WEBVTT 00:00:11.876 --> 00:00:15.876 Can you imagine that only in the US, the Patent Office has registered 00:00:15.876 --> 00:00:18.216 10 millions patents only last year ? 00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:22.920 So companies must be today ultra competitive in their core of business 00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:25.020 by exploring and exploiting at the same time. 00:00:31.534 --> 00:00:35.534 Exploitation is for a company using the existing knowledge to produce 00:00:35.534 --> 00:00:37.524 what they are used to do. 00:00:37.524 --> 00:00:39.794 And exploring is finding new experimentations, 00:00:39.794 --> 00:00:41.704 in order to create and innovate. 00:00:41.704 --> 00:00:45.604 In this context we can also speak about ambidexterity. 00:00:45.604 --> 00:00:48.234 It is the ability to simutaneously 00:00:48.234 --> 00:00:51.534 pursue both incremental and discontinue innovations. 00:00:51.534 --> 00:00:53.724 Many actual studies found a link 00:00:53.724 --> 00:00:57.334 between ambidexterity and firm financial performance. 00:01:04.394 --> 00:01:09.745 So the organizations have to find creative solutions always with efficiency 00:01:09.745 --> 00:01:14.495 and with control, in order to create and increase the competitiveness. 00:01:14.495 --> 00:01:16.285 If we look at Goole for example, 00:01:16.285 --> 00:01:23.525 all the employees are following the rules of 80/20 coming from the Pareto principle. 00:01:23.525 --> 00:01:28.065 80% of their time is dedicated to their general missions 00:01:28.065 --> 00:01:32.585 when the remaining 20% permits to feed the employees with 00:01:32.585 --> 00:01:33.675 exciting projects. 00:01:33.675 --> 00:01:35.095 In the last few years, 00:01:35.095 --> 00:01:38.095 these 20% has been the main success of Google 00:01:38.095 --> 00:01:41.695 with for example Google Chrome and Google Maps. 00:01:41.695 --> 00:01:44.765 That was the wonderful explorations that Google did. 00:01:44.765 --> 00:01:51.445 So as I said, the company has to be creative and always work with control, 00:01:51.445 --> 00:01:55.535 in order not to take any risk when they are lauching a new project. 00:02:02.646 --> 00:02:06.646 My recommandations would be to include all the employees in the process, 00:02:06.646 --> 00:02:10.646 for them to be a group of creativity, and where there is no hierarchy at all. 00:02:10.646 --> 00:02:13.116 The second would be to develop the employee initiative, 00:02:13.116 --> 00:02:18.786 as process and their creativity would happen and be embodied thanks to 00:02:18.786 --> 00:02:20.376 people in the company. 00:02:20.376 --> 00:02:24.376 The last one would be for the core of the company to communicate 00:02:24.376 --> 00:02:27.576 about the company strategy in order to be transparent 00:02:27.576 --> 00:02:30.566 and to help all the employees create new things.
