    Next or Back to the Future?

    Current events may have us all longing for the ‘good ole days.’  Sounds good on paper but not something any of us can realize.  Nostalgia aside we all must continue to slog on.  It is after all a one-way trip and there is no Delorean to help us.

    The Challenge of Change

    People change all the time and we have covered this before in this series a number of times.  However, some change is not without transformational difficulties.  The literature is replete with case studies where organization/industry transformation failed and sometimes spectacularly.

    Depending on one’s perspective sometime during February or March of this year, the global population became generally aware of a new and potentially devastating pathogen.  Dramatic (even draconian) measures were taken, and we were all convinced of the potential for global devastation.  Global Stay-At-Home orders wrecked economies but most of us dutifully obeyed.

    As of this writing, in a world of almost 8 billion people, according to a credible source, Johns Hopkins:

    • Cumulative Cases; Less than 8 million
    • Deaths; Less than 500k
    • Recovered; Approximately 3.7 million

    Rarely, emphasized math suggests that there are approximately 3.7 million Active cases.

    For those of you in the US (~330 million) like I am, the math looks like this:

    • Cumulative Cases; Just over 2 million
    • Deaths; Approximately 116k
    • Recovered; Approximately 560k

    Active US cases are approximately 1.4 million.

    Credibility Factor

    We have been told Covid-19 Armageddon was at hand.  Hospitals would be overwhelmed, etc.  No Mask and now Mask.  Most show few if any symptoms.  Now asymptomatic will kill the elderly and so it goes.  This list of contradictory positions goes on and change is justified by our “New Knowledge” about the pathogen.

    So What?

    Now we are told a new wave is coming from Memorial Day celebrations, protests and more from the phasing out of the lockdown.  How is the population reacting to these new pronouncements of doom?

    By engaging in normal human interactions.  Mask free in many cases to the chagrin of the medical experts.  One expert suggested that the United States does not have a coherent Covid-19 national policy.

    From my high school Civics, class, ”Enumerated powers are specific powers granted to Congress by the United States Constitution.  The framers of the Constitution wanted to ensure the new federal government would not become an overreaching entity that might subject the people to the oppression from which they had fled.  To that end, they listed, in Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution, the authority over certain specific things.  Authority over every issue not enumerated, or assigned to Congress, is reserved for the individual states.”

    My interpretation, States are the governing body for most activities including a pandemic.

    Therefore, each state is charged with managing this process within federal law, taking guidance from resources such as the Center for Disease Control.  This is 200+ year-old policy.

    Failure to Launch

    In recent days, this writer has encountered numerous individuals seemingly in violation of the tenets of Covid-19 response.  After months of predicting the end of human interaction as we have known it and in the face of numbers that just don’t add up, we are told it isn’t over yet.  Seemingly entrenched positions prevail although data and subsequent rationale are fungible.

    Lessons Learned

    Much is being said about fundamental changes to industry, i.e., oil and gas, airlines, and others.  Societal change is presented as fait accompli and the time is now!

    The history of transformation does not support these hypotheses.

    Sustained change requires significant ongoing energy from catalysis.  Not the continuation of exogenous events but continued commitment to answer the What’s In It for Me question we all ask when confronted with a new model.

    Current events will fade and life as we knew it will likely continue.  To be sure, there will be some change but disruptive transformation in the social fabric pundits are predicting are unlikely based on the past and typical human behavior.

  • Agility, Resiliency, Sustainability

    Agility, Resiliency, Sustainability

    In a recent Harvard Business Review, I was struck by an article about Best Practices for small businesses.  From that piece, “To successfully navigate Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) challenges like Covid-19, family business leaders can look to best practices from another organization that specializes in VUCA situations—the U.S. military’s Special Operations Forces (SOF)” (emphasis added).  There are a lot of good ideas in the article that organizations can implement immediately.  Moreover, we have long recognized that properly vetted and adjusted as necessary, Best Practices from others can add significant value to organizations in other industries.

    Out of the Darkness

    It is easy to be overwhelmed these days.  Mildly put, most if not all organizations were thrown into chaos in less than a month.  Depending on your business you are either partially operating or still waiting to open-up.

    Regardless, how you work in June will be different than early March (~60 days as of this writing).  Traditional recession management and recovery techniques may not be applicable this time.

    There are lots of ideas about how to use technology going forward.  Digitalization, IoT, IT-OT, among others are hawked as THE solution.  Problem is, it is not that simple, and it takes time and money to implement.  Many midsize firms do not have those privileges/resources.

