A Reverse-Innovation Playbook
Govindarajan, VijayArticle HBS-R1204J-EStrategyReverse innovation--developing ideas in an emerging market and coaxing them to flow uphill to Western markets--poses immense challenges, because it requires a company to overcome the institutionalized thinking that guides its actions.

The U.S.-based business, known for ultrasophisticated dashboard audiovisual systems designed by German engi...Starting at €8.20

However, necessity spawns innovation. Despite the pressing demand and constrained supply, a few relatively new Indian hospitals have devised ways of providing world-class health ca...Starting at €8.20

Transforming Health Care from the Ground Up
Govindarajan, Vijay; Ramamurti, RaviArticle HBS-R1804G-ELeadership and People ManagementThe U.S. health care system needs reform, but too often experts focus on top-down solutions stemming from federal policy changes. Such efforts alone, however, cannot fix a wasteful and misdirected system. What's needed is innovation driven by doctors, nurses, administrators, entrepreneurs, and even patients who are devising new solutions to daily challenges. This article looks at two examples of bottom-up innovation, each involving a radical tran...Starting at €8.20
