Download or read book The Disruptive Innovation Set 2 Books written by Clayton M. Christensen and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2024-04-30 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive books on one of the most influential business ideas of our time, disruptive innovation. His work is cited by the world's best-known thought leaders, from Steve Jobs to Malcolm Gladwell. In these classic bestsellers, innovation expert Clayton Christensen shows how even the most outstanding companies can do everything right—yet still lost market leadership. In The Innovator's Dilemma, Christensen presents his theory of disruptive innovation and explains that, no matter the industry, a successful company with established products will get pushed aside unless managers know how and when to abandon traditional business practices. In The Innovator's Solution, Christensen and his coauthor, Michael Raynor, expand on the idea of disruption, showing how companies can and should become disruptors themselves. Sharp, cogent, and provocative, these are the two books that no manager, leader, or entrepreneur should be without.
Download or read book Commercialisation and Innovation Strategy in Small Firms written by Tim Mazzarol and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the process of commercialisation and innovation management in small firms. Although commercialisation and new product development (NPD) has been covered quite extensively, relatively little attention has been given to how small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) engage with these issues. The book explores this topic in depth, taking a close look at the reasons why decisions are made and mapping this behaviour against established theories and “best practice” models of NPD and commercialisation. The book uses case studies to analyse the relationship between entrepreneurial decision- making and commercialisation, and investigates how and why NPD and commercialisation decisions are made, which offers valuable insights from both a theoretical and applied perspective.

Download or read book The Power of Little Ideas written by David Robertson and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional wisdom today says that to survive, companies must move beyond incremental, sustaining innovation and invest in some form of radical innovation. "Disrupt yourself or be disrupted!" is the relentless message company leaders hear. The Power of Little Ideas argues there's a "third way" that is neither sustaining nor disruptive. This low-risk, high-reward strategy is an approach to innovation that all company leaders should understand so that they recognize it when their competitors practice it, and apply it when it will give them a competitive advantage. This distinctive approach has three key elements: It consists of creating a family of complementary innovations around a product or service, all of which work together to make that product more appealing and competitive. The complementary innovations work together as a system to carry out a single strategy or purpose. Crucially, unlike disruptive or radical innovation, innovating around a key product does not change the central product in any fundamental way. In this powerful, practical book, Wharton professor David Robertson illustrates how many well-known companies, including CarMax, GoPro, LEGO, Gatorade, Disney, USAA, Novo Nordisk, and many others, used this approach to stave off competitive threats and achieve great success. He outlines the organizational practices that unintentionally torpedo this approach to innovation in many companies and shows how organizations can overcome those challenges. Aimed at leaders seeking strategies for sustained innovation, and at the quickly growing numbers of managers involved with creating new products, The Power of Little Ideas provides a logical, organic, and enduring third way to innovate.

Download or read book Informal Sector Innovations written by Mammo Muchie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well documented that the space of informal economic activity is rising across the globe. This rise has been particularly significant in the least developed and developing countries, especially after the onset of neo-liberal policies and withdrawal of welfare state. There has also been a shift in academic thinking on informal sector, with attempts being made to understand the contribution of informal sector in generating employment and economic growth rather than focusing solely on exploitative labour conditions in these economic activities. Indeed, with the retreat of welfare state and the introduction of contract labour in the formal sector, many issues related to occupational hazards and improper labour conditions do not remain unique to the informal sectors of the economy, particularly in less developed countries. This volume addresses a specific concern: the issue of knowledge generation and innovative activities, which lies at the core of sustained competitive advantage of these activities. The chapters in this book were originally published in the African Journal of Science Technology Innovation and Development.
