In various presentations, papers and books on innovation or leadership I have come across an organisational pattern I like to call “Startup then Core”. It is a pattern based on the idea that a new dawning business needs a special kind of leadership and special people, skilled and prepared to innovate in an uncertain world. Those in favour of this pattern also suggests that a mature business with “Execution” as its main mission needs leadership and people aimed to dwell in a more repeatable and secure world.

Modern Product Development
What many Startup fans seems seem to have missed is that modern Product Development, for an established business, has been tailored to handle all sorts of uncertainty. There In fact much of the same uncertainty a startup is facing. There are well proven frameworks and techniques that supports the simulatinous development of the current business as well as any future business. It is true, many organisations are still working too bureaucratic and without acceptance of uncertainty. However the absolute majority is trying to adopt new and modern ways of working. The same goes for Operations which I think is more mature than Product Development in general. Continuous improvements, automation and empowering of people have been around for ages. The target is ever increasing volumes, productivity and the superior quality.
