaluated by project success, its strategic influence diminishes. 𝙃𝙤𝙬?  ✔ 𝗧𝗶𝗲 𝗘𝗔 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲, not technical implementation.  ✔ Define KPIs that reflect cost savings, agility, and risk reduction.  ✔ Showcase EA’s role in long-term value creation, beyond project timelines. 🎯 EA’s success isn’t just about what gets built today—it’s about what remains sustainable tomorrow. 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 Enterprise Architecture isn’t a support function—𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗿.

According to the 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐈𝐎 𝐒𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐲 by Foundry, 𝟕𝟓% of CIOs find it challenging to strike the right balance between these two critical areas. This difficulty is notably higher in sectors such as education (𝟖𝟐%) and manufacturing (𝟕𝟖%), and less so in retail (𝟓𝟒%). (Source: https://lnkd.in/ebsed9i7) 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬: The increasing emphasis on digital transformation and artificial intelligence (AI) is driving the need for innovation. In 2024, 28% of CIOs reported that their primary CEO-driven objective was to lead digital business initiatives, a significant increase from the previous year. This push towards innovation often competes with the imperative to maintain operational excellence, including upgrading IT and data security and enhancing IT-business collaboration. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: The tension between innovation and operational excellence can lead to a misallocation of resources if not managed correctly. It can result in either stifling innovation due to overemphasis on day-to-day operations or risking operational integrity by over-prioritizing disruptive technological advancements. For instance, sectors with a high focus on operational challenges, such as education and healthcare, particularly emphasize IT security and business alignment over aggressive innovation. 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐂𝐈𝐎𝐬: • 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐚 𝐃𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐚: Get used to it! CIOs should advocate for an IT strategy that equally prioritizes operational excellence and innovation. This involves not only leading digital transformation projects, but also ensuring that these innovations deliver tangible business outcomes without compromising the operational integrity of the organization. • 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐈𝐓 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Strengthening the collaboration between IT and other business units remains a top priority. CIOs should work closely with business leaders to ensure that technological initiatives are well-aligned with business goals, thereby enhancing the overall strategic impact of IT. • 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩 𝐚 𝐅𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐀𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥: To manage the dynamic demands of both innovation and operational tasks effectively, CIOs should adopt a flexible resource allocation model. This model would allow the IT department to shift resources quickly between innovation-driven projects and core IT functions, depending on the business priorities at any given time. ******************************************* • Visit www.jeffwinterinsights.com for access to all my content and to stay current on Industry 4.0 and other cool tech trends • Ring the 🔔 for notifications!

Product innovation isn't about adding every feature customers request, it's about making the right choices that create genuine value for the customer. The core issue isn't about feature abundance, it's about purpose. When we try to please everyone by incorporating every legacy system and new technology, we risk creating a Frankenstein product that serves no one effectively. Real innovation comes from understanding which features truly enhance the user experience and drive meaningful progress. My golden rules: 🔸 Smart product development requires ruthless prioritization 🔸 Customer feedback needs strategic filtering 🔸 Legacy support shouldn't compromise future vision Excellence in product development isn't about saying "yes" to everything - it's about making informed decisions that align with both user needs and business strategy. How do you balance customer requests with strategic innovation in your organization? #Innovation #Future #Technology #LinkedinTopVoices #ProductStrategy #DigitalTransformation #CustomerExperience

The UK’s new car market is at a crossroads. April saw a 10.4% drop in new car registrations, the sixth decline in seven months, highlighting a fragile economy and wavering consumer confidence. Strategic, long-term action is now essential. Tax changes, like the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) adjustments and the Expensive Car Supplement, are reshaping consumer behaviour and shifting transactions unpredictably, demonstrating that policy has real-time impact. Electric vehicle (EV) adoption is growing. Battery electric vehicle (BEV) registrations rose 8.1%, but their 20.4% market share still falls short of ZEV Mandate requirements. Fleet buyers now make up 60% of the market, signalling progress but also an imbalance, private consumers are being sidelined from EV purchase and continuing to choose the internal combustion engine. On that point, as we push toward electrification and the launch of our new BEV in 2026, the Mazda6e, we must also recognise the continued relevance of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. For many consumers, particularly in rural areas or with limited charging access, ICE vehicles remain the practical and affordable choice. A balanced market must support both paths during the transition, and we recognise this need at Mazda through our multi-solution approach to finding innovative solutions for our customers’ needs across the full range of vehicles and powertrains. To ensure sustainable growth: - Reform incentives: Make incentives more inclusive.  - Protect equality: Ensure lower-income consumers aren’t excluded from the green transition.  - Maintain consumer choice: Recognise that ICEs will continue to serve critical mobility needs during the transition, particularly for rural communities, those driving long distance and those not yet ready to make the switch to EVs.  - Drive awareness: Use media to improve consumer understanding of the ZEV mandate and what it means for them, including the continued option for the internal combustion engine cars and dispel misinformation.  - Invest in innovation: Advance EV tech and infrastructure to meet future demand and attract investment. We must avoid heavy-handed interventions that distort the market and penalise consumers. A one-size-fits-all approach won’t work. The transition to zero emissions must be inclusive, stable, and grounded in real-world needs.

Every founder loves retention. We celebrate repeat customers, steady revenue, high CLTV. But over-relying on your best customers might silently be killing your growth. When 80% of your revenue comes from the same 20% of loyal buyers, your business becomes comfortable. Innovation slows. Risk-taking fades. You start optimizing for the same people over and over again - while the market moves on. That’s the 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐱, the very customers who built you can eventually limit you. 𝐀 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞: BlackBerry listened too closely to enterprise clients. Those customers insisted: “We need physical keyboards, email security, no distractions.” BlackBerry delivered - again and again until a new category of consumers demanded touchscreens, apps, and superior UX. Apple listened to the next customer, not the current one. The rest is history. 𝐒𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐝𝐨? 1. 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 “𝐍𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫” Balance current feedback with upcoming market behaviour.

