Pursuing The Innovator's Solution to The Innovator's Dilemma

摘要

Seldom do I remember a book that totally replaces the old and popular business literature quite as effectively as Seeing What's Next does in superceding The Innovator's Dilemma (Harvard Business School Press, 1997) and The Innovator's Solution (Harvard Business School Press, 2003). If you have not read either of those books, you can skip them now and read Seeing What's Next instead. If you have already read those books, you will be delighted to see how much more practical the advice is in Seeing What's Next than in the earlier two efforts. If you don't know The Innovator's Solution, that is the book in which Harvard Professor Clayton M. Christensen discussed the problem that existing companies have in identifying and responding appropriately to disruptive technology innovations rather than continuing innovations. In The Innovator's Solution, Professor Christensen proposed a series of theories about what an appropriate response might look like. Now, in Seeing What's Next, he and his co-authors, Scott D. Anthony and Erik A. Roth, describe how to apply the theories of The Innovator's Solution while proposing a few new theories.
