Innovation and Design

Catalog description

Many firms that have experienced dramatic gains in shareholder value over the last few years(e.g. Google Apple Motorola) register innovation as a central driver of their progress. One can argue that innovation and a culture that inspires and supports innovation is the only sustainable competitive advantage. A frequent manifestation of recent innovation has been breakthrough design. Design represents a powerful alternative to the dominant management approaches of the last few decades and is an important perspective for leadership to embrace.
