A Fast Path from Knowledge to Value
In Lean Innovation, Claus Sehested and Henrik Sonnenberg reveal how the interplay between creativity and efficiency can ensure that top management visions are realized through innovation initiatives. Lean can take the innovation initiatives to a higher level and transform the company’s innovation processes into its most important strategic competence.
In their book, the authors of Lean Innovation deal with the key challenges faced by managers in knowledge organizations and present a series of principles that can be used to bring more leadership into the innovation initiatives. They also discuss methods for creating a clearer focus on results and learning in innovative organizations’ core processes.
Ecco, LINAK, Ramboll Oil & Gas, Exhausto and Coloplast are among the companies that have contributed with examples of how this can be achieved.
