2 Leading in Difficult & Uncertain Times Eagles may soar high but. weasels don t get sucked into jet engines
3 Leading in Difficult & Uncertain Times Want to do Spontaneous Adventures Strategic Projects & Programmes Don t want to do Crisis Events Compliance Projects & Programmes Unplanned Planned

8 Chaos Complex or Complicated?
9 UK Airways System
10 PPM Maturity Levels 5 World Class Continuous process improvement, success is normal 4 Competitive Controlled and measured processes, results more in line with plans 3 Compliant Standardised, more predictable 2 Minimal Some process, inconsistent success 1 Ad Hoc Disorganised, accidental success
11 PPM Strategic Advantage Strategic Contribution Limit of process based approach 5 World-class: redefines delivery in the industry, automatically improving, very hard to imitate by competitors, drives business strategy. 4 Competitive: provides source of competitive advantage, focused, metrics determine areas for improvement, supports business strategy. 3 Compliant: follows industry-accepted norms, improvements sporadic, process-focused, cost of failure significant, little strategic contribution 2 Minimal: tasked with not messing up, some use of standards, reactive, high cost of failure, negative strategic contribution. 1 Ad hoc: unreliable delivery, very high cost of failure, strongly negative strategic contribution

15 Hugh Dowding Head of RAF Fighter Command Complex/Dynamic More with less
16 Fighter Command System
17 Deals with Structural Complexity
18 Deals with Dynamic Complexity
19 Hugh Dowding Head of Fighter Command Leigh Mallory Keith Park
20 Approach Engage in pure fighter raids Engage bomber raids after they bomb Big Wing standing patrols Shoot down lots of planes Pursue stragglers over the sea Douglas Bader Pilots are a individualistic risk taking heroes
21 Approach Do not engage pure fighter raids Engage bomber raids before they bomb Scramble early hit and run Aim to break up formations Do not pursue stragglers over the sea Pilots are part of an integrated team
22 The Luftwaffe: strategically incoherent Bomb Ports Bomb Factories Bomb RAF Bomb London Goering
23 Hitler expects to terrorise and cow the people of this mighty city Little does he know the spirit of the British nation, or the tough fibre of the Londoners. The Blitz
24 Now Park could really do his stuff
25
26
27 So What? Have a clear vision/strategy Do more with less - focus Turn on the radar! Know where you/the enemy are Have simple/flexible/agile systems Bend/make the rules Communicate and integrate... Lead/empower/trust Embrace risk & complexity But...
28 Leadership of Change There is nothing more difficult to arrange, more doubtful of success and more dangerous to carry through, than initiating change. The change leader makes enemies of all those who prospered under the old order and only lukewarm support is forthcoming from those who would prosper under the new.
29 Socio Political Complexity High Programme Complex Dynamic Structural Dimension Project Agile Low Low Dynamic High
30 If ever any one man won the Battle of Britain, Keith Park did. I don t believe it is recognised how much this one man, with his leadership, his calm judgment and his skill, did to save not only this country, but the world. Lord Tedder Chief of the Royal Air Force February 1947
