• · Focuses on an important customer and market need that justifies the work of forming the team?

We must trust our teams. To collaborate, teams require trust and trust is built on the Three Trust commandments:

• · Respect for others
• · Absolute integrity
• · Generosity of spirit – forgive people

Then, we continued discipline 5 which is Organizational Alignment. We must deeply understand the Exponential Economy and its impact on our customers and our enterprise. That is mean from lower economy, we do invent something new and it will improve economy in future.

For example, in those days, we used ghetto blaster as our radio and in new world, got a lot of product to give easier in our life such as I-phone, MP3, MP4, internet and so on. We must build a shared vision and strategy for the future. Then, align all elements for the enterprise to deliver the intended future such as connects with market trends and important customer needs in the external business environment. Next, we must mobilize the drivers for success such as:

• · Leaders who commit to the future and who clarify and stand for continuous value creation
• · Stakeholders who are engaged in building the new future, communicating it, and connecting with it
• · Set up performance support for overall coordination, communication, learning, access to resources
• · Design and test prototypes: look for early wins to celebrate and leverage success

After finished the lecture, we continued with mock presentation of some groups about their product. Only two groups were done this mock presentation because we do not enough time. Tomorrow is the real and final day to present for each group products.
