Innovation. It's a word that features in almost every speech, article and business strategy – simply because leaders know it's what keeps their customers engaged long term. It's also one of the most important drivers for sustained growth.Yet, for all its importance, innovation is curiously difficult to define. So, how can we identify the exceptional ideas from the everyday? And – more to the point – what does innovation actually look like in the world of engineering and manufacturing? Can an innovative company culture be built with the right team, or is it instead a natural outcome of the R&D process?  This is the central topic we examine in the third and final episode of this series of Beyond the Blueprint. This time we're joined by Graham Reed, Manuela Kraus and Mark Koski, three colleagues who have spearheaded innovation across different divisions of Ingersoll Rand. We get the inside track on their experiences, as well as some reflections on standout projects that capture the true meaning of innovation. It's a fitting end to series two. Be sure to tune in. Topics covered in this episode include:What exactly is innovation? And how does the ‘right' idea happen?What comes first: changing customer requirements or entirely new concepts that need shaping according to customers' needs?Challenges associated with the development of new products and servicesHow to avoid overengineering a solution Website: www.irco.comLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/ingersoll-rand

Its origins can be traced back to the development of the first programmable logic controller almost 60 years ago – but it's only now that industrial engineering and manufacturing is beginning to fully reckon with the Industrial Internet of Things' (IIoT) potential. As our guests highlight in the latest episode of Beyond the Blueprint, IIoT is now entering an exciting new phase with the help of next-gen technologies, such as machine learning and AI. The road to this point, however, has been filled with many other important milestones, which have ultimately given customers a much greater degree of visibility and control of their assets. It's these milestones that serve as the starting point for our conversation with Corene Newbery and Aviran Yaacov. Both guests share insights into how Aircom and EcoPlant – two Ingersoll Rand businesses – are tackling complex challenges and delivering efficiency to customers worldwide with industry-changing technologies. You'll hear about the big problems these businesses are solving, as well as the customer-centric thinking that led to the creation of these powerful solutions.Be sure to listen to the end of this episode, where we take a glimpse into the future and question what's next for IIoT. Topics covered in this episode include:Putting IIoT in context – why is this technology so powerful and where is it making an impact? The technology's development to date – and its position within industrial engineering and manufacturingAppetite for data and how this can be used to improve performance – even over large geographical areasWebsite: www.irco.comLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/ingersoll-rand

It could be something really small that does not seem like a lot for you.  But it is really impactful to the other person.  Courage can be big or small.”Dina's mantra, “Grit. Grace. Gratitude.”“Courage is a heart word. The root of the word courage is cor - the Latin word for heart. In one of its earliest forms, the word courage meant "To speak one's mind by telling all one's heart.” – Brene BrownCourage:  “Stepping into unknown purposefully with your head held high.  Tackling that challenge head on.”“Showing up is courageous.  Sometimes we overthink.  It is just showing up and letting what will be, will be.”“Fake it till you become it.”Connection:  “Be mindful to not just gravitate towards the people that are naturally in your circle. Be purposeful.  Find other (connections) that you would not normally have in the day-to-day.”Connection: “Be really thoughtful on how and what connections you are going to keep.” On Purpose Over Time:  “Whatever your (purpose) answer is, that is the answer for right now. It does not mean that is what it has to look like go forward. “ “There is no such thing as perfect work life balance. There is an integration of the two where you are going to have peaks and valleys. It's how you comingle those.”On Grace:  “Self-compassion and kindness; not only for others but for yourself.”“Create space and time for trust and honesty on your team. If you can cultivate that, it is priceless.”

The guest this week on The CMO Podcast is Carrie Ruddy, the Senior Vice President, Chief Communications & Marketing Officer of Trane Technologies–a 17 billion dollar by sales company focused on heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration systems. But this is no ordinary HVAC company–they are 100% focused on helping solve the climate change crisis through innovative new products and services. Trane's CEO attributes their strong business results to “a focused execution of our purpose driven strategy.” We'll talk about that.Carrie first discovered her passion for communications at the non-profit United Way, after completing her Bachelors at Colgate University, majoring in English and Philosophy. From there she made stops in several industries, including financial services and grocery/retail, before joining manufacturer Ingersoll Rand in 2014. In 2020 the tools business of Ingersoll Rand was spun off, and the remaining company was named Trane Technologies. In January 2022 Carrie was named Chief Communications and Marketing Officer of Trane Technologies. Recorded at the Next Gen CMO Academy at Deloitte University, during a Texas heatwave, (it was 105 degrees!) It's only fitting that Carrie joined Jim in the crisp AC for her first ever podcast interview.

