Big Ideas Don't Fit in Big Companies

Great idea, but first I need you to finish this TPS report.I've realized that if there's one thing that big companies don't understand...it's new ideas. I guess when you're taught to follow the leader and do as your told, it makes sense. Why step out of line? Why take chances? As a result you have organizations that play it safe...too safe. They wait for someone else to come up with an idea, and then wait for that idea to evolve into a safe option before jumping on. Of course by then it's too late.
As a result, you are left with more employees who are not happy at their jobs, and not happy with the direction that their company is heading. There is an answer to this. Big companies need to empower their employees. Employees need to contribute and do things outside the norm without being penalized. I don't mean taking shits in the company bathroom sink. I mean, coming up with new ideas and strategies which are embraced by sr. mgmt.
Some companies start out with this progressive approach. But then over time, the innovation and uniqueness gives way to dollars and cents. Watch a company like Google 20 years from now. Hopefully this won't happen to them. Let's face facts, your TPS report is more important to your company than your ideas.
