Recommendation

Professors Christian Stadler, Julia Hautz, Kurt Matzler and Stephan Friedrich von den Eichen describe the proven, centuries-old practice of open idea sourcing, involving diverse groups of insiders and outsiders. They fortify their fascinating examples and evidence with step-by-step frameworks and tools for crowdsourcing, strategy jams, contests and competitions – all designed to garner wide perspectives and diverse thought in service of innovation.

Take-Aways

  • “The wisdom of the crowds” matches or exceeds that of experts.
  • Disruption, unprecedented competition and complexity render traditional strategic planning obsolete.
  • Strategy involves asking, and answering, some key questions: “Where are you now? Where are you going? How will you get there?”
