Innovator's solution: creating and sustaining successful growth / Christensen, Clayton M.; Raynor, Michael E. 2003  Book
Christensen, Clayton M. Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Massachusetts, Harvard Business School Press, 2003.
Description x, 304pBlack spine
Summary/Abstract In his worldwide bestseller The Innovator's Dilemma, Christensen explained how industry leaders get blindsided by disruptive innovations precisely because they focus too closely on their most profitable customers and businesses. The Innovator's Solution shows how companies get to the side of this dilemma, creating disruptions rather than being destroyed by them." "Drawing on years of in-depth research and illustrated by company examples across many industries, Christensen and Raynor argue that innovation can be a predictable process that delivers sustainable, profitable growth. They identify the forces that cause managers to make bad decisions as they package and shape new ideas - and offer new frameworks to help managers create the right conditions, at the right time, for a disruption to succeed." "Revealing counterintuitive insights that will change your perspective on innovation forever, this landmark book shows how to create a disruptive growth engine that fuels ongoing success.

Stone, Brad Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Corgi Books, 2013.
Description 464pWhite spine
Summary/Abstract This book is the definitive story of Amazon.com, one of the most successful companies in the world, and of its driven, brilliant founder, Jeff Bezos.It started in a garage in Seattle simply delivering books through its mail. However, its visionary founder Jeff Bezos was never content to be just a bookseller but wanted Amazon to become the 'everything' store, offering limitless selection and seductive convenience at disruptively low prices. This book tells the revelatory, no-holds barred true story of the global giant which has transformed retail in the same way Henry Ford revolutionized manufacturing. To do so, he developed a corporate culture of relentless ambition and secrecy that's never been cracked. Until now. Brad Stone enjoyed unprecedented access to current and former Amazon employees and Bezos family members, giving readers the first in-depth, fly-on-the-wall account of life at Amazon. Compared to tech's other elite innovators -- Jobs, Gates, Zuckerberg -- Bezos is a private man. But he stands out for his restless pursuit of new markets, leading Amazon into risky new ventures like the Kindle and cloud computing, and transforming retail in the same way Henry Ford revolutionized manufacturing. The Everything Store will be the revealing, definitive biography of the company that placed one of the first and largest bets on the Internet and forever changed the way we shop and read.

All of them advise us to chase Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, in order to make her our own. But the Indian approach to prosperity and fulfilment warns against the relentless pursuit of the goddess, writes noted thinker and mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik, as it will result in conflict. Rather, we have to give in order to get, we have to satisfy the hunger of others in order to satisfy our own.