Nikhil Kalla is a Global Pricing Manager at Ingersoll Rand who collaborates closely with regional pricing and global cross functional teams to drive projects that build pricing governance, create value propositions, align pricing with the market by applying segmentation, harmonization, rationalization and market research. In this episode, Nikhil shares the significance of customer segmentation in developing a product that caters to different pricing tiers - top, middle, and low. This approach ensures that the product aligns with customers' willingness to pay based on the value they receive.   "If we had known our customer more or the most, you would have been able to segment your market and gain maximum on your profitability." - Nikhil Kalla    Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn how customer segmentation drives different pricing points while still attracting customers from various segments Gain insights into the significance of customer segmentation in shaping product design and establishing pricing strategies that cater to customers' varying levels of willingness to pay Find out how proper communication of your product's value can help you gain the most advantage in pricing   Topics Covered: 01:46 - What's all this obsession of Nikhil over mastering Rubik's cube  02:52 - How he found himself in pricing 04:31 - Defining customer segmentation 07:09 - Customer segmentation by way of price segmentation 08:59 - What goes into approving different price points for different customers and even for the same ones 11:20 - What drives different pricing mix 17:18 - Market segmentation as a way to sell your products more intelligently 19:40 - How this works: Two different products targets two different market segments with two different price points 26:42 - Explaining what real-life scenario versus assumptions when talking about value to price ratio[how packaging works as part of customer segmentation] 30:23 - Nikhil's best pricing advice   Key Takeaways: "Customer segmentation is all about deriving value, the maximum value from your customer base." - Nikhil Kalla  "Other than just being value and pricing, I feel there's more about communication of that value and then convincing part to be able to fetch maximum price so that the ratio of value by price is least as a win for me if I'm the supplier. And it has to be maximum so that the buyer gets to gain the most out of that transaction." - Nikhil Kalla  "When it comes to having the ability to sell to a slightly non elastic market where the demand is going to be expected to stay the same, you would always want to rely on pricing as a lever. Because everything that comes through pricing just goes to your pocket." - Nikhil Kalla    Connect with Nikhil Kalla: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nikhil-kalla   Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

“There's a few reasons why a building owner might want to electrify their building and get heat pumps. One is that it is a better experience for the people who are living in those units. It's really, really quiet. it's healthier, it's safer…and then secondly, there should be less maintenance cost over time. Just having one system that's really efficient.” Lauren Salz on Electric Ladies Podcast Heat pumps are suddenly getting a spotlight. Between big financial incentives for them in the new U.S. Inflation Reduction Act's climate provisions, Germany's ramp up of these pumps to help manage the cold winter as Germany stops using Russian oil and gas, and even Consumer Reports doing a "heat pumps buying guide," you might wonder what heat pumps are and how they can help mitigate climate change. Enter Lauren Salz, Co-Founder and CEO of Sealed, an innovative heat pump company that helps homeowners reduce their energy bills. Listen to Lauren explain how these work and more in this engaging conversation with host Joan Michelson on Electric Ladies Podcast. You'll hear: How heat pumps work, including how they reduce energy bills. What financial incentives are out there to reduce the cost of installing heat pumps in your home or apartment building or commercial building. How Sealed works to help homeowners and property managers find the right heat and air conditioning systems for their budget and buildings (HVACs), including questions to ask. Plus, insightful career advice …. “Career women who are looking to progress in their career (should) really be raising your hand for opportunities and letting people know at work that here's where you want to be heading and you're looking for help and advice on how to get there.…Because…sometimes people can kind of get stuck a little bit in middle management, and the way to progress is to let people know that you are ambitious and you want to keep on progressing in your career and you want to know specifically how you can go and do that.” Lauren Salz on Electric Ladies podcast   You'll also want to listen to: (some might be recorded under our previous name, Green Connections Radio) Jennifer Gerbi, Ph.D., Deputy Director and Acting Director, ARPA-E of the U.S. Dept. of Energy (Advanced Projects Research Agency, for Energy), on innovating energy solutions Halla Hrund Logadottir, Head of Iceland's National Energy Authority, on how that country achieved 85% renewable energy.

