Announcement Winter 2022 - The newly established research collaboration between Grundfos, Qvest, and researchers from Harvard Business School will leverage innovative data approaches to study pioneering practitioners in order to better understand how curiosity creates value in organizations.

When When we discuss the value of artificial intelligence, it is not enough to focus on the money we can make by making it easier for our  customers to buy and use our products. We must take responsibility for the entire value chain - starting with the principles we use to develop artificial intelligence to the impact our customers have on the world when they use our products. And we have to start, not from the beginning, but at the end.

Grundfos is a global water technology company with 20.000 employees serving customers all over the world. They are on a mission to pioneer solutions to the world’s water and climate challenges.

In this 6 min video, Change Mangement Consultant Angela Huser explains why she uses Qvest in her client work. Angela outlines how Qvest aligns with her change management principles and shares how she uses the data from Qvest to achieve her goals. 

Successful change leaders focus on what people care about at work. Flying blind is simply too risky and expensive. Without insight into how and what people think about the change initiatives that affect them, it is impossible for change to be successful. This is how one change leader expresses it:  

When strategy is a purely top-down exercise, it is doomed to fail.

Engaging employees in the strategy work and leveraging their expertise on the other hand, is a recipe for making strategy much more likely to succeed.

This is how one leader expresses it: 

Organizations who use Qvest experience growth in curiosity and agility – by nurturing the employees’ questioning habits, they are changing the culture. And by changing the culture in a data-driven way with Qvest, they enable better performance.

The testimonial below is from a municipality in Denmark where they have deployed Qvest as a tool in their journey towards becoming a more citizen-centered public organization.
