Collective Campus hosted Disrupt the Public Sector, its annual conference on innovation in Government, for the third time this year as part of the Australian Government’s Innovation Month 2017. I had the pleasure of facilitating a panel discussion on the topic of how to ‘make things happen’ in Government - which loosely translates to how to we transform Government to one that attracts top talents, is adaptable in the face of rapid change and uses its position to create more impact in society, rather than hide behind the veil of using taxpayer dollars as an excuses not to innovate which is incorrectly perceived as being risky (it is if you take few large bets instead of many small ones) and outsourcing accountability. Public sector spending in the Australian state of Victoria has almost doubled in the past 10 years, whereas in the private sector we see organisations like Netflix (entertainment), Khan Academy (education) and Minute Clinic (healthcare) achieving much more with much less in this time thanks to their ability to spot trends and opportunities and use emerging technologies to enable creating impact with less capital investment. Imagine a Government, with its wealth of resources, that moved just a little bit more like a Netflix? About our panelists: Jamie Skella Entrepreneur, futurist & strategist Jamie Skella is considered a thought leader in technology design, building and advising businesses across AI, blockchain, exports, and even future food.

While there’s much talk emanating out of Silicon Valley nowadays that “pivot is the new fail”, when the term first gained popularity off the back of the lean startup movement in the early 2010s it effectively meant making a fundamental shift in your business model, based on customer learnings, towards one that is designed to bring you closer to product market fit. Whether it’s changing your target customer segment, your distribution channels, your marketing strategy, pricing model or the very nature of your solution, a pivot in business is much like a pivot in basketball, keeping one foot planted firmly on the ground while shifting the other foot. A pivot done well, can be a thing of beauty and something that both large corporate innovation teams and startup founders can take much inspiration from. So with that, here are 10 of our team’s favourite company pivots of all time. --- Listen on iTunes @ goo.gl/sMnEa0 Listen on Stitcher @ www.stitcher.com/podcast/future Listen on Google Play bit.ly/FSGoog If you've got any questions on this podcast feel free to send an email to steve@collectivecamp.us or tweet me on Twitter @steveglaveski or @future_squared Follow me on Instagram: @thesteveglaveski Like us?

Large organisations are engaging startups in growing numbers, due in part to a realisation that companies have not been built to respond to the accelerating pace of change in a timely manner, and that short of restructuring the entire organisation from the ground up, partnering with startups who are unencumbered by bureaucracy, short-term shareholder demands and employee incentives, is an easier way to tap into emerging technologies, business models and talent. This makes sense for most large organisations given that startups tend to explore disruptive innovations - usually low margin, small market and high risk to begin with - don’t support short term and often large company growth targets, but if left unchecked, may be the source of dwindling market share a few years down the track (here’s looking at you Blockbuster for passing up the opportunity to buy Netflix for US$50M - the company is today worth 140 times that). In this episode I run through eight ways that corporates can connect with startup ecosystems and engage startups to work collaboratively towards their mutual goals - some light touch and others that require a more serious commitment of time and money. --- Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/where you can discuss episodes, request guests, propose questions for forthcoming guests and access exclusive content and special offers!

I facilitated a panel discussion on innovation in Government recently and was asked whether or not Government has a responsibility to keep its workforce employed in the face of technological change.
