Title: Creating Breakthroughs
Introduction
Albert Einstein wisely observed, "The world we've made, as a result of the level of thinking we have done thus far, creates problems we cannot solve at the same level of thinking."
Achieving outstanding success isn't about small, incremental improvements. It's about bold actions and even bolder results. Consider your own company: what would a true breakthrough look like? A 40% increase in productivity? A 50% boost in sales within a quarter? Launching a new distribution channel in just two months? Though these goals may seem unattainable at first, breakthroughs are born from what initially appears impossible.
Characteristics of Breakthroughs
1. Unpredictability: Breakthrough results defy past performance metrics. A consistent 20% annual revenue increase would become a breakthrough with a leap to 50%. Similarly, developing a new product in three months when it typically takes six would be transformative.
2. Commitment Without a Plan: You pledge to achieve results without initially knowing how. This contrasts with the "let's study this" mindset.
3. Concrete and Measurable Outcomes: Breakthroughs set clear, quantifiable goals that elevate your company’s performance and capabilities.
Critical Success Tips
Shift Your Thinking
Traditional decision-making asks, "What do we need and how can we use our capabilities to achieve it?" Breakthrough thinking flips this around: "What are we committed to, and what can we do next?" For instance, instead of pondering over client requests, commit first, then figure out the implementation. While this may seem unconventional or risky, embracing a willingness to attempt bold promises fosters breakthroughs.
Embrace Failure and Experimentation
Don’t fear failure; instead, fail faster! If something seems promising, try it. The more approaches you test and discard, the faster you'll discover a solution. Be open to unconventional, even wild methods for quick results. Remember the quote by Rita Mae Brown: "Insanity is doing the same thing expecting different results." Breakthroughs require novel approaches, so dive in and experiment.
Bold Promises and Action
There are four steps to achieving breakthroughs:
1. Identify a Bold Commitment: Ask yourself, "What seemingly impossible goal would I commit to if I believed it was achievable?"
2. Make a Public Commitment: Your promise should be specific, measurable, and time-bound. Share it with stakeholders, your team, investors, or customers.
3. Innovative Action: Devise strategies to fulfill your commitment and spring into action.
4. Persist Until Completion: Keep refining your methods. Many breakthroughs are just out of reach, a step away.
Conclusion
The key to breakthroughs is bold public commitments and relentless action. Keep iterating: try something, evaluate its success, and continue until you deliver on your promise. Embrace the unconventional and remain driven by your breakthrough commitment.
In the world of breakthroughs, anything truly is possible.