    There are a lot of actions most organizations can take without major CAPEX investments in time and money.

    Years ago, we recognized that certain industrial sectors, particularly those with a high-risk profile such as energy or others deemed to be part of Critical Infrastructures face unique challenges.  Some have a tendency towards incremental change or even the status quo.  Change is often slow with setbacks.

    Moreover, for every major firm there can be thousands of organizations in the supply chain ecosystems all of which must work well if total costs and profitability for all are to be effectively addressed.

    This seemingly daunting task yet it need not be.  There is a solution set available that can help organizations manage through this dark period and into the light, thriving.

    The mission of The Rapid Response Institute is;

    “Helping Clients Achieve Organizational Agility, Resiliency and Sustainability”

    To that end, we have developed solutions, methodologies, and tools enabling enterprises of all sizes to not just survive but thrive after disruptive events.  Much of this is either free or at low cost.

    Rapid Response

    In our 2009 White Paper, Rapid Response Management: Thriving in the New World Order we posited our new approach to managing your business.  “Rapid Response Management (RRM) is an organizational construct or mental model that enables the organization and its key partners to rapidly sense changes and respond accordingly–quickly.  While it maximizes the effectiveness of management knowledge to address change, it is not simply gut feel.  Rather it is a simple yet sophisticated, methodical paradigm any organization can quickly and inexpensively implement.”

    RRM is a creative and well documented method for running your business.  The thinking was well advanced by 2009 and has been further ‘stress tested’ over the past decade.

    We have updated RRM with our Operational Excellence Platform and interested readers are invited to check that out as well.  Our offerings are designed to help our clients get through crises such as Covid-19.

    We are updating this white paper and it will be available as an e-book in the near future.  If you would like to reserve a free copy, Contact us.

    We are here to shed some light during this dark period.  For no cost, no obligation discussion contact us.  We can put decades of experience dealing with business cycle adversity on your team.

    Feel like your trapped?  You’re NOT!

  • Disrupting Disruption!

    Disrupting Disruption!

    Let me understate, ‘working in the petroleum sector has always been challenging.’  Now we find ourselves in a major economic downturn caused by a Covid-19 pandemic and aided and abetted by an international crude oil price war.

    Once again, many thousands have lost their livelihood and possibly not return to a similar job as the industry consolidates and restructures both organizationally and operationally.  However, much has changed and for the better since this writer first experienced a major retraction in the 1980s.

    Back in the day, choices then included sending hundreds of hardcopy resumes hoping the right person would find/like it out of an overflowing inbox or leave the sector and look for better pastures.  Collectively, impacted individuals tried both.  Certainly, there was not a feeling that we were in command of our destiny, even if we knew someone who could help us.

    Today, we are the Master and Commander of our voyage!

    I See Things

    Visions of armies of energy workers becoming software programmers are probably hallucinations.  Some might but many will not have the ability, temperament or interest in such a feat.

    There are always winners and losers in any disruption.  Already, there are signs that the traditional retail sales processes are accelerating on a path they were already on.  Upscale restaurants now feature ‘take out.’

    Some who once worked for manufacturers, oil producers and other core companies will most likely find new careers with suppliers to those firms.  This may be especially true of supply chain, business process and technologies such as IT and engineering.  For example, operators will look to Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and qualified suppliers to implement their Digitalization business models.

    Those with technical skills such as Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) will be in demand for both recall to older business models but more likely to enable new ones.  Other emerging energy sectors include renewables and their derivatives.

    Entire, global business models are under scrutiny and change is inevitable.  Older sluggish companies will be replaced with new agile entrants.  Just look at how Amazon evolved from an online book seller to their current position.

    How to Disrupt

    What if I want to strike out?  For those who feel alone and not sure which way to turn, there is help available right now!  As far as I know everything listed below is at no cost and RRI knows these resources directly—no third parties.

    • “Esri, the global leader in location intelligence, announced that it would provide free access to its ArcGIS platform and training resources to professionals worldwide who are impacted by work furloughs during the COVID-19 outbreak.
    • Do you have a great idea for an energy-based startup company, but not sure where to start? I am on the leadership team of the Global Energy Mentors and we provide free mentoring services.  Check us out and you do not have to reside in the Houston metro area!
    • Looking for help from the Small Business Administration and again, don’t know who to call? Let us know and will put you in contact with the Houston office.
    • There are other opportunities available where we can help you. For example, the BBL Ventures Energy & Industrial Tech Challenge and Eunike Ventures it’s Alliance Partners are seeking innovative technologies via our 2020 Technology Open Call.  There are others as well and to date, the Innovation and Acceleration sector remains active.
    • Got a quick question? Contact us for 30 minutes of free online/email consulting limited to the first 50 and perhaps more.  We know of numerous additional resources and hopefully can direct you.

