John Bessant

Once upon a time I was an engineer (though these days I'd probably blow things up rather than make chemical stuff!) I got the innovation bug while working in industry trying to figure out how to manage this wonderful process, wrote my doctorate about it and somehow have stayed with it ever since, researching, teaching and especially writing about it. I'm still finding out new stuff (because innovation is a moving target, the game is constantly changing) and still trying to capture some insights and share them. I'm also trying to innovate myself, using new media like videos, podcasts and even writing and singing songs to add to the books about innovation.
