Innovation is a paradoxical matter, everyone asks for it but a few really want it. Introducing an innovation implies accepting the existence of innovation blindness. The one who denies it will hinder the innovation.

An innovative solution is the consequence of a creative personal action to overcome scarcity in a given context in an environment that has the expectation, trust and credibility that a new solution will be found.

Innovation blindness is a characteristic of “innovation-phobics” and “innovation-busters. These individuals cannot see changes, avoiding the necessary work to recreate their functionality.

This innovation blindness produces:
a)    An incapacity to perceive the functionality of new elements
b)    The vision that the new elements lack some functionalities included in the existing solutions.

The introduction of changes implies having a conscious perception of what is being done. When possible, the simultaneous use of innovations with known and accepted elements is a solution (when they are compatible). The fist cars were horse-wagons with a motor. The first steam ships were sail ships with a motor.

Breakthroughs do not allow the use of elements of the past. The invention of the airplane is an example. In this case it is necessary to segment the implementation, counting that experience will demonstrate the functionality of the innovation.

Compromises are necessary to introduce new management models in a company. It will often be necessary to develop horse-wagons with a motor.

When a new strategy has been designed and tested, the first question that arises is: “And now, how?”

A new strategy, by definition, implies changes in what is being done. Growth acceleration, market share increase, profit improvement, quality upgrade and productivity increment are just some aspects that are implicit in any new strategy.

What needs to be accepted is that, as Sun Tzu said: “Battles are won or lost before they are fought” also “Strategies are successful or miscarriages before they are put into action”.

A strategy is successful if the necessary organization and the adequate work have been defined. This fact is implicit in the use of the Unicist Object Driven Organization model. It is a way to organize the work using “objects” within the processes maximizing the productivity and quality of work and minimizing costs.

The object driven organization enables focusing on the necessary processes to develop maximal strategies while the objects installed provide the framework for the minimum strategies. To do so it is necessary to develop a conceptual design of the solution in order to define the field of the organizational possibilities.

Start up businesses or expansion strategies of entrepreneurs require dealing with the nature of their markets. The Unicist Standard Language is the access to the Unicist Standard to design and manage the nature of businesses using objects.

“Dealing with Human Adaptive Systems necessarily is driven by complexity. Adaptive systems are complex in themselves but dealing with human adaptive systems adds a new complex component which is the ambiguity implicit in human behavior.

The existence of conscious and non-conscious aspects of human behavior produces naturally the existence of an ambiguous environment.

The purpose of adaptive system management is to influence human adaptive systems using the object driven technologies included in the Unicist Standard.

The development of the Unicist Standard Language was necessary to provide a context in order to understand, communicate and influence the management of human adaptive systems.”

Successful entrepreneurs are doers. They need to be doers in order to make things happen. Their ethic is driven by the goals they want to achieve.

Doers are individuals that basically produce their deeds based on their need of self-actualization and esteem that provides the necessary conditions to develop them. They do not hesitate in finding any way to develop a solution.

The more challenging the problem is the more sense of doing they have. Therefore doers are the individuals that naturally face complex problems to solve them. Only doers can develop strategies.

Doers have a powerful inner life. They need it in order to imagine actions and have the idea of the concept of what they are doing and how to achieve it, with or without the support of the environment.

Energy saving in business implies respecting the nature of each business. Business inventions do not exist, only discoveries are good businesses.

Green thinking implies understanding that each business is a different animal in the forest and that its identification allows developing the business according to its nature saving a large amount of energy that uses to be wasted trying to change what cannot be changed.

The Unicist Standard provides the necessary Unicist Business Objects and unicist object driven technologies to transform the concept of “Green Thinking” into action.

The notorious capacity of Procter & Gamble is given by the way it manages the social insertion of innovations.

We recommend watching the following two short presentations of Procter & Gamble at:

Innovation is the basis for economic growth.  Essentially, countries, cultures, institutions, and individuals grow only in the fields where they are open to innovations.

The purpose of innovation is to overcome scarcity. That is why only people or cultures that have the will, find the way to overcome scarcity.  This is the cultural context that fosters innovation.