    Moreover, almost anyone can develop an App about any subject or issue.  What’s bugging you for which there is NO App or other solution?  Guess what, you now the Subject Matter Expert in that field.  Search App Development for all manor of free or low cost tools and help.

    Changes of the magnitude discussed herein can be daunting but there is no reason for any of us to fail in this transformation.  When faced with few or no options in your current career environment—What do you have to lose?

    Why let this disruption control you?  You control it!

  • Tumultuous Decade: What’s Next for Oil & Gas?

    Tumultuous Decade: What’s Next for Oil & Gas?

    April 20, 2020 marks the tenth anniversary of one of the most horrific incidents in the upstream oil and gas sector—Deepwater Horizon.  In addition to the tragic loss of eleven lives, the sector forever changed.  Immediate restructuring of federal oversight resulted in the establishment of the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) and their subsequent Safety Culture Policy.

    The industry changed too.  One of the first efforts following Macondo was the formation of the Marine Well Containment Company.  Its mission is to rapidly respond to Deepwater incidents in the Gulf of Mexico.  Subsequent organizations are also positioned around the world.

    Moreover, the industry embraced Safety Culture and continues to improve based upon Systemic Safety Cultures across organizational ecosystems.  These processes are incorporated into Operations Management Systems that incorporate SEMS as part of Operational Excellence Initiatives.

    In 2014, the sector faced another slap in the face with the collapse of oil prices, yet again.  Now it is the double whammy of the Covid-19 pandemic coupled with the price war between Russia and Saudi Arabia.

    Darkest Before the Dawn

    Each time the industry is forced to retrench, it follows a predictable pattern.  Reduction in force (layoffs), corporate restructuring and turning to technology are among the most common steps.

    This chart from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis shows the employment levels for the upstream sector since the early 1970s.  One can make the case that the level of employment in the sector is flat at best.  One likely cause is automation and the extensive use of information technology to manage the business.

    Note: This chart is current as of March 2020

    In 1970, the US population was a little more than 205 million.  Now it tops 330 million.  This supports a hypothesis that the per capita employment by the sector is decreasing.  We expect this to continue.

    The Digital Oilfield marches on with the advent of IT-OT Convergence, Digitalization, etc.  This process has been underway since at least the late 1970s with the advent of the first computerized data acquisition systems.  Likely, much longer if one considers for example, the invention of electric well logging by the Schlumberger brothers in 1926.

    Certainly, other technological advances have contributed as well.  The often maligned fracturing the rock traces its roots back the beginning of the industry (circa 1862).  Contemporary hydraulic fracturing was started by Halliburton in 1949 and shale ‘fracing’ by Mitchell Energy & Development Corporation during the 1990s.

    While we have not done the detailed research, historically oil companies have outsourced to engineering firms, IT companies and others that provide a service as opposed to full time employees.  Today’s disrupted employees may find better careers in the emerging sectors that support petroleum operations as well as other sectors.

    Schumpeter’s Creative Destruction is a work in ‘the patch’ today.  A lot has happened in the Deepwater Horizon incident.  Here’s to calmer waters this next ten years!

  • Is Big Data Analysis Being Applied?

    Is Big Data Analysis Being Applied?

    We have been hearing for years how, Big Data Analysis will help us optimize our businesses and generate performance at levels here to for never hear of.  So where is it now?

    Two major sources for data on the Covid-19 virus are Johns Hopkins University and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  This is fine at one level.  Living in the Houston, Texas metropolitan area, this pundit can see a general (real time) overview of the situation from either.

    However, my home is on the west side of the city.  I was recently surprised to learn that most of the local exposure is on the east side; 30+ miles from my domicile.  Is my risk lower than I am being told by the authorities?  Or is it the same or higher?

    Why am I staying at home?  Perhaps the result of a blunt policy instrument?

    It appears to me that most medical professionals are not Data Scientists.  Absolutely knowledgeable in their field, including pathogens (I personally know many in the field including a pathologist).  Is that system taking help from data scientists?  I have not heard that it is.

