Innovation is synonymous with problem solving, and the basic elements of innovation apply to any business, says Robert Price in this essential guide for managers of organisations large or small. Distilling a set of practical principles from his forty years of experience as a pioneer in the computer industry, the author shows that innovation can be learned and practiced by everyone, that it can offer solutions to everyday problems as well as high-profile ones, and that it provides opportunities to solve business problems while meeting a variety of human needs. Former CEO of Control Data, Price weaves the history of this uniquely innovative company with fresh thinking about innovation itself - what it means to the people in an organisation, the products and the processes. He avoids simplistic prescriptions and clearly explains seven fundamental principles of innovation: innovators are made, not born; technology is the strategic manager's best friend. He also illustrates them with fascinating real-life examples. This book offers both the practical tools and the inspiration to everyone with an interest in effective management practice and in building organisations that creatively and continuously respond to ever-changing social and market needs.
