What is Innovation?
Everyday we some millions of dots that shape our notions and thinking
These notions help us in taking our decision and making future plans
Most of the traditional business is based on these dots and whole
businesses are built on them
But some people see new dots that were either forgotten, misplaced or misinterpreted
These dots shape our notion and strike an out of the blue idea
Innovation
Business SurvivalAs Alan M. Kantrow, editor of Harvard Business Review, once put it, "For companies to
survive a discontinuity they must face the rather unpalatable reality that there may have
to be fundamental changes in who they are, what they do, and how they do it, as
wrenching and dislocating as it may be."
For Better ReturnsOne American study found that the overall rate of return for some 17
successful innovations made in the 1970s averaged 56%! Compare that with
the 16% average return on investment for all American business over the
past 30 years.
Competitive AdvantageCompanies that use and act on their insights get a jump on the competition. They are the competition. They
leave behind those that are lulled by the security of strong, enduring economic performance and the
conventional corporate wisdom that stays the course. Often, the leader loses. The battle is swift; it's too late
to respond. This is not a theory. It is fact.
