The Unicist Technologies integrated in the Unicist Standard are available worldwide to develop diagnoses, forecasts, strategies and organizational design through the Unicist Confederation.

The global expansion of the Unicist Confederation – developed through Alliances, Unicist Diagnostics Centers and Unicist Scientific Dissemination Centers – required the establishment of a pricing policy that includes the interests of the clients, the members of the Unicist Confederation and The Unicist Research Institute.

It has to be considered that The Unicist Research Institute is the major research organization in the world in its specialty based on more than 3,000 researches in complexity science applied to individual, institutional and social evolution.

This research was possible due to the participation in the research of hundreds of institutions and companies and thousands of individuals since its beginning in 1976.

From today on the prices in USD of the main proposals are:

-Diana Belohlavek`s Lecture on Unicist Thinking (7,000)
-Second Opinion Business Diagnoses (45,000 – 600,000)
-Second Opinion Diagnostics for Personal use (9,000)
-Unicist Market Laboratory (70,000 – 250,000)
-Unicist Organizational Laboratory (70,000 – 250,000)
-Unicist Strategic Diagnostics Program (9,000)
-Consultation with Peter Belohlavek (8,000)
-Unicist Strategy for Diagnosticians & Graduates (27,000)
-Unicist Think Tanks & R&D Labs (70,000 – 250,000)
-Unicist Talent Diagnoses & Development for High Potentials (1,000 per participant)
-Unicist Lectures (4,000 – 25,000)
-Unicist Corporate Universities (45,000 – 250,000)

In “Unicist Strategic Programs” and “Unicist Strategy for Diagnosticians & Graduates”, the benefit of the participant’s client has to be above 10 times the price paid for the program (based on a pre-diagnosis measured at the level of the maximal strategy).

As Nikola Tesla laid the groundings for “Innovative Research Laboratories”, Thomas A. Edison laid the groundings for “Product Development Laboratories.”

The unicist standard for business strategy allows defining the fundamentals of General Electric’s business in order to benchmark its experiences.

General Electric was born together with the “Product Development Laboratories” of Thomas A. Edison. Thus General Electric’s business concept is driven by research in all the fields where it considers there is a possibility to generate added value to the market.

In the development of innovations, the minimum strategy drives toward the building of social capital. This is the central fundamental of General Electric and it is sustained by the diversified “Product Development Laboratories” they have around the world.

General Electric is a leading firm in the different fields it works because, besides being extremely innovative, it is Market Value Adding focused.

Being focused on market value adding allows developing useful researches and strengthening the market bonds by improving the social capital in the environment.

The structural approach to innovations developed by General Electric is an “extreme” benchmark for innovative businesses.

Managing the nature of innovation is basic when dealing with growth. This is something General Electric manages since the era of Thomas Edison.

The Unicist Standard in Innovation Management deals with the object driven technologies that are necessary to manage innovations.

You will find the information on the nature of innovation between the lines of Jeff Immelt’s lecture, CEO of G.E:

Next week we will be providing the ontology of innovation in order to help benchmark General Electric.

The Unicist Value Analysis has been developed to reduce costs and increase quality and productivity of processes that behave as adaptive systems. This method is included in all the Business Objects that deal with costs, quality and productivity.

Value analysis began at General Electric Co. during World War II. It was developed by Lawrence Miles, Jerry Leftow, and Harry Erlicher at G.E. It was designed to deal with systemic problems.

Processes become complex when soft variables participate in them. Processes behave as adaptive systems when human components participate and the “traditional” value analysis is dysfunctional.

As soon as causes-effect relations cannot be considered as valid because there are bi-univocal cause-effect relations a different technique needs to be applied.

The Unicist Value Analysis was developed in 1981-82. The first applications were at: Citibank, Renault, Bayer and BASF. It is a method that considers the technical analytical aspects of process and the fundamentals of adaptive systems’ processes. See graph.

The fundamentals of this method are:

For its maximal strategy:

-Utility
-Systemic Functionality
-Redundancy by substitution

For its minimum strategy:

-Opportunity (Taxonomic)
-Specific functionality
-Operational redundancy

It is necessary to diagnose first what kind of a process one is dealing with.

The evolution level of a company defines the reach of the application of value analysis.

Apple’s success is based on the capacity of perceiving the latent needs of the market and delivering original innovative solutions.

We hope you made the effort to learn from Steve Jobs about Apple’s fundamentals as we proposed.

If you still haven’t done the “homework” we recommend watching the video before following the reading of the answer to the questions posted:

http://unicist.net/it/learning-from-steve-jobs-apple%E2%80%99s-fundamentals/

We consider that the core fundamental of Apple is aesthetics. But aesthetics is not beauty. It goes beyond.

Apple products are aesthetic because they complete the needs of their prospect clients, they are desirable and harmonic. They also include inaccessible aspects that basically deal with innovative technology.

It can be said that the integration of an innovative technology with the fulfillment of latent needs are the core fundamentals that drive Apple’s business.

Steve Jobs is a doer himself

“Doers make things happen. Therefore, more than ever before, it is time for doers in the world.”

Doers are very special individuals. They are basically individuals whose fulfillment is based on doing transcendent things. They need to achieve what they have decided to do. When things cannot be done the easy way, they find the necessary path to make things happen.

“The world is built by doers and enjoyed by followers”. The joy of doers is in the deed itself.

We hope this has been useful.

The development of unicist technologies and their implementation processes required the research of innovation blindness to develop strategies to avoid it.

Change blindness is a well known and experimented subject. The research was developed by different educational institutions:
http://viscog.beckman.uiuc.edu/change/people.shtml

Innovation blindness is an unconscious response of individuals who do not perceive the proposed change, when the conditions to make use of it are not given.

The avoidance of energy consumption to introduce a new task in an individual’s brain is the functionality of innovation blindness.

Causes of innovation blindness

There are social and individual causes.

Social causes

1) When there are utopias implicit in the innovations that are out of reach for a group or society.
2) When the innovation does not respects the myths of a culture.
3) When the innovation disrespects the taboos of a culture.
4) When the innovation modifies the ethics of a culture.

Individual causes

1) When it modifies an individual’s habits.
2) When it modifies the ethics of an individual.
3) When the “functional recreation” by a user requires a level of knowledge the individual doesn’t have.
4) When the ego or the “business” of an individual is affected.
5) When an increase of responsibility of the user is required and s/he has no need to assume it.
6) When an increase of internal freedom of the individual is required.
7) When it stimulates guild or fear of the user.

Your comments are welcome.
