The three things our clients need to do to transform to an innovative culture

By Steven M. Worth, President at Plexus Consulting Group, LLC

The three things our clients need to do to transform to an innovative culture:

1. Be absolutely committed in their belief that what they do matters

Measurables:
• low staff turnover
• belief in the organization’s vision and mission and passionate about their role(s) in helping to realize them—as measured by achievement of strategic objectives

2. Have what Thomas Edison once described as his “idea factory”—an interactive, fact-driven structure that consistently turns out cutting edge products and services, as perceived by the market(s) the organization serves

Measurables:
• growing sales of products and services that the organization produces at prices that cover the full costs of production

3. Embody an outward turning culture that celebrates a core belief that each other’s success is as important as their own.

Measurables:
• The number and quality of successful strategic partnerships the organizations cultivates