    Additionally, if the argument is we don’t yet have enough data, this holder of a doctoral degree will argue that Small Data set modeling can be effective as well.  My doctoral dissertation was founded on these statistics.

    I have no doubt that the best minds are working this problem.  However, if policy makers take a hammer to the nail, when perhaps a series of tacks is appropriate, significant economic damage will continue.

    The tack approach appears to be what we are hearing about certain parts of the United States coming back online in a week or so.  The concept of months some advocate makes no sense to this writer.  We will see social unrest long before that.

    The Big Data Analysis sector has been pressing their value proposition and software/solutions for years as a way of optimizing businesses.  Why is the sector quiet regarding coronavirus?

    If we can parse data and sell web advertisements based on ‘clicks’ why can’t we figure this out a level of granularity that allows the economy to restart (at least in some geographies)?  Get to work guys and prove my concerns wrong!

    Finally, what is the role for Artificial Intelligence (AI)?  Its advocates suggest it has magical powers and it  has been used to solve other problems.  Prove it on this global stage!

    Where are Big Data and AI in this fight?

  • Restoring the Global Economy: Starting Today!

    Restoring the Global Economy: Starting Today!

    Prognosticators of the future, including this one are speculating on the Post-Covid-19 world.  As with every disruptive crisis, things change going forward.  This one will be no different and will probably accelerate certain trends, end some and generate many new opportunities.  Some industry sectors and many organizations will need to transmute the way they do business.

    One thing that will not change is our dependencies on one another both for business and the global society in general.  We may modify our supply chain procedures, work more remotely, change training and education processes and so forth and so one.

    The use of certain information technologies and the need to protect them from maleficent (computer) viruses will most likely explode.  The oil and gas sector will restructure itself as it has many times over its history.  Winners and losers will emerge.

    There is a major underpinning for all of this—Cross Cultural Interactions.  In this new world order successful organizations (including governments) that develop and sustain a Strong Bond Governance model can thrive.  Others that do not will most likely struggle.  We first made this case when the oil and gas Deepwater sector was struggling post Deepwater Horizon and again during the last oil price crash.

    Building a Strong Remote Working Culture and Brand

    Probably the trend towards more Remote Working will accelerate after the Covid-19 crisis passes.  To the extent an organization prepares its ecosystem for this transformation it may secure competitive value.

    Many industrial organizations are not early adopters of technology.  Their preference is to let others lead and implement later in the technology life cycle.  While this approach worked for many in the past, it may not be the best strategy going forward.

    In 2004, we posited that Early Adopters actually captured the most value from new technology.  Integral “Calculus tells us that the area under the curve is approximately the sum of the areas of inscribed rectangles.”

    Adjusted for risk, this hypothesis is supported by mathematics.  Check it out, it might work for your organization.

    As stated in our last blog, there are underly concerns when vast numbers are working remotely for long periods of time.  One suspects there will be some media reporting on not just the technical difficulties but the human issues working remotely.

    At one level, there appears to be a clash between the value of early adoption and human challenges of remote work.  Management must be aware of this challenge and put processes in place to address real human concerns.

    Enhanced Cross Cultural & Diversity Training

    Organizations continue to be diverse including a number of cross-cultural characteristics based on geography, division, etc.  Managing diversity and cultural challenges are more acute when working remotely.

    To build this strong culture and be known as a ‘thought leadership’ organization requires training.  As we know, training can be online and not just workshop or classes.

    We humans can interact with each other in a meaningful way playing a serious game.  Our Cloud based Cross Cultural Serious Game enables diverse individuals and teams to engage in real world scenarios from remote locations.  We have found this type of training to be invaluable for diverse and remote team interaction.

    The expected increase in organizational restructuring will lead the merger and acquisition activity in the near future.  This cross-cultural training tool can add value therein as well.

    How will YOU position yourself for the next step?

  • Home Base During a Crisis: ‘get up, clean up, and dress up’

    Home Base During a Crisis: ‘get up, clean up, and dress up’

    In the middle of a global pandemic, all of us who can are advised to work from home.  Many of us have worked remotely for a while now.  Whether traveling, dealing with sick children, avoiding traffic or dealing with a natural disaster remote management has become part of our business DNA.

    Yet, this pundit was a bit surprised at some of the social chatter about working from home for extended periods.  After all, I have been working remotely for decades.  Turns out, these fears have a basis in fact.

