by Jeff Dyer
Dyer identifies five skills, associating, questioning, observing, networking, experimenting, that set innovative entrepreneurs apart. Innovation is not innate talent but learnable discovery habits.
The books Jeff Dyer references, cites, and recommends most frequently.
by Clayton Christensen
Christensen explains why successful companies fail: they rationally ignore disruptive innovations that initially serve small, unprofitable markets, until those markets overtake them entirely.
by Jim Collins
Collins studied why some good companies become great and others do not. The answer: disciplined people, disciplined thought, and disciplined action, not bold transformation programmes.
