Executive summary

To succeed organizations need to be UNIQUE and think as a
START UP
This requires Leaders (leaders ≠ managers) and
distributed authority system
Traditional motivation do not work. Comparing employees btw
themselves and selecting “the best employee of the month/year”
humiliates and demotivates. Personalized assessment and
motivation – based on exact person skills and development
goals - is a need
“Work Life Flexibility” replaces “Work-Life” balance,
Mobility is a great helper in management
Modern HR needs technologies
Business optimization under the pressure of economic slowdown does not help to succeed. Technological progress can not be stopped. Companies need to be UNIQUE and think as a START UP or be out, or be in low margin business
Company needs to think
as a Start UP
Employee needs to be Entrepreneur
Company and Employee need to
be UNIQUE
Economy slowdown, sanctions, weak Ruble
High speed of technology progress
it took electricity ~50 years to achieve 90%
penetration, for refrigerators ~30 years,
for mobile phones ~20 years
Cloud, Mobility, Analytics, Social – today are not trends but platform, Digital World is a trend
Robots already strong in consumer market
Term “industry” is disappearing. Today internet
companies are also banks, even more they are their competitors
Business– despite political tensions –getting global. And workforce also …

For HR this means focus on new skills – growing LEADERS first off, also introducing new organizational rules and structures
High Skills focus. No Mid or Low Skills. Low Skills replaced by machines, Mid Skills of less need in Innovative environment
New Skills – DigitalPeople who know how to connect business – client (person) – client (things) and not only.
Distributed Authority system Hierarchy organizational structure is “yesterday”. In Distributed Authority system everyone
is a leader in their role, Expertise not job titles are constituent of status and influence
Collective mind for innovationsPeople working together through connection and collaboration, both internally and
externally
Work Life Flexibility replaces the Concept of Work Life BalanceWork when needed, Mobility, Free workers, etc.
and who will drive this all ?
Leaders (leaders ≠ managers)
– they think, challenge existing & create new business models
– they provide direction
– they inspire others

Often organizations have good Managers not Leaders. Growing Leaders requires a systematic approach
“We have strong managers,
not leaders — and we need
strong leaders to achieve our
strategic objectives”
said a U.K. HR director
“We have hired and trained
people to work in silos. We
need to identify future leaders
who can operate in a globally
integrated company and train
them to think and work
globally”
Senior vice president of HR in
the United States

Look beyond headquarters• Identify and cultivate rising stars regardless of location.
• Use global issues facing the organization as the basis for
real-life learning experiences.
• Offer short-term, focused opportunities for individuals to
work in new markets/geographies.
Nurture creative leaders• Provide opportunities for creative leaders to move beyond
traditional leadership styles.
• Incorporate external perspectives (e.g., suppliers,
customers) into leadership development efforts.
Create rigor around leadership
investments• Analyze future business trends to determine leadership
requirements for emerging business opportunities/locations.
• Create company-specific models, processes and
assessment tools for leadership roles.
• Monitor job progression of potential future leaders from
around the globe.
How to grow a Leader
10
Distributed authority system - where everyone is a Leader - is a need to create innovative climate in a company
To create UNIQUE products, you need people
with free mind, authority to make decisions and good sense of accountability
Thus no job titles, no managers, no hierarchy
Extension of rights and responsibilities is the core of the company “rules of games”
Everyone becomes a leader in their role and a follower of others
Holocracy
empowerment is integrated into the core of
the organization. Everyone becomes a leader
Special credit goes to Ann-Victoire Pince, IBM France, for sharing
experience on Holocracy and Wirearchy.

One last important comment for this part
People are your assets, not liabilitiesAlexander Gaertner, CFO, IBM Russia/CIS
14
Staff appraisal is a delicate process. If you have “runners” and “swimmers” in one
team, choosing the best performer btw them is not fair. Now when you have
“everyone” being a Leader – you need to think of some new motivations
If jobs are
not 100% same
For some jobs “best performer” may still apply, but we are
focusing on the Leaders, Entrepreneurs and alike, right?
If jobs are
100% same
Special credit goes to Elena Belova, Business Controls and Risks Manager, IBM Russia/CIS, for the idea to
illustrate the team with “swimmers” and “runners”
you leave your staff frustrated of what to do to be
the Best. If they don’t see clear goal – they are
seldom motivated
are you sure you are in Innovative company?

Business can learn from Olympic Champions of how to win. When in race –
they switch focus on performing their best
2 components to a Olympic winning attitude:
Desire to win (externally driven)
Desire to perform
your best (internally driven)
When the race, good Olympians switch
their focus – from worrying about
winning to worrying about performing
their best

After the race, they'll assess their
performance not just on the outcome
but on how well they competed

raced not against her competition but against the clock

took to the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.
She does not put any pressure on herself to win,
only to do her best and have fun while doing it

Olympic Attitude: What they thought when they achieved
• Valery Kharlamov (VK): "I can not play like before. "
• Anatoly Tarasov (AT) "Who told you that? It is just you who decides if you can or can not! Only you and nobody else! You have to play!"
• VK: "I'm not going to Canada championship."
• AT: "Why to talk about Canada? Are you playing with the purpose to go to Canada championship? Are you playing for the sake of fame and awards? You must live, got it? Live and not for Canada championship. Live and play. And make choices, Valera, every day! Your number is 17, the whole world knows it."

Obstacles That Stop You From Being a Winner:• focusing on the outcome
rather than the activity• obsession with comparing
yourself to others
Focusing on outcome, comparing employees with each other stops from winning.
Personalized assessment and motivation – based on exact person skills and
development goals - is a need
=> You need to adopt internal ways to measure your performance, rather than just comparing yourself against other people
Do you help your employee to perform = to win ?
Do your comparisons make sense?
May be you want to consider prizes for everyone who is unique?
Say “Innovator”, not best Innovator, just Innovator?
Olympic Attitude: What stops, what motivates
19
Some more proves of how comparing people is not good &
what is really important for personal motivation and growth

5 Qualities Google Looks for in New Hires
1. General Cognitive Ability and it’s not I.Q, learning ability. It’s the ability to process on the fly. It’s the ability to pull together disparate bits of information.
2. Emergent Leadership. Interviewers at Google want candidates who will know when it's necessary to step up and lead a team, and when to step back, help carry out a project, and let someone else take charge. Both taking and relinquishing power at the appropriate time is critical to being an effective leader.
3. Humility. people who are the most successful here, who we want to hire, will have a fierce position. They’ll argue like hell. They’ll be zealots about their point of view. But then you say, ‘here’s a new fact,’ and they’ll go, ‘Oh, well, that changes things; you’re right.’ You need a big ego and small ego in the same person at the same time.“
4. Ownership. Taking ownership of a project brings with it a sense of responsibility. Good employees can't wait to be given a problem or a task. They need to feel a sense of ownership that drives them to find new problems to be solved and opportunities to take advantage of.
5. Expertise. Google isn't simply looking for traditional scholars. Bock mentioned the “proportion of people without any college education at Google has increased over time” — now as high as 14 percent on some teams. This is one of the big ideas that drives us at Code Fellows. There are Computer Scientists who go the traditional route through the university system, which is massively important. But there is also a huge set of self-learners and people who've been through bootcamps who are software engineers. Google sees the value in both.
