But often, the fault doesn’t lie with the team members, our research suggests. Rather, it rests with leaders who fail to effectively tap diverse work styles and perspectives—even at the senior-most levels. Some managers just don’t recognize how profound the differences between their people are; others don’t know how to manage the gaps and tensions or understand the costs of not doing so.

Few companies need to be sold on the benefits of digitization. McKinsey research shows that companies have lofty ambitions: they expect digital initiatives to deliver annual growth and cost efficiencies of 5 to 10 percent or more in the next three to five years. Yet despite the often-substantial investments companies have made in digital initiatives, few see that kind of growth.

Innovation Requires Two Cultures. By Professor Daniel Huber There is good news and bad news for big corporations about their innovation efforts.

Thinking through the management of innovation have you ever considered the Three Horizons approach? It is likely through this approach business leaders can adopt an evolutionary perspective across the entire innovation business portfolio. Enduring Ideas: The three horizons of growth. In this interactive presentation—one in a series of multimedia frameworks—Steve Coley, a director emeritus in McKinsey’s Chicago office, describes the three horizons framework.

As companies mature, they often face declining growth as innovation gives way to inertia. In order to achieve consistent levels of growth throughout their corporate lifetimes, companies must attend to existing businesses while still considering areas they can grow in the future. The three horizons framework—featured in The Alchemy of Growth, —provides a structure for companies to assess potential opportunities for growth without neglecting performance in the present.