    It appears there are two culprits at work here.  First is our individual behaviors and secondly, there are serious productivity concerns.

    First Culprit

    A day or two, here and their remote working is fine.  Things can change however; when it becomes a way of life and not everyone is well suited to labor this way.

    While it all sounds good on paper, working as an individual remotely is a difficult thing to do.  Humans are social beings.  Most of us need to interact with others; daily.

    The concept of working in my ‘underwear’ is not sustainable.  Like all aspects of life, a structured process is required.  First of all, ‘get up, clean up, and dress up.’  This is not the weekend where you check the odd email or holiday where you do the same on a beach with an umbrella drink.

    It is your job, the source of your income and often self-worth.  The risks to both of these is high when working remotely.

    While not directly on this topic.  This is one of the best videos on motivation and focus.  Well worth your time to view it.

    Working at home requires discipline as well as your ‘in office’ work ethic.  Challenge will be to sustain this effort.

    Second Culprit

    Some sectors such as Information Technology have encouraged its employees and contractors to work from home on a permanent basis.  This was long ago considered dogma.  Except that sometimes it does not work.

    In 2017, I noticed that IBM was ending its ‘work from home’ policy for many workers.  In their statement at the time, “In many fields, such as software development and digital marketing, the nature of work is changing, which requires new ways of working.  “We are bringing small, self-directed agile teams in these fields together.”  Has anything changed in less than three years?

    Further confirmation of this model can be found with most of the technology innovators and accelerators today.  Often accused of selling real estate these mostly for-profit enterprises claim that working together in a centralized environment encourages collaboration and cross pollination of ideas.

    This is the current common business model for start up organizations around the world.  In the minds of many, it must work and add value to the creative process.

    Another New Normal

    Is this a paradigm shift or just a short term inconvenience?  Reality, probably a bit of both.  E-learning has been growing and this may give that sector a boost.  Software development, the presumed online job, maybe not so much.

    While it is likely that Structural Dynamics are at work the current covid-19 situation.  Our Relationships, Behaviors, Conditions (RBC) model is a useful tool going forward.

    We are changing your blog model for the near future and will be developing this issue in more detail and offering actionable solutions.   In subsequent posts we will develop this further.

    In the meantime, if your challenged by the requirement to work remotely contact us for no cost, no obligation mentoring.

  • To KISS or Not?

    To KISS or Not?

    According to legend, the term KISS or ‘Keep It Simple, Stupid’ was coined by Kelly Johnson, lead engineer at the Lockheed Skunk Works and noted by the US Navy as early as 1960.  Subsequent phrases such as ‘Less is More’ followed.

    At first glance, it makes sense not to overly complicate a product, process or project.  Certainly, a non-technical audience such as senior management will need to the issue and risk management strategy explained in terms they understand.  However, in our search for Red. Yellow, Green ratings are we overly simplifying complex environments?

    Albert Einstein is created with saying, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.”  This begs the questions, where is that line and how do you know if you’ve crossed it?

    One of the mantras of the High Reliability Organization Mindfulness is, Preoccupation with Failure.  This is not defined as with Normal Accident Theory, where failures are inevitable.  Rather, it is an understanding the modern complex systems one must be resolute in one’s focus on operational issues and rapidly move to normalize out of limit situations.

    In 2016 (and earlier) we made the case that after the Ebola outbreak in Dallas, the Public Health sector was resilient and that issue was contained quickly (links to all three parts of this series provided below).  In this writer’s opinion, this was not possible if the process was ‘worked’ at a too simple level.  Lessons learned from that and other contagion incidents may be useful combating Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).

    The overused phrase, “failure is not an option” is the root of contemporary Operational Excellence business models.  In fact, failure happens but mitigating its impact and rapidly recovering are the hallmark of successful organizations.

    The graphic is a fractal.  From the Fractal Foundation, “A fractal is a never-ending pattern.  Fractals are infinitely complex patterns that are self-similar across different scales.  They are created by repeating a simple process over and over in an ongoing feedback loop.  Driven by recursion, fractals are images of dynamic systems – the pictures of Chaos.  Geometrically, they exist in between our familiar dimensions.  Fractal patterns are extremely familiar, since nature is full of fractals.  For instance: trees, rivers, coastlines, mountains, clouds, seashells, hurricanes, etc.”

    Our world is a complex place.  Processes and technologies must deal with that fact.  Successful risk management strategies must take Einstein’s wisdom into consideration.
