About this title
A step-by-step guide to successfully transforming any organization
It is well recognized that succeeding at innovation is fundamental in today's hyper-competitive global marketplace. It is the only way to outperform current and emerging competitors sustainably. But what we call “innovation” is messy and difficult and too often lacks the rigor and discipline of other management processes. The Innovator's Field Guide: Market Tested Methods and Frameworks to Help You Meet Your Innovation Challenges changes that. It is a practical guide that moves beyond the “why” to the “how” of making innovation happen, for leaders and practitioners inside organizations of all sizes.
Written by two pioneers in the field of embedding innovation in organization, The Innovator's Field Guide focuses on the most pressing innovation problems and specific challenges innovation leaders will face and offers concrete solutions, tools, and methods to overcome them.
Any leader or professional who needs concrete solutions—right now—to the critical challenges of innovation will find invaluable aid in the practical, easy-to-understand, and market-tested approaches of The Innovator's Field Guide.
“This Field Guide provides the key work processes, including concepts, techniques, and frameworks, for leaders to implement and execute innovation across their business lines. The book positions innovation from the perspective that it is necessary both in core and adjacent business spaces, while stressing the need to ‘compete on competencies.’ There are consistent themes of process rigor and return metrics throughout the book – powerful disciplines for improving your success rate in converting ideas into sustainable revenues.”
—Jeffrey L. Boike, Director, Growth Platforms, UOP LLC, A Honeywell Company
