Going from best to next practices! ?? ?

Going from best to next practices… this is one of the concepts I explain in my keynotes.?

Many sectors are ‘best practice’ optimised, which is good, yet also limits further improvements and at a certain moment... silo thinking sets in. So as fellow author Jim Collins already stated: it’s time to go from ‘Good to Great’!

Keep on reading for 7 key benefits of cross-industry approaches for next practices!

The 'infuuts' ?!

A wonderful example of a ’next practice’ is the ‘infuuts’ a drip/bicycle ?????? for kids.

The infuuts is a combination between a bicycle and a drip (in Dutch ‘Infuus & fiets’). This device was created to allow young kids to move around the 'Prinses Máxima Centrum voor kinderoncologie’ children’s cancer hospital, while still being connected to their drip.

Such an amazing combination… a cool next practice!

And the team at the hospital consists of true ideaDJs ?

Using approaches from other sectors / industries, can help you and your organisation?to jump to next practices to deliver more value to customers and make a positive societal impact!

7 key benefits of a cross-industry approach:

• Best practice thinking continually optimises silo's and sectors, so the potential for cross-industry approaches is therefore quite high, hence next practices!
• Expertise from another industry can generally be used without competitive conflicts.
• Making broader use of advances helps a company lower costs and generate additional revenue from its own investments in development.
• Project risks and development time can be reduced by using expertise from another industry.
• Opening up different types of skills and combining them across industries can help a company improve its own innovation capacity.
• A company gains new perspectives on its own product or service range by focusing on essential factors for success and on analogies.
• Experimentation leads to valuable insights, to be able to do experiments business leaders need to become more comfortable and subtle about failure (managed risk).

Looking forward to see how you go to next practices and how you are transforming your business/life. Let me know. ???
