The Five Critical Success Factors
for New Ventures (By: Peter Drucker)
-
A focus on the market
-
Financial foresight, especially
in planning for cashflow and capital needs ahead
-
Building a top management team
long before the new venture actually needs one and long
before it can actually afford one
-
A decision by the founding
entrepreneur in respect of his or her own role, area
of work, and relationship
-
For in-company ventures in an
established business, insulating the new venture
Building Management
Team
The core team should be picked very
carefully because its business and interpersonal style becomes the
foundation of the company's culture and grows the value system. They
should have an impressive track record, skills, and depth of
experience in the areas most important to the sustainable
competitive advantage of the company. Don't settle for a few average
employees – "if you want a track team to win the high jump, you find
one person who can jump seven feet, not seven people who can jump
one foot."
When building your management team,
remember also that top-quality people often emerge from
bankruptcies. Prior bankruptcy experience is valuable – failure has
its rewards. It is often better to hire a leader who learned from
mistakes than it is to hire someone who was just lucky.
You would also need to learn how to
manage less and lead more through decentralizing, organizing groups
and delegating responsibilities. Learning to distinguish between the
core activities, that cannot be delegated, from non-core activities,
that must be delegated, is what often separates successful
entrepreneurs from business failures.
The core activities that must be
performed by the entrepreneur – because no one else can perform them
as well as the company founder – are those that give the company its
competitive advantage over other companies in the industry.
Take a Different View
It was by taking a different view of a
traditional business that major innovations were achieved. To find a
better creative solution to the current practice, force yourself to
reframe the problem, to break down its components and assemble them
in a different way.
Combining the Unusual
The vast majority of new ideas are not
original but derived from something else. Most great ideas are
really combinations of other ideas. When asked about the secrets of
his success, Henry Ford answered, "The simple secret of my genius is
that I created something new out of the ideas and inventions of
others."
Driving Radical
Innovation
Adapted from “Radical Innovation,”
Harvard Business School
"Here is the paradox: You need a great
team of people with diverse skills to perform a symphony well, but
no team has ever written a great symphony!“ While cross-functional
teams are key players in driving incremental innovation projects,
cross-functional disruptive individuals tend to be key players in
defining radical innovation projects. Individuals who are likely to
excel in a radical innovation project, besides having superior
technical capabilities, should be goal-oriented, broadly educated,
creative, extremely bright, not afraid to be different, integrative,
flexible, passionate, entrepreneurial, aggressive, eager to learn
business, able to take risks, and inquisitive.
Three
Self-Motivational Competencies of Outstanding Performers
1. Achievement Drive: Challenging
assumptions and strive to improve standards of excellence.
2. Commitment: Embracing the organization's or groups vision and
goals.
3. Initiative and Optimism: Twin competencies that mobilize people
to seize opportunities and allow them to take setbacks and obstacles
in stride.
Entrepreneurial
Action
Entrepreneur is a person who habitually
creates and innovates to build something of recognized value around
perceived opportunities. He starts from scratch and brings into
being something that was not there before. Entrepreneurship is first
and foremost a mindset. It is the art of finding and developing
profitable solutions to problems – fast!
And much more!
