Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional business wisdom tells us that entrepreneurs are society’s main source of innovation. Young founders leave college with a big idea, get to work in a garage, and build something that changes the world. Typical corporate employees, strangled by slow-moving bureaucracy, are blocked from making transformative discoveries. In Driving Innovation from Within, strategist and advisor Kaihan Krippendorff disproves one of today’s biggest business myths to highlight lessons for innovators and leaders. He reveals how many of the modern world’s most impactful creations were invented by passionate employee innovators. If it were left up to go-it-alone entrepreneurs, we would not have mobile phones, personal computers, or e-mail. Distilling more than 150 interviews with internal innovators and leading experts along with insights from the latest research and today’s most successful companies, from Tencent and Amazon to Mastercard and Starbucks, Krippendorff lays out a step-by-step playbook to unlock innovation from the inside. He maps the barriers that frustrate efforts to disrupt from within and provides tools to remove them, detailing how visionary leaders can create islands of freedom inside an organization to activate existing employees’ potential and beat startups at their own game. Driving Innovation from Within is a practical and inspiring guide to leadership from all levels for those who want the fulfillment of changing the world without leaving their job in order to do it.
Download or read book Materials Science and Engineering written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-01-16 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Materials are the foundation and fabric of manufactured products. In fact, many leading commercial products and military systems could not exist without advanced materials and many of the new products critical to the nation's continued prosperity will come only through the development and commercialization of new materials. Thus, the field of materials science and engineering (MS&E) affects quality of life, industrial competitiveness, and the global environment. The United States leads the world in materials research and development, but does not have as impressive a record in the commercialization of new materials. This book explores the relationships among the producers and users of materials and examines the processes of innovationâ€"from the generation of knowledge to the ultimate integration of a material into a useful product. The authors recommend ways to accelerate the rate at which new ideas are integrated into finished products. Real-life case studies provide an accurate depiction of the processes that take materials and process innovations from the laboratory, to the factory floor, and ultimately to the consumer, drawing on experiences with three distinctive MS&E applicationsâ€"advanced aircraft turbines, automobiles, and computer chips and information-storage devices.

Download or read book Swords into Plowshares written by David Hoicka and published by Singapore Mediation Solutions. This book was released on with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world that often feels torn by conflict and strife, the ancient words of the prophet Isaiah offer a vision of profound hope. "They will beat their swords into plowshares," he wrote, "and their spears into pruning hooks." It's a powerful image - a future where the tools of war are transformed into the instruments of peace and prosperity. For the defense industry, this vision is more than just a lofty ideal. It's a roadmap for a brighter tomorrow. As the world changes and the priorities of nations shift, the companies that have long been at the forefront of military innovation are faced with a choice. They can cling to the ways of the past, or they can adapt, evolve, and apply their immense strengths to solving the challenges of a new era. This book is the story of those who have chosen the latter path. In the pages that follow, you'll meet the visionary leaders and organizations who are at the vanguard of a powerful transformation. From pioneering environmental remediation to revolutionizing civilian manufacturing, they're turning swords into plowshares in the most literal sense. But this isn't just a story of corporate strategy or market trends. It's a profoundly human tale of courage, resilience, and the unshakable belief that a better world is possible. Behind every innovation and every bold new venture are countless individuals - engineers and entrepreneurs, dreamers and doers - who have staked their livelihoods and their futures on the conviction that their skills and expertise can make a real difference. Their journeys have not been easy. The path from conflict to creation is strewn with obstacles and uncertainties. But through their struggles and their triumphs, these pioneers are charting a course that others can follow. They're proving that the choice between swords and plowshares is a false one - that with enough creativity and commitment, we can forge a future where both people and profits can flourish. This is a message that matters to us all. Whether you're a defense industry executive or a concerned global citizen, the transformation chronicled in these pages holds profound implications. It speaks to the power of innovation to drive positive change, the importance of corporate responsibility in an interconnected world, and the potential for even the most entrenched institutions to evolve and adapt. But more than that, it speaks to the resilience of the human spirit. In a time of global challenges and existential threats, it's easy to give in to despair. But the stories you're about to read are a powerful reminder that another way is possible. That by turning our swords into plowshares - by channeling our resources and our resolve into the work of building rather than destroying - we can create a world of prosperity, sustainability, and peace. So let's draw inspiration from the visionaries in these pages. Let's see in their example not just a path for the defense industry, but a model for us all. And let's move forward with the conviction that, together, we can make Isaiah's ancient prophecy a modern reality. The journey from swords to plowshares is one we must all take - and it starts here, with the turn of a page. This book is priced at an affordable price point to enable widest availability. If this collection of inspiring stories how to make Swords into Plowshares, saves even one life or brings happiness to a single person, it will fill me also with hope and happiness, knowing I've made a difference as the author.
