Editorial Review: Product Description: More than a decade ago, Clayton Christensen's breakthrough book The Innovator's Dilemma illustrated how disruptive innovations drive industry transformation and market creation. Christensen's research demonstrated how growth-seeking incumbents must develop the capability to deflect disruptive attacks and seize disruptive opportunities. In The Innovator's Guide to Growth, Scott Anthony, Mark Johnson, Joseph Sinfield, and Elizabeth Altman take the subject to the next level: implementation. The authors explain how to create this crucial capability for unlocking disruption's transformational power. With a foreword by Christensen, this book provides a set of market-proven tools and approaches to innovation that have been honed through fieldwork with innovative companies like Procter & Gamble, Johnson & Johnson, Pepsi, Intel, Motorola, SAP, and Cisco Systems. The book shows you how to: Incisive and practical, this book helps your company take the steps necessary to benefit from disruption -- instead of being eclipsed by it. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Read The Innovator's Solution, skip this oneThgis is a very light version of The Innovator's Solution which, I believe, was a masterpiece. You can hardly find in this book the depth and strength which was present in The Innovator's Solution. This is more a company (i.e. Innosight) publicity material and an ecletic strategy manuscript than anything of real practical and academic value.

So, what do the authors of this book offer that is new? In fact, as I intend to indicate, they offer a great deal and much of the credit must be given to Scott Anthony who is a long-time and close associate of Clayton Christensen's and co-author with him of Seeing What's Next: Using Theories of Innovation to Predict Industry Change. The author of The Innovator's Dilemma and The Innovator's Solution ...

Altman, the authors present a methodology for making disruptive innovation part of your company's culture. Along the way, I had my thoughts twisted a bit as to how best to disrupt the standard playing field, while not going ... Read More Rating: - The book on implemeting disruptive innovationSo Geoffrey Moore has the Chasm Companion. Now the field of innovative disruption so clearly identified by Clayton Christensen has its own implementation book. Like anything put out by Innosight, Christensen's consulting company, the book is thorough from end to end. If you read nothing else you must read the Summary and FAQs at the end. I read it in two lengthy sittings. It is a fascinating read that starts out talking to established companies like P&G , Intel and RIM. Then it hits its stride and the ...
