Environmental Forces - influencing competitive...

Innovation is a key need for every business, the challenge is how can you support it within your organization. Change and execution risk vary based on the type of “command and control” structure and execution model which is in place when it comes to product and market innovation. Maybe that’s not the right phrase it/way to look at it, but if your organization isn’t nimble enough to support innovation that will definitely be a barrier to success in tough economic markets. The presentation below provides an overview of the Agile Virtual Enterprise (AVE). I think I like the acronym better than the buzzwords.

UPDATE:PRESENTATION BROKE MY FEE

So what was I supposed to do today?

Just to let you know it is SLIDE WEEK! What does that mean?  Well, it basically means I spent way to much time looking up stuff, so you get to look at them too.  Waste not, want not.

The other way to look at it is that I go into a powerpoint hole starting today – probably for the next 10 days.  So this is exercise and your active participation in slide week is basically a way to empathize and share the joy.

So what is it that product managers do? This presentation covers the broad strokes fairly well.  The most important slides are 9  on bridging the organization and 11 which cites brand at the first item.

Hope you enjoy “Slide Week” here at spatially relevant, I’ve found some many interesting ones I’m going to post throughout the week.
