Description of  Lean Innovation: Understanding What's Next in Today's Economy

We would love to be more innovative, but we dont have the resources Innovation works in some companies we just arent that creative We get some good ideas, but nothing ever happens with them Unfortunately, they reflect the general perception and environment for innovation in many firms today. In Lean Innovation: Understanding What's Next in Today's Economy, Barry Cross explores how to use Lean to free up resources from within the organization to support and fund innovation and inspire a culture of creativity. Easy to read and humorous, Cross stories resonate and his tactics are very applicable. He demonstrates that you likely have the people needed to drive innovation. Based on Crosss twenty-five years of experience, and filled with stories and anecdotes from a number of industries, the book presents a different look at innovation and how to recognize opportunities for moving past merely talking about innovation to action and making it a priority. The author examines roadblocks and how to use enablers like Lean to facilitate and focus the approach on driving the focus forward, to the place where creativity in our ranks is more important that responding to an email and where the organization isnt afraid to make an existing product redundant in favor of a new opportunity.