Welcome to Innovation Meets Leadership! I'm your host, Natalie Born. In this episode, we have Carol Seymour who will be differentiating sponsorship and mentorship. Throughout the times in the workforce, we have been experiencing biases and some forms may not even be obvious. As we dig into these, there came the need to heavily consider sponsorship as the way to elevate our profiles as women leaders. Carol Seymour is a sought-after business leader and catalyst for growth. As an executive advisor to businesses and executives around the globe, she has a passion for helping leaders perform at maximum potential in their professions and lives. Carol founded Signature Leaders in 2013 at the request of a dozen global heads of HR, and now runs multiple leadership-focused offerings FOR women, not about women, including Signature Premier, Signature Select, Strive, and Surge. Today, more than 1,600 global executives in the Fortune 1000 are part of Signature Leaders, which also partners with more than 130 market-leading companies for their selective investments, including Eastman, ADP, Ahold Delhaize, Ingersoll Rand, ServiceNow, Cardinal Health, Merck, UPS, Nestle, Southern Company, AT&T, and Cigna. She is also a top-rated speaker, named one of the Top 40 Women Keynote Speakers for 2020 by RealLeaders Magazine, spending most of her speaking time with women's forums, industry conferences, and client leadership forums. Main Takeaways: ● The Sobering Reality of Economic Parity for Women ● Bridging the Gap: The Critical Role of Advocates ● Inviting Opportunities for Sponsorship through Exposure Key Quotes: “Your direct supervisor is typically not going to be a sponsor, right? That's their job to kind of help develop you, what you want to do is get some visibility by people who actually don't know that much about you… Being part of those allows visibility into some of the other things that you're capable of.” - Carol Seymour Be sure to check out full show notes at https://innovationmeetsleadership.com/resources or click "Episode Website" below.

That's an example of a daily or a weekly feedback loop that comes around. I think the best cultures have that sort of process ingrained in them.”* [5] Question: Importance of leadership.* “You make either a good allocation to capital or poor ones. And obviously that drives a ton of shareholder value differentiation, but there's also need for sustained commitment to a system. You can see lots of management teams that have sort of laid out goals, but if you don't get everybody motivated and incentivized the right way, then they can fade away.”* [6] Question: what are you paying attention to to see whether culture is changing or whether the arrogance is creeping in?* “The value gets created everyday throughout. And so, you know, if you have a culture that's spending too much time on big ideas and not enough time on generating the cash that, that allows you the flexibility to do things, if you have a culture that's veered into being a little bit PowerPoint-focused, if it's projecting yourself internally focused as opposed to executing on the daily task that can be a real red flag.”* [9] Question: Have you seen aspects of great culture that are universal or is it very specific to the company? How much room is there for bringing in ideas from the outside?* “Having clear goals, having reinforcement loops and having the ability to course correct is universal. One of the points we try to make in the book, a lot of these companies have been innovative and a lot of companies have created categories. How do you analyze caterpillar? Well, I don't look at them as the best bulldozer, and they do, but, but they might not have the best in everything. The competitive advantage doesn't always last on innovation, but it does last on getting everything, fixed, getting everything right.”* [11] Question: “Undisciplined operations don't work” - elaborate on this.* “What do you look for when you go in a factory? Well, it's not actually all that hard. You walk into the factory, you see if the sight lines are clear, if there's a bunch of inventory stacked up and piled up there, that's something wrong.That's waste. That's confusion. That's a disruption. You look to see that there an employee sort of idea board, and that there's lots of ideas flowing through because workers are the ones who see problems and they surface them. Right? So that's a mechanism for surfacing problems.”* “I went to a mining facility once, and they're these little disks that were used for smoothing or buffing the metal. And they just did a simple thing, a shadow board. It's called you paint on a, you know, on a cardboard wall. Like here's a picture of the disc. So when you're done with it, you stack it here. They found like 70 of these things, you know, they found like a million dollars of equipment. There's a picture of the broom there to hang the broom up. Right. So very, very simple things.”* “The essence of lean is stop and fix, get things, right. Surface problems. And that's a factory floor issue. But as we kind of talked about earlier, that applies to the whole company as well. If you see a problem, you can fix it. If you don't see it, then it grows.”* [15] Question: How do you weight insights from site visit in your assessment of a company?* “It's critical. And honestly, I missed it. I was a pretty new analyst on Caterpillar. When I saw some of these issues, I think I saw three or four factories in the first year, the first 18 months. And one of these visits I walked down and there's there's bins, just bins of things, labeled rework. I was like, what's rework. Well, it didn't come out right the first time. So we're going to do it again, you know? And, you know what I did, I kept writing about the end markets cause that's what I understood at that time. I kept writing about, oh, I think mining's going to be good or bad. I thought oh, well, this doesn't feel great, but I haven't seen that many factories and probably they'll fix it. And in fact that was a, you know, it was a terrible sign. Caterpillar was struggling with production not with the equipment quality, the equipment still great, but they weren't able to crank up production. * “That was actually a huge problem, a huge cultural problem, business system problem. And managers and leaders fixed it. But as I mentioned earlier, sometimes Lean takes a while. So if you've got a workforce who isn't used to it, it might take me five years to get the new system in.”