This site contains most, but not all, of the book Disruptive Ideas - 10+10+10=1000: the maths of Viral Change that transform organisations.

I’ve done this so I could invite all managers and/or leaders in any organisation to provide some feedback on these ideas, new input and basically to co-write the second edition of the book. I would really like to learn from your experiences.

The possibilities to contribute are endless. For example:

• You can improve the list of examples within a disruptive idea.
• You can give examples of how something actually worked for you or how it didn’t.
• You can give recommendations for the implementation of ideas.
• You can make suggestions on how you can spread the disruptive idea(s) virally.
• You can highlight a combination that has worked for you or that you think would be particularly powerful.
• You can make comments on the main text.
• You can describe the kind of organisation that would be/was created by applying a particular disruptive idea or several ideas.
• You can explain how you have sponsored or plan to sponsor (a) particular idea(s).

Simply click on the chapter(s) that you wish to comment on or add information to and you’ll be able to enter your contribution at the bottom of the page.

I can’t promise that all the comments will be published in the next edition of the book, but if they are, they’ll only be used with your permission and you’ll be given proper credit.

The book will be reviewed once or twice a year, so you won’t have to wait years before you’ll see your contribution in print! This website will be updated once the date for the next edition has been determined and what the cut-off will be for that edition.

One thing’s for sure: every new edition will be better than the previous one!

What are disruptive (management) ideas?

Disruptive ideas provide management alternatives that, if spread, can completely transform the way the organisation works without the need for a massive ‘change management programme’. Each of them in its own right has the potential to create significant change, but the compound benefit of a few of them is a real engine of change and business transformation.

Disruptive Ideas:

1. are simple
2. have a total disproportion between their simplicity and the significant impact in the life of organizations
3. can be implemented now
4. have zero cost or are cheap to implement
5. are most likely to be contrarian
6. are most likely to be counterintuitive
7. have a high risk of being trivialised or dismissed
8. can spread virally very easily, as soon as some people implement them
