An eDream is a dream, big idea or a breakthrough innovation. Successful enablement of an eDream requires risk, a dedicated multi-year effort, engaging and relating to many people, communities and knowledge. To make an eDream happen, it requires effectively: iterating the eDream Components, addressing the Enablement Components and managing the Enablement Execution.
It may not seem like there is much in common with a dream to graduate from college, a big idea for a cancer cure and a breakthrough innovation like Apple's iPhone. Yet they each have similar eDream Components,Enablement Components and require an Enablement Execution to make them happen.
Castellina in Tuscany, Italy and New York are two entirely different destinations with little in common. Yet evaluating whether it is a good idea (eDream Insight to go there and what it would take to get there (Enablement Insight), may be similar. Travel to these destinations may require a different mix of planes, trains and automobiles, yet have a similar process Enablement Process to effectively manage the trip from point A to point B.
Great ideas or aha moments are very important. Yet while these ideas get all the fanfare, they represent as little as 1% of the process to make them happen.(reference) This site provides a framework to evaluate whether an eDream is a good idea (eDream Insight), how to make it happen (Enablement Insight) and how to effectively manage (Enablement Execution) making it happen.
It that requires insight and enablement to make it happen. An eDream typically requires each of the enablement components and an enablement execution to make it happen:
- People - beneficiaries, aspirers, stakeholders, supporters, providers and social circles
- Communities - industries, organizations, locations, social sircles, competency, interests, demographic or perspectives
- Knowledge - functional, domain, industry, skills/expertise, funding, and resources
- Development Tracks - development components (i.e., save money, incorporate business) required to make an eDream happen
- Funding - personal funds, investments, loans, in kind
- Resources - time, help and other sacrifices for an unknown outcome
- Timeline - a multiyear timeline or a very concerted timeline over 6 to 12 months
- Enduring Grit – thousands of small choices to make one big thing happen
Dream
A dream is a personal goal, vision or desired outcome that improves personal prosperity and/or prosperity of others. Achieving it requires risk, a dedicated multi-year effort, engaging and relating to various people, communities and knowledge.
Big Idea
A big idea is an idea that could produce new benefits and/or knowledge that improves prosperity of multiple people. Achieving it requires risk, dedicated multiyear complex plan, engaging and relating to various people, communities and knowledge.
Breakthrough Innovation
A breakthrough innovation is new knowledge or innovation that produces new prosperity for multiple people. It requires learning, understanding and introducing something new in one or all of the following:
- Problem/UnMet Need - new way to addresses a problem or unmet need not being addressed or it addresses it in a new way.
- Beneficiaries (or customer) - addresses beneficiaries not being addressed or addressed in a new way
- Communications (or Marketing) - requires a new way to be communicated or to an entirely new group
- Solution (or Product/Service) - a new solution that is designed, developed and built a new way
- Operational (or Business Model) - a new operational way to sustain a solution
When the iPhone, Kindle and Netflix streaming videos were each introduced in 2007, it was a result of new learning and understanding of the five components above by Apple, Amazon and Netflix. When they launched their revised versions of these products, these were sustaining innovations as they improved on each of the 5 components rather than introducing something entirely new.
