Ovation Global Strategies provides unique and distinctive consulting services that focus on the relationship between risk taking, growth, change and innovation, and how those in turn need to tie in with your leadership development and talent development strategies.
The reality is that growth requires people to change. Change in turn requires people to take risks, to embrace the new opportunities that arise, and to do things differently, because clearly just doing more of the same is not enough to drive an ambitious growth agenda. When you are asking people to do things differently, it is crucial to recognize that you are asking them to take risks. Some of those risks may be small, others will be large. But it is imperative to understand that you are asking them to take risks, and therefore to equip them such that they can maximize the success of the change.
Engineers say a new idea has been ‘invented’ when it is proven to work in the laboratory. The idea becomes an innovation only when it can be replicated reliably on a meaningful scale at practical costs. In engineering, when an idea moves from an invention to an innovation, diverse component technologies come together. Emerging from isolated developments in separate fields of research, these components gradually form an ‘ensemble of technologies’ that are critical to each other’s success. Until this ensemble forms, the idea, though possible in the laboratory, does not achieve its potential in practice. The same philosophy applies to developing a culture of culture of calculated risk-taking in your organization.
Our consulting services in this arena focus on the critical factors that converge to create a culture of calculated risk taking in organizations for you to be able to optimize your leadership development and talent development, and thereby enable growth.