* [17] Question: If it's so useful why wouldn't everyone do Lean?* “One answer to your question is continuous improvement is a compounding process, right? And Danaher is maybe the ultimate example of that, but you fix something that gets better and then you fix something else and it gets better and you keep going.”* “It takes a very serious commitment from senior management and it takes years, you know, maybe it takes five years to get everything kind of, you know, where everybody knows that their first job is to stop and fix. The first job is to reduce, you know, inefficiency. It can be tempting to say, well, let's just buy a few hundred extra hoses and just have them there, you know?”* [19] Question: Implementing Lean - like Danaher's visual management.* “It's not rocket science, right. But it is hard to do.”* “Very easy stuff, but in our day-to-day it can be hard to stop and focus on process.”* [20] Question: Is there a disconnect between analysts and management?* “You know, my job is a tricky one. You have to be arrogant enough to have an opinion, and humble enough to to know you're probably wrong most of the time, you know, close to half the time.”* [22] Question: Forecasting volatile markets.* “A lot of people in this job like thinking about things. So you get a lot of data points. You'd like to think about it. And some of the cultural stuff is harder to think about.”* “Melius uses two year forward price targets. Partly as a mental trick to try and get yourself to focus. Partly because these things show up more over time, right.”* “If you're trying to forecast a quarter, okay. You can say, well, what was, you know, what was demand of iPhone shipped this quarter or something.But if you're trying to focus on how Apple created value over the last 10 years, I mean, it's innovation and supply chain, you know? So those two things, you know then they switch and relative performance as your timeframe goes out longer.”* [24] Question: What have you observed in terms of what people do well or poorly with, with incentivizing the organization?* “If you have all your incentives structured around raising margin, that might be a phenomenal thing if you're underperforming, if your margins are low. Let's work on pricing, let's work on factory efficiency and et cetera. Eventually that playbook may come to an end. And if you're a person who's grown up in that system and you step into a leadership role it's hard to say to wall street to say all the analysts, you know what, they, we're just going to stop all that, you know, and we're gonna do something else entirely, right? Because investors invest on a certain expectation of future earnings and anything that changes.”* John Deere: “Under the current CEO, John May, they basically shifted their strategy. I think with the endorsement of the prior CEO as well, but they had tried to be a global manufacturer who was leading in all sizes of tractors and they started to look around and they said, well, the technology is changing so fast that we can actually create more value by focusing on large, we're going to try and serve all our customers. We're going to focus on investing in large farms where we can do autonomous tractors, or we can do, you know, actually they're, they're doing AI pattern recognition.”* “One company I follow United Rentals where incentives were a huge portion of the transformation. So they had different branch managers. Let's say, let's say you're a local McDonald's and you're incentivized on beating out the McDonald's down the road. That's kind of crazy. Right. And so, you know, one of the things that, one of the very simple, the powerful changes made it United rentals under a new CEO was let's shift the compensation to focus on regional or district results rather than on your own.”* “And that's a capital intensive industry. So let's charge people for the capital. You know, if you want to buy 10 more pieces of equipment to rent, [00:27:00] you know, that that's part of your compensation. You have to make a return on that. Bizarrely it had not necessarily been that way before.”* [29] Question: What metrics to track?* “Danaher and Roper they do the same thing, a very simple sort of cash return on cash invested. It's simplicity again, right. You know, if you have hundreds of metrics, it's hard to track them. It's hard to know where you're supposed to be doing.”* [30] Question: Assessing new CEOs.* “This is one of the great things about being in this industry is you get a chance to meet a lot of different management teams and you'll probably be wrong about many, but you at least have a basis on which to sort of judge.”* [32] Question: Trade-off of having access to CEOs: gaining insight vs. being subjected to selling.* [34] Question: Assessing big decisions like M&A.* “The ones that have gone wrong. And I write about a couple of them, you know, and again, a self-critical way, I thought the mining market would do X and it did Y so if you're basing an acquisition off of that, that can be very challenging.Versus if you're saying, hey, you know, I took the margins from 7% to 21% because of these processes and this company doesn't have this culture of process. And we can approve them. Then you're making more of a bet on your internal capabilities. So at least in our world that a lot of value has been created by the quote unquote compounders, like Roper like Danaher or like TransDigm. And they're able to use that to make relatively small bets that play to their strengths and they all have different strengths, let's say, but they all have a systematic way of approaching that strength or consistent way of approaching that strength.”