Description:
|
"In The Innovator's DNA, the authors identify five capabilities demonstrated by the best innovators: · Associating: drawing connections between questions, problems, or ideas from unrelated fields · Questioning: posing queries that challenge common wisdom · Observing: scrutinizing the behavior of customers, suppliers, and competitors to identify new ways of doing things · Experimenting: constructing interactive experiences and provoking unorthodox responses to see what insights emerge · Networking: meeting people with different ideas and perspectives The authors explain how to generate ideas with these skills, collaborate with "delivery-driven" colleagues to implement ideas, and build innovation skills throughout your organization to sharpen its competitive edge. They also provide a self-assessment for rating your own innovator's DNA. Practical and provocative, this book is an essential resource for all teams seeking to strengthen their innovative prowess"--Provided by publisher. "How can I innovate? How do I spot people who are more likely to generate disruptive business ideas for my organization? How can I help my team be more innovative? If you've ever asked yourself these questions, then you know there is no silver bullet for learning how to be more innovative. Indeed, conventional wisdom says that some people naturally and habitually have that "spark" and other people just don't."--Provided by publisher
