The #Superpower of #SuperAccelerators is #Simplicity

Give me 30 sec to explain...

(This is all based upon Heidrick & Struggles research)

H&S defined 4 kinds of Simplicity:

1️⃣ 𝗜𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗜𝗖 𝗦𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬

Top-down simplicity

benefitting the whole org,

stemming from policy change

agreed on by exec leadership.

2️⃣ 𝗖𝗥𝗢𝗦𝗦-𝗙𝗨𝗡𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗦𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬

Occurs at the interface between

functions, business units, or teams;

such as reducing complexity in how

Product & GTM functions work with each other.

3️⃣ 𝗙𝗨𝗡𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗦𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬

Applies to a function, business unit, or team,

such as a sales team simplifying how

it sets goals or reports information

4️⃣ 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝗦𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬

Targets day-to-day activities such as

meetings, emails, or written communications.

Some teams at P&G use a one-page doc

to share ideas instead of lengthy PowerPoints.

Simplicity is NOT easy.

That's why complexity is so rampant.

One of the primary roles I play for my clients

is that of the "Simplifying Agent".

We identify areas of complexity

and then streamline rigorously.

There's a process by which I help my clients simplify

to improve execution in both speed and outcomes.