* “If you look at Dave Cote, again at Honeywell, I believe you mentioned in his book that, you know, one of his jobs is try and create enough space for him to just sit and read and think … just finding time because being a CEO is a massively difficult job.”* [37] Question: Tell me everything you know about compounders, basically.* “They get their margins flowing, their cashflow going. They have often a fairly diverse set of businesses and they find it relatively easy to find new opportunities where they buy them and they, they run the same playbook again. So you buy a company, the margins are 10% and you bring them up to 20. All of a sudden that's generating cash. And as you do that more and more, your base gets bigger and you can compound it and ever accelerating rate. It's exponential growth. You know, an exponential growth is maybe slow at first and then very, very powerful over time.”* “I cover a few in Ametek and IDEXX, which do niche, industrial applications, Ingersoll, Rand. I think there's going to be a wonderful compounder over time that has a great system. So it's huge value creation and it's steady and it's repeatable.”* “And that's part of the idea of the book. We know what happens after innovation matures, you know, fades, it's culture, execution, and some of these things we've been talking about. So the answer is there's amazingly fruitful avenues for capital deployment. Cause not everybody has gotten these lessons and the lessons sounds simple, but they're not easy to execute always consistently.”* [40] Question: Evaluating compounders early on.* “There are companies that put up what he called a movie set. You know, it looks like lean. It looks like, you know a functioning system.And obviously they're trying, it's not meant to be, but it's not there.”* “You watch those metrics very closely. You see the steadiness, another answer to your question is what's the input, you know, so, you know, what are the daily management processes that you're doing? What are the daily cultural attributes of your company that are, that are there, right?”* [43] Question: Examples where it doesn't work?* “Illinois tool works had a decentralized system. … And in roughly 2006, seven, they had, I think 550 business units. And the idea was, you know, every business units can do a deal every year or every four years or whatever, and we'll compound it in a way, right. … I actually did a note that I didn't publish. That was one of my best notes ever, and I didn't publish it because I went back. I was like, all right, let's show how … each of those little divisions can do a deal every year and how that can drive compounding growth. I did the analysis and it looked like, well, gosh, actually it looks like they do a couple of big deals here and there.”* [46] Question: Value of CFOs.* “Sometimes we think a high-quality CFO can be, you know, under-priced in some ways. … we found that the CFO role can be going to be dramatically important.”* [49] Question: Managing relationships with companies.* “If you're an analyst and your job is to not just say, okay, that looks good, you know, but to actually create some value. There can be a desire to say something interesting, intriguing, provoking, different, right. To push them. And when that's done best, it's, you know, you're right. But I've spoken of arrogance before. I mean if you're covering Caterpillar and you have toured seven factories, but that's not that many, do you really say their production system is totally hosed? You know, is that right? Would that have been the right call for me?”* [52] Question: Smooth vs. volatile earnings.* “The CFO of Danaher's gave us this, the lesson, like, how do you think about volatile business as well? Let's say you buy something and revenues fall 20% and you apply all these fixes and you're, you know, you're applying maybe fixes for a down cycle. It'd be different for a steady business. And eventually you, you know, you get it back up and revenues, bounce back cause they're cyclical. And then now they're at 110% of where they were the effort and the lost time and compounding that you've lost during those two years of down cycle. Versus if it had just grown five percentage and you improve everything and then you've created cashflow and you can compound it. You've lost time and you've lost energy. … I think Warren Buffett has said, I'd rather have a, I don't want to misquote, a volatile 25% return than a steady 10. I think Danaher might say, well, we can do a lot with a steady 10. You know, we can sort of crank that through and compound it, whereas a volatile 20 or a volatile 15 or whatever the break point would be less valuable.”* [52] Question: Evaluating long-term investments and R&D.Enjoyed this piece?

By the third one, I really could say I did a good amount of work and I feel proud of my work and I feel proud of the patent.”“To share knowledge is part of who I am. To share my experiences… I would not be where I am today without other people who have poured into me.”“I had the mindset of ‘do the work' and people will notice. It's not true. The organization is huge and people might not notice. Other than your job, you also have to do the work to let people know who you are, what your interests are, and how you want to develop.  It matters just as much as you doing your work”.“I still have that voice in my head of ‘How do you want to show up?'”“There's power in you actively writing or stating what you wanted to do. It helped me believe in myself that if I wanted to do something I could actually do it.”“You feel that imposter syndrome right away when you're the only person in the room that looks like you.  It can really affect someone's confidence.”“I really cannot overstate how much mentoring matters.”“Even going outside the workplace, into the schools, we have to meet people where they are.”“There's nothing like someone whose walked in those shoes to show you how to do it.”
