Innovation to the Core: A Blueprint for Transforming the Way Your Company Innovates

If you're like most business leaders, innovation now tops your corporate agenda. But despite all the talk and excitement about the importance of innovation, managers have so far found scant help for innovating in a systematic way that fuels consistent growth and sustained success.

In Innovation to the Core, Strategos CEO Peter Skarzynski and business strategist Rowan Gibson change all that. They share the accumulated wisdom from Strategos--the consulting firm Skarzynski co-founded with Gary Hamel that helps clients instill innovation into their very core. Drawing on a wealth of stories and examples, the book shows how companies of every stripe have overcome the barriers to successful, profitable innovation. You'll find parts devoted to crucial topics--such as how to organize the discovery process, generate strategic insights, enlarge your innovation pipeline, and maximize your return on innovation. Frequent hands-on tools--frameworks, checklists, probing questions--help you put the book's ideas into action.

Crafted in close coordination with Gary Hamel--the man who Fortune magazine has called "the world's leading expert on business strategy"--Innovation to the Core is the definitive fieldbook for making innovation a core competence in your organization.

"At last, a book that tells us what innovation really is and how we can embed it into the DNA of our companies. A splendid guidebook with terrific examples."

-John Naisbitt, author, Megatrends and Mindset!

"Until now, innovation has been a religion without a bible. Innovation to the Core aptly fills the void."

- Al Ries, coauthor, The Origin of Brands

"Innovation to the Core is what so many books about innovation have failed to be--a prescriptive 'how-to' that enables managers and executives to really understand what it takes to make innovation a core competency of their companies. The detailed examples ensure that readers relate the theory to the business realities."

-Kelly Duffin-Maxwell, Senior Vice President, Breakthrough Innovation, Kraft Foods, Inc.