India holds 95% of the world’s handwoven fabric—yet risks losing both its heritage and its competitive edge if we don’t act wisely. We’re at a crossroads: how do we embrace automation for scale, speed, and sustainability, without eroding the cultural soul of our textile legacy? Automation brings clear benefits: improved efficiency, supply chain resilience, and global competitiveness. But challenges loom large—high capital costs, legacy infrastructure, diverse fabric needs, and an overwhelmingly unorganised weaving sector (95%) slow down adoption. On the other hand, our handloom sector—rich in tradition and artistry—is grappling with a declining workforce and rising costs. Still, it holds powerful levers: cultural value, export potential, and increasing government support. From experience, I believe the way forward lies in intelligent integration: →Hybrid models that balance craft and technology →Skill development programs to future-proof our workforce →Targeted market segmentation to preserve authenticity while scaling impact India’s global leadership in handwoven textiles, combined with favourable tariff dynamics, opens a unique window to lead the world in sustainable sourcing. But to seize it, we must focus on: ✅ Value addition through quality craftsmanship ✅ Supply chain upgrades to meet global benchmarks ✅ Diversified exports beyond traditional markets ✅ Strategic branding and traceability to reinforce authenticity This isn’t about choosing between heritage and innovation—it’s about building a resilient ecosystem that honours both. What decisive strategies do you believe are critical to ensure this balanced, future-ready coexistence? #textile #textileindustry #leadwithrajeev #leadership #globalmarket

In a world of quarterly targets and instant gratification, long-term thinking is becoming a rare—and powerful—superpower. The leaders I admire most are the ones who resist the pressure to react and instead choose to respond. Managers who invest in people and ideas that won’t necessarily pay off tomorrow, but will shape what’s possible years from now. Long-term thinking shows up in all kinds of ways: ✔️ Building a resilient company culture. The strength of a resilient company culture should not be underestimated. It is one that you can lean on during good and bad times. It can serve as your compass and be with you through a company’s evolution. A resilient company allows you to innovate and keeps your mission and purpose aligned. There are no short cuts to building resilience. Meaning that the most resilient cultures are those built over time and through long-term strategic thinking and commitment. ✔️ Choosing sustainable growth over unsustainable speed. Quick growth is fine—great, even—but not if it causes you to make careless mistakes that will be difficult to recover from. If you're growing so fast that you are neglecting quality, or worse, safety, then it's time to recalibrate. Long-term success means prioritizing the well-being of your customers and your team. ✔️ Focusing on relationships with your customer, not just transactions. This includes knowing your stakeholders. If revenue dips, it might be tempting to raise prices to patch the shortfall. However, ask yourself: is  price the problem, or is there something deeper missing in the product or service? Short-term fixes can backfire if they erode trust. Long-term thinking requires you to deeply understand the needs of the people you serve—and to keep earning their loyalty over time. Personally, I’ve found that long-term thinking brings clarity. It helps me filter out the noise and focus on what really matters—not just in business, but in life. If you want to lead with vision, ask yourself: What will matter most in five years? And what am I doing today to build toward that? When you can zoom out, you often see the path forward more clearly. And that’s how leaders—and legacies—are built.

Imagine a luxury hotel experience where everything feels magically personalized - your preferences anticipated, your needs met before you express them - yet you never interact with a single screen or app during your stay. This is the future of hospitality that's already here. The most successful luxury brands today operate like swans: graceful and seamless on the surface, while powerful technology works invisibly beneath. Too many companies make the mistake of showcasing their technology as a feature, missing that guests don't value the tech itself; they value what it enables: deeper human connections and more personalized attention. Marriott's Bonvoy program exemplifies this balance. Their AI-powered system works behind the scenes to personalize everything from room recommendations to loyalty rewards, but guests primarily experience these benefits through enhanced human interactions with staff who are freed from administrative burdens. The organizations thriving in this new paradigm understand a crucial truth: technology should enhance rather than replace personal service. AI and automation are most powerful when deployed strategically behind the scenes to create the conditions for authentic human touchpoints. This isn't about reducing staff or cutting costs; it's about repositioning your human talent where they add the most value. Let technology handle operational complexities while your people focus entirely on creating memorable, emotion-rich experiences. For executives navigating this transition, the blueprint isn't about chasing every new trend. Success comes from steady improvements in anticipating and prioritizing what travelers truly value. The question is no longer "how much should we invest in technology?" but rather "how can we make our technology invisible while making our human touch unforgettable?" The companies that answer this question effectively are creating the next era of travel experiences—where the digital and physical worlds blend seamlessly, and technology serves humanity rather than the other way around. Are you building a swan, or just showing off your tech? —— Want to know which travel companies are best positioned for the AI-driven future? Read my latest report: https://lnkd.in/e7nc5Qyk

Over the past few months, we’ve seen two conflicting realities emerge around enterprise technology. On one hand, companies are investing heavily in AI, data infrastructure and digital transformation.  On the other, 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞.

That outcome, though, depends on 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐭𝐨𝐩. Boards and executive teams need to ensure that: 1. Technology strategy is integrated into business strategy, as opposed to layered as an afterthought. 2. Capital allocation prioritizes data quality, interoperability and modernization. 3. Value capture is measured through productivity and profitability. 4. Talent development keeps pace because the ROI on technology ultimately depends on the ROI on people.
