Pedro Moneo is an innovation engineer. He is the founder and CEO of Opinno, a consulting company that helps clients to execute open innovation and prepare to remain competitive in the future.
In this episode we talk about the conflict between dynamism and sustainability, the construction of a platform for human survival and the importance of an organization's size to support long term thinking.
I really enjoyed talking to Pedro and I hope you will enjoy the conversation too.
Key take aways
- Doesn’t matter if you are a governor, CEO or a parent: the dilemma is how do you accommodate long-term thinking with short-term response
- Because short term solutions can make problems worse in the future, but long term definitive solutions can unpopular and dramatic in the present, the future will be hybrid.
- Everyone needs a roadmap for the future and long term bets, but the structure of companies and governments don’t allow for long-term thinking
- Size matters for long term strategy. The future doesn't belong to microsocieties. Macroblocks can have long term bets while keeping national identity
- When capital was rare and expensive, value was driven by cost cutting and pursue of efficiency. In the age of abundant capital, value is driven by sales and growth.
