Future Results is a consulting service defining new operating models for big organisations to innovate like small startups while using their strengths.Enterprise organisations are being impacted by new market challengers. To succeed in the 21st century, they must learn new ways to:a) continuously innovate with their existing products and services, and b) learn to test market disruption to find new business opportunitiesToday's most successful Startup companies make products and services customers 'love' because they simply solve their problems. They achieve this cheaply and quickly using lean methods for continuous learning by experimenting with real customers and without fear of failure.Traditional corporations can't compete as their operating processes are built for businesses at scale. Business models are incompatible with startup ways of working in areas like:• Financial forecasting - business case drivers are defined in advance so ideas can't change• Success measures - reporting focuses on margin, arpu, etc, not user engagement metrics• Roadmaps - dates and costs are locked at the start of projects, discourging change• Initiative pipeline - too few ideas are investigated so businesses must be built that will fail• Employment - many varied staff are needed due to narrow and specific job roles• Bonuses - paid on pre-determined targets which discourages learning and change• Brand protection - ideas can't be publically tested if they are seen as incomplete and buggy• Legal/Regulatory - engagements are slow due to long-term scopes needing risk protection• Information security - long-term view of customer data blocks fast hosted infrastructure• IT policy - access to many startup tools, sites and apps is restricted from corporate PC's • Culture - failure is slow and seen as negative, not fast and praised for learning and progress• And more...Get in touch to discuss how to solve issues like these in your company and ensure your future results...

The Digital Transformation Office’s vision is that government services should be simpler, clearer, and faster for users, just as services are in other parts of users’ lives. People should be able to get things done with government easily. I help the DTO and Government agency teams to rapidly test early stage ideas, and discover ways to add the most value to users of Government services. I do this through coaching, strategic consulting, events, and I blend methods like Lean Startup, Agile and Design Thinking in a way public service can use safely and quickly.
