Brand marketing offers tremendous scope for lateral thinking. In the UK there are several price comparison sites for services such as car or house insurance. How can you differentiate yourself? One of the most well-known brands is Comparethemarket.com. Its whole branding, messaging and advertising is posited on one ridiculously obscure piece of lateral thinking – that customers might confuse the words market and meerkat and so search for comparethemeerkat.com.

Lately, when I talk to people in large organizations, universities and corporations, I feel like I'm in the middle of a country western song, or a Dickens novel. People and leaders tell me they are distracted, dismayed, disappointed, exhausted, and wondering what the future will hold. It seems difficult to make decisions in the era of COVID, where every peak we reach seems to be a false peak.

For work that has not been done before, there’s no right answer. The only wrong answer is to say “no” to trying something new. Sure, it might not work. But, the only way to guarantee it won’t work is to say no to trying. If innovation projects fail nine out of ten times, you can increase the number of projects you try or you can get better at choosing the projects to say no to.

Lean or the Toyota Production System often gets an unfair rap for being "anti-technology." Some of this mindset results from the old debate between using Material Resource Planning (MRP) computer systems to plan production or the more visual Lean methods of kanban cards and heijunka boxes. Even Toyota uses MRP systems, but they used them in their proper role—long-term planning instead of day-to-day execution.

In the middle of the ‘extremes’ of incremental improvement and M&A is Incubation, where you have the most control, influence, and flexibility in regards to costs and outcomes – i.e. the most options. Unfortunately, this is often an area of underperformance, or else it stays too close to the core and delivers little to no net-new.

Start-ups & SMBs launching products quickly must bundle dashboards, reports, & self-service analytics into apps. Customers expect rapid value from your product (time-to-value), data security, and access to advanced capabilities. Traditional Business Intelligence (BI) tools can provide valuable data analysis capabilities, but they have a barrier to entry that can stop small and midsize businesses from capitalizing on them.