The driver of innovation is human creation. The word creation is used in the sense of recreation. Humans create based on the existing energy.

The maximal strategy of innovations drives towards the solution of a scarcity. Therefore innovative organizations have the perception that they add value to the environment. But this is only true if the minimum strategy is also fulfilled.

The minimum strategy implies inserting the innovations into the social capital of the environment. Social capital is defined by the strength of the bonds that integrate the members of a community.

Commercial innovations need to be only one step ahead of the habits of the environment. If they are more than one step ahead they fail, unless there is an extreme need and they are, implicitly, a “back to basics”.

In this field Procter & Gamble is a notorious benchmark.

The archetype of China is a unique case of a culture that has the capacity to grow based on the internal consistency of its model, a model that became complementary to the globalization process.

We strongly recommend watching the following video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mRlgQKWlnQ

China’s Structure

China is a culture based on the consistency of the social and individual efforts and the capacity of accepting trade-offs to achieve the goals of the country.

The Chinese model has to be understood in itself without comparing it with other countries. It has multiple economic models working simultaneously. It is neither a communist nor a capitalist model. It uses multiple unique solutions which imply permanent trade-offs between the different models to achieve its growth.

The Communist Party can be considered as homologous to the ancient nobility in Europe but representing the interests of China as a country and the needs of its population.

Entering the Communist Party needs to be earned because within the party there has to be an ideological consistency to allow a democratic behavior. The Communist Party is the “Establishment” of China.

Confucius’ Concept

Confucianism is a functional philosophy for a culture that needs to grow in a context of an extremely large country with a large population. Order is necessary to sustain consistency.

Minorities in China have to behave within the limits of the explicit and implicit Chinese model. Censorship and self-censorship are a need to avoid that the culture loses its consistency. But although censorship becomes necessary in this context, it is also the implicit weakness of the Chinese archetype.

Cultures evolve based on their implicit weaknesses. Therefore, a generational change can be expected in this field depending on the new trade-offs the culture will make.

A Shielded Culture

China has been, is and will be a shielded archetype, protecting its culture and beliefs in order to ensure its consistency and allowing making the necessary trade-offs to grow.

This shield was represented by the Chinese Wall in the past, and now it is represented by the multiple regulations that establish the framework of the country.

Maximal Strategy

The maximal strategy of China is driven by the working capacity of the culture and the catalyst for the minimum strategy is their cultural shield that ensures the consistency of its actions. The cultural shield works as a protection from foreign influence and internal distortions.

Minimum Strategy

The minimum strategy is driven by the individual working capacity of its population. The entropy inhibitor, to ensure the achievement of growth, is the ideological shield that ensures the focus of the efforts on the objectives that are being achieved.

The personal capacity of making trade-offs is installed in the population and makes individuals extremely focused achievers.

To apprehend the Chinese archetype it is necessary to understand Doers, avoiding ideological, religious or social comparisons. China was, is and will be unique. China doesn’t base its expansion on exporting culture, but on exporting products.

Procter & Gamble is a world leader in innovation. This allows learning from P&G how to manage innovation to make it successful in the markets.

The Unicist Standard includes a fundamental approach to deal with innovations that allows integrating fundamentals with technical analytical knowledge to produce successful innovations.

The question we are posing is: Which are the fundamentals of innovation?

You can find information on how Procter & Gamble deals with innovations presented by Robert Bob McDonald, COO of Procter & Gamble. There are two short presentations at:

We invite you to apprehend the nature of China’s archetype. But consider that it is necessary to avoid comparisons with other cultures.

“The reach of one’s globalization is defined by the limit of the pronoun WE.”

If you are really interested in understanding the Chinese archetype we recommend listening to the lecture you find at:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mRlgQKWlnQ

We strongly recommend “reading between lines” to apprehend the fundamentals of the culture. Access the information on the unicist ontology of economic behavior at: http://www.unicist.org/papers/ontology_economy_en.pdf

Only if the culture is within the limits of your “WE” you will be able to perceive aspects of the Chinese archetype.

Next week you will have access to the essential aspects of China’s culture on this blog.
