Stop the Innovation Wars
Govindarajan, Vijay; Trimble, ChrisArtículo HBS-R1007F-ESpecial teams dedicated to innovation initiatives inevitably run into conflict with the rest of the organization. The people responsible for ongoing operations view the innovators as undisciplined upstarts. The innovators dismiss the operations people as bureaucratic dinosaurs. It's natural to separate the two warring groups. But it's also dead wrong, say Tuck Business School's Govindarajan and Trimble. Nearly all innovation initiatives build on ...Desde 8,20 €

But all these teams have something in common: They are internal partnerships. The two entities of the partnership are the Performance Engine (the organization's ongoing operations) and a Dedicated Team. The Dedicated Team consists of people who will work on the innovation initiative full time. The subset of Performa...Desde 8,20 €

Making Innovation Happen: The Importance of a Custom Organizational Model and a Dedicated Project Plan
Govindarajan, Vijay; Trimble, ChrisCapítulo de Libro HBS-7053BC-EMost well-managed companies are adept at two basic models for innovation execution: 1) The innovation = ideas + motivation formula, which can generate thousands of small initiatives but cannot support major projects, and 2) The innovation = ideas + process formula, which can efficiently crank out innovation after innovation, as long as each one is a repeat of a prior effort. In this chapter, the authors introduce the thesis of their book, which i...Desde 8,20 €

Break Down the Hypothesis: The Importance of the Hypothesis of Record in Evaluating the Progress of an Innovation Initiative
Govindarajan, Vijay; Trimble, ChrisCapítulo de Libro HBS-7062BC-ESimple innovations-for example, to improve a process-often have just one unknown. Game-changing innovations, however, have several. That makes the learning challenge more complex. It becomes crucial to break down the hypothesis from an aggregate conjecture to the smaller assumptions that the larger goal depends on. In a best-case scenario, each unknown is isolated and separately tested in laboratory-like conditions. More often, though, the unknow...Desde 8,20 €
