In today's episode, I'm gonna talk about HEAT. Just take a deep, deep breath...
Are you pretending to be on a digital journey? Are you? Are you sitting in
a comfy Pullman chair somehow, just traveling around? Usually this doesn't
mean speed. I'm not talking about your old product and a new code. It's not about
that. You have to figure out what's really relevant for the digital future.
Come up with really crazy cool digital products. This is how you start to add
value and this will be the moment where your expensive IT infrastructure and
your whole digital program starts to make sense.
Today, I'm gonna cook you a steak, a massive steak, we just bought my favorite butcher
at the heart of Zurich. It's so amazing. I just already put it into my sous vide
bath, bathing one and a half hour there on fifty two point five degrees.
The question is what's the temperature of the your digital program? Hot or not?
It will be amazing sous vide and then we will apply heat because heat means speed for you.
And not only the steak - I'm going to add this organic spinach - super fresh.
But I'm going to add smoked potatoes and, of course, smoked mushrooms. And now
let's take care of the garlic.
Let's crack it.
Do you think you don't have enough governance? Having not enough
governance is not your problem. It's not. It''s not. It's not about having more
complexity. It''s about doing the real stuff. It's about doing relevant stuff.
I've got some really hot Oh hot potatoes here...
and after cooling down for while here it is absolutely appropriate to work with cooler potatoes,
I'm gonna slice just make half of it of it and put it in this cast-iron pan to
be used in my Weber grill later.
But we add one specific factor to it. And this is: fat.
And not only "fat", not "some fat" but a very very special fat.
ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding here it is this is Wagyu beef fat
which is so amazing - look at this - like a stone now.. it comes from the fridge. Take a
serious amount of it and just put it over it and the heat from my Weber grill will
just melt it down. Now we were adding... we were adding the garlic. A part of it - oh a bit
more okay so and of course, as promised, salt. Not too much...
I used to over salt it. Now this is good to go. We're doing the same thing with the
mushrooms. We're gonna add again.. we add Wagyu fat, mushrooms, salt... Do you think
you can leverage digital transformation low and slow? Do you really think that?
Let me tell you something: this won't work. I've never seen this working.
Now I just add this amazing fresh pepper from the south of Switzerland.
If we want to leverage a transformation, we need to speed up.
Welcome to my balcony. Here it's my baby. This is my Weber. I think this is the
most used Weber in the whole of Switzerland.
Coming back to speeding up... how to speed up in your organization?...How to speed up? How
does it work if you've got all this governance? Let's make some fire... By the
way, how much are you willing to put into the fires of transformation? This is the
question: how much? It's getting hot now...so I can keep this here. Come on. Stop.
This chimney is massive. It just works. How much are you willing to throw into
the fires of transformation? This is the question. You have to speed up! What am I
going to do with these little buddies. Oh they look so good. Mmm I'm gonna eat one.
Oh you little buddy, you're swimming now for about I think 40 minutes and you're
starting to look amazing. You will have a core temperature of 52.5 degrees
and so you will be evenly medium-rare. And this is, by the way, pretty pretty hot.
And now it's time to deal with real heat - real hot stuff. Come on my little
helpers. And now I'm gonna place my little grill on top of this heat. You need
more speed! Take a seat on this massively hot barbecue and you can stay now for 30
minutes 40 minutes whatever even one hour is not a problem you're getting
better and better and better. Good bye ladies! We're gonna let this
cook for 40-45 minutes, and even if it takes longer, it's not a problem.
They're getting better and better and better. From time to time I'm gonna get
outside and stir it a little bit but actually you don't have to take care for
it, it's somehow magic. Whenever you hear sizzling there is heat involved.
It's sizzling! It's sizzling! Let's have a look! This is the Wagyu beef fat. It's just
magic. Just wait, they're getting better better and even better. Close it again.
It's been 90 minutes what do you think happens now? We're gonna take care of the meat.
It feels so good look at this.
Don't worry it's not ready yet. Cut it open and take it out
of the bag. And you know what now we've got this amazing piece of meat to 100%
medium-rare and, you can see, it doesn't look good yet...This is almost melted but
it needs one more thing. We need to apply heat. Let's bring this beautiful steak outside. Follow me!
We take it and put it here. Fat in front so I can see what
happens to the fat and now we'll apply HEAT.
Yes. I'm talking about heat now I'm gonna sear this steak. Don't try this at home.
Simply don't!
Come on!
Sizzle!
It''s a little fat burn. It's not a problem.
It's a problem.
The gloves!
A short rest.
We're good to go!
This looks so good.
And it's medium rare fully and perfectly seared. You'll see it inside. Follow me.
An amazing piece of meat. Look at this.
Now we're gonna slice it like this and you need a really
really sharp knife this medium rare, look at the juices here.
We don't add any salt or pepper yet. We're gonna do it now.
And you're amazing.
And we are good to go.
Let me say a few final things. I really
want to encourage you to speed up. To make a radical shift of course radical.
To go all-in. To start racing instead of having a journey, super comfy, it's a race!
Stop being mediocre. Don't just be yet another whatever.
