Recommendation

Businesses everywhere have attempted to mimic the innovative cultures of Apple, Amazon and Toyota, but most fail. This study by innovation experts Jez Humble, Joanne Molesky and Barry O’Reilly aims to demystify how the best organizations got to the top and stayed there. The authors explain a variety of Running Lean strategies that commercial giants deploy successfully. To their credit, they don’t promise that innovation is easy, nor do they pretend that a one-size-fits-all solution will fix a company’s problems. Instead, they break down experienced companies’ victories and defeats and detail actionable steps you can apply to your organization.

Take-Aways

  • Efficient, innovative operations nurture employee autonomy.
  • The Lean Startup model offers a roadmap for implementing innovation.
  • Lean enterprises build a case for innovation.
