Catalyst Iteration – John Morley

Join us for an interview with John Morley, Business Design Strategist Hitachi. He has been a wicked Catalyst in some of the world’s largest companies including EMC and Hitachi, AppDynamics and Symantec. John describes how an open, iterative process can help organizations uncover new value. He described how he starts by using his Catalyst superpowers of sensing what needs to emerge through conversations, research, and reading lots and lots. He then identifies the mutual wins with a broad set of stakeholders and then co-creates a new vision. John shares the power of systems thinking in the iterating process and how he’s learned to leverage rejuvenation as a key support in not rushing headlong into action. One of John’s superpowers is being a super connector which also give him energy and sustains him on his journey. He speaks about the power of creating Catalyst networks both internally in large organizations as well as across organizations. Connecting with other Catalysts gives John the energy and insights to create impact.
