Purpose Driven Organisation

Critical Factor of Innovative Organisations No. 1

I have worked with many organisations on innovation for many years and there are a number of critical factors organisations must have in order to be innovative. Here is one of the ten factors I have identified.

Purpose Driven Organisation

What is she fighting for?

Who is she fighting for?

What she is fighting with?

These are questions an organisation must find answers for before she seeks to be innovative.

Why?

Because, in the eyes of her people, the answers give meaning to the organisation . The answers also provide a sense of purpose for her people.

With these, an overriding urge for being that purpose, of having the outcomes, and of doing with intent is borned. This is the urge of PASSION. People, who is touched, moved, and inspired, will look passionately at how these questions are asked, and how their answers are manifested for the:

continued existence and survival of the organisation,

for without, the last question cannot be answered

meaningful contribution to the higher cause by the individual,

for without, nothing will be ignited

Passion Is Power

It is on this fabric that creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship comes into existance......

Here are the links for the other critical factors of innovative organisations:

There is a total of ten such factors and here is a list of the nine:

• No 2. Understanding the Demonic Nature of Vision

• No 3. Risks of Playing No Games & Being Off the Board
