Try mind-mapping two scenarios: How does the current system actually work? -vs- If there were no access to the 'current system', what would be the most efficient way to deal with the process? If there's a difference between the two, you have an opportunity for change...

In my experience within a highly regulated industry, I've learned that before making assumptions, it's crucial to step back and understand the 'why' behind established processes. Are these processes well-intentioned but poorly executed? Or are they rigid due to the high-risk nature of the environment, aimed at minimizing potential harm? This deep understanding is essential for effectively evaluating and potentially innovating within such frameworks.

To break from old industry norms, one needs to go out of the workplace & show/tell the things in that arena. For example, to make other realize of good user experience, show them, what companies from other industries are doing in terms of overall customer experience. Earlier getting a new phone with connection used to take at-least 2-3 days. I bought a new phone (& new phone connection) for one of my family members. They completed the KYC etc. through Aadhar. By the time, I reached parking lot, my new phone started working. I shared this with my team members. Everyone felt quite inspired by that. Even today, my team remembers that & look for examples from outside the industry.

Before crafting your narrative, it's crucial to gather insights into what has been tried in the past, identify pain points, and understand how people perceive the current status. Once you grasp the current state, you can envision a better path forward. Stories play a pivotal role in inspiring change by presenting alternative perspectives and possibilities. They have the power to challenge norms and provoke thought, encouraging stakeholders to embrace new ideas and collaborate towards a more innovative future.

"If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." This quote guides how I connect with various stakeholders—it's about having meaningful conversations, even when they're challenging. By fostering trust and understanding, you can build a collaborative environment where everyone's input is valued. This teamwork and alignement of the purpose, incites action.

Some ways to get started: Go back to your customers - What are their challenges, pain points? - What are their fears? - Where have they celebrated success? - What do small wins look like?

I have found when people are involved early, feel heard, and can positively contribute to the vision, they become more motivated and committed. They then become true ambassadors to the vision. This engagement fosters a sense of ownership and empowerment, inspiring them to take meaningful action.

It's very easy to give up and quit when the validation isn’t coming because what you are speaking about isn’t normal. Consistency matters because, without it, there's no room for new norms that have the ability to drive change. To shake things up with your narrative, you must sustain momentum. Keep pushing forward with your unique insights and perspectives, even when it feels like you're not being heard. Over time, your consistency will start to break through the noise, allowing new ideas to take root and influence the industry.

To maintain momentum, create a movement by identifying passionate ambassadors who advocate for your vision. Empower them with appropriate resources to amplify the message and attract more supporters. Celebrate early successes —it shows progress, and highlights the collective impact of everyone's efforts.
