This text is a unique, original contribution and represents a significant alternative to the collection of chapters written by others.

The key subjects that are included have been significantly updated and treated in greater depth. The number of chapters has been reduced from 12 to 10 so it is easy to adapt to almost any course or training on the subject in any discipline or to any audience. This exceptionally informative book provides a broad perspective on how technological change can be effectively managed in modern organizations. The text explains the conceptual frameworks supported by new and original case studies for start-up companies like Askmen.com, the complex challenges of managing international technology-based companies like NexPress (a joint venture of Kodak and Heidelberg) in the digital printing industry, and corporate sustainability using innovative new product technologies illustrated by the case of Evinrude’s launch of the E-tec® outboard motor. John E. Ettlie's three decades in the field of innovation as an instructor and researcher bring an exceptional perspective to this subject. His text is unique in its discussion of how technology has transformed the service sector. Few books on technology make the distinction between new offerings in manufacturing and the service sector which is emphasized in this text.

Download or read book Disruptive Innovation and Digital Transformation written by Marguerite L. Johnson and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disruptive Innovation and Digital Transformation: 21st Century New Growth Engines is for executive leadership, senior management, innovation catalysts, and digital marketing teams tasked with transforming businesses by accelerating growth through disruptive innovations and digital capabilities. It is a practical guide with concise insights for understanding the applications of disruptive innovation and how to iteratively apply them to projects and opportunities. It garners insights from the best minds across relevant disciplines— from its original theory and latest updates—to arrive at new insights on digital transformation. The author evolves key approaches to disruptive innovation theory to reveal new digital applications and tells leaders what to look for– major categories of customers’ expectations in an escalating pattern to understand in what context digital plus disruptive innovations must be aligned with consumer preferences, environments, and the jobs-to-be-done, which is modeled in a new theory, Disruptive Innovation Customers’ Expectations (DICE). DICE provides methods to use to lead digital disruption across products, services, and business models. DICE translates the vague parts of disruptive innovation by simplifying them down to what-to-do. DICE takes away the elusive nature of disruptive innovation by advising leaders: how to scan, to track, and to detect disruptions. This book provides leaders with the right lenses to fillter markets, giving order to complexity, and making disruptive innovation simpler.

Book Managing Innovation and Change

Download or read book Managing Innovation and Change written by Sven B. Lundstedt and published by Springer. This book was released on 1989-02-28 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the management of industrial innovation in a time of rapid economic and social change, specifically in the last quarter of a century and the coming 21st century. It is international and cross-cultural in scope in that comparisons are drawn among several countries in the East and West. The various chapters give up-to-date impressions by industrial leaders and academic analysts present trends in industrial strategy and in manufacturing tehcnology. The trends suggest also the form that future strategies may take in the future. They are characterized by a greater reliance upon information and computer applications, more efficient use of human resources, improvements in the quality of working life and an emphasis upon international perspectives. Innovation is seen as a process that includes all of the subsequent steps leading to the development, marketing and diffusion of products. It follows that the term "innovation management" must also mean the particular organizational and managerial structures and processes that contribute to the success, or failure, of innovations. One consequence of social changes in organizations has been a definite trend toward new, flexible, organizational forms.

Book excerpt: Boyer/Verma’s breakthrough text meets today’s student and instructor’s needs and redefines the marketplace. Their text is briefer than most, taking all of the vital core concepts and building upon them with current and fresh examples. The authors understand the importance of striking a balance by creating a book that does an even better job at covering the core concepts while also providing customers with a new product that fully addresses and approaches this course area from today’s teaching and learning perspectives and actual business practices. The three unifying themes throughout the book are Strategy, Global Supply Chain, and Service Operations. Strategy will serve as an overarching framework and will be used in each chapter to present students with an alternative approach to specific challenges. The authors uses examples from non-US companies and/or organizations in each chapter to incorporate Service Operations in the book. They also show that even some of the largest manufacturing companies today have extensive service activities such as customer support and product development. The Global Supply Chain theme will allow students to see how products move through different companies and countries with Boyer/Verma’s use of real world examples throughout his text. In addition the robust Cnow course allows instructors and students to go beyond the printed text to get the most from this exciting operations management program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any organization must ask three interrelated questions in order to develop its strategy: where are we, where do we want to be, and how will we get there? While the questions do not change over time, the realities and environments that companies face do. Given today's realities, how should companies answer these questions as they face the challenges of the 21st century? In this book, leading business school educators use their academic, yet managerially-relevant, research to explore these questions. They divide the book into three sections - Understand Your Situation, Develop Your Options, and Lead the Change - and take the reader through some of the latest thinking that helps answer these questions. All the authors have extensive international experience of working with senior managers and are well known academic researchers in their field. They present their ideas in a straightforward, lively, and purposeful way. Their goal is to inform, challenge, and provide practical advice and tools. The book serves as a guide to a range of contemporary business challenges, such as managing uncertainty, creating new markets through innovation, energizing people, leading clever people in organizations with limited hierarchy, and introducing radical change. The central focus is on the core concerns and responsibilities of senior management - strategy and leadership. Clear, crisp, and to the point, this book provides an invaluable and coherent summary of some of the best current business school thinking on contemporary challenges facing organizations. It will be an ideal guide for both MBAs and practicing managers.
