The world is changing faster and faster, with increasing uncertainty and threat of disruption in every business and nonprofit segment.
In the fast changing world we all find ourselves in, being an imperfectionist is a critical advantage for you and your organization..
These Strategic Mindsets for solving tough problems in Uncertain Times help you fight decision biases and give you the data to develop informed strategies to win.
Imperfectionists succeed with dynamic, real time Strategic problem solving, confidently moving forward while others wait for certainty, or make impetuous and foolish bets.
They accept ambiguity and some apparent failures in exchange for improved learning and market position.
They deliberately step into risk, proceeding through trial and error, utilizing nimble low consequence and reversible moves to deepen their understanding of the unfolding game being played, and to build capabilities.
Imperfectionists are curious, they look at problems from several perspectives, and gather new data and approaches, including from outside their current industry.
Based on a decade of research and 30 new case studies, The Imperfectionists posits a dynamic approach to developing organizational direction under uncertainty based on harnessing six reinforcing Strategic mindsets, which they call curiosity, dragonfly eye, occurrent behaviour, collective wisdom, imperfectionism, and show and tell.
In this sequel to their Amazon-bestseller, Bulletproof Problem Solving , Conn and Mclean introduce a novel approach to Strategic problem solving.
As a consequence, many management teams are stuck in a wait-and-see posture in response to extreme uncertainty in the post-Covid environment, while others are making panicky bets, including \'leap before you look\' acquisitions.
Most company planning processes are fantasy; market conditions are changing too quickly for arm-chair strategizing to be useful.
Conventional approaches to strategy development and problem solving no longer work--there is no stable industry or market equilibrium structure that we will return to when change abates.
