An eDream is a dream, big idea or breakthrough innovation in the enablement process (evaluation and/or trying to make happen). An eDream typically requires the following to make it happen:
- People - beneficiaries, aspirers, stakeholders, supporters, providers and social circles
- Communities - industries, organizations, locations, social sircles, interests, demographic or perspectives
- Knowledge - functional knowledge, domain knowledge and skills/expertise
- Plan - a multiyear plan or a very concerted plan over 6 to 12 months
- Resources - time, help and other sacrifices for an unknown outcome
- Funding - personal funds, investments, loans, in kind
- Enduring Grit - thousands of little choices to make one big thing happen
It may not seem like a dream to graduate from college, a big idea for a cancer cure and a breakthrough innovation like Apple's iPhone have much in common. Yet they each require an enablement process to make them happen.
Castellina in Tuscany, Italy and New York are two entirely different destinations, yet they each may require a similar traveling process to get there via planes, automobiles and GPS devices. Like travel, enablement is the process of getting from point A to point B.
Great ideas or aha moments are very important. Yet while these ideas get all the fanfare, they may represent as little as 1% of the process to make them happen. This site provides an enablement process framework for the other 99%. It offers insight into the People, Communities, Knowledge, Plan, Resources, Funding and Enduring Grit to make almost anything 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.
