Do you see change as an opportunity or a threat?

Use this 8 questions assessment to see if your organization and your companies in your community are ready for change and are prepared to exploit it.

On a sliding scale (1=low through 5=high) rank the extent to which you agree with each statement.

  1. Our organization sees change as an opportunity not a threat
    2. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
  2. We actively look at different areas as a source of opportunities to exploit (e.g. the unexpected, process weakness, demographics, etc.).
    3. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
  3. Our organization knows that pure R&D is the riskiest source of innovations and understands the specific implications and conditions to exploit it.
    4. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
  4. We focus more on the effect our new product/service will have on our end user and the business environment than on the product/service per se.
    5. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
  5. We know that "quality" is not what we think it is (or a technical attribute) but what our end users consider value.
    6. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
  6. Our leaders clearly understand that if we do not innovate we will not last long and as innovators, they also understand that if we do not manage we will not last long either.
    7. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
  7. Our organization successfully transforms knowledge (information, ideas) into action and behaviour visible in our business community.
    8. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
  8. Our organization is constantly putting on trial old products, services, and old ways of doing, i.e. we practice abandoning things so we can make room for tomorrow.
    9. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
