The Power of Collaborative Innovation
Industries are discovering that much of their
future growth depends on the ability to
collaborate with different actors to build
public-private partnerships, galvanize multiple
stakeholders and work with fast-growing
competitors.
What is the framework for the modern MNC to
evaluate and initiate alliances and partnerships
across multiple countries, interests and sectors
worldwide?

Google Tech Talks
May, 14 2008
ABSTRACT
The initial reaction and subsequent adoption
patterns innovative designs receive often surprise
their designers. But, regardless of the care and
passion any designer embeds in a novel creation,
the ultimate success metric can rest on the
design's intended functional effectiveness and
subsequent adoption rate on the design's ultimate
proving ground.
With warship design, well-intentioned, but
ultimately misguided, design goals and
applications can result in a harsh, swift, and
unforgiving annihilation of the fledgling
technology embodiment, its immediate attendants,
as well as it's delivery platform. It is also true
that failing to adopt a timely design innovation
can have the same consequence. In either case,
outcomes can prove catastrophic to participants.
Here, reality, not opinion provides an acid test.
This presentation focuses on warship evolution and
a few of its several lessons for designers in
nearly all vocations. From wooden warships to
today's floating steel leviathans, Warship
Evolution examines design innovators, their
decisions, and exogenous events that shaped
today's modern warships. As the anchor rises from
the seabed and lights dim, prepare to lash
yourself to a sturdy mast before traversing
warship design history, safely out of harms way.

| Innovation at Stanford -- A Song |
 |
My final project for a class called "Innovation &
Implementation in Complex Organizations," offered
by the Hasso Platner Institute of Design at
Stanford University (d.school).
It's a tribute to Gordon MacKenzie's "Orbiting the
Giant Hairball," a book which offers some insights
on how large and complex organizations can
innovate.
And seriously, I do need a job. Feel free to
contact me if you've got anything in product
management, business development or marketing.
Thanks! Tags : Stanford creativity innovation d.school back orbit |

The Innovation Mantra: The Key to Asian
Competitiveness?
Citing innovation as the key to global
competitiveness has become a reflex in Asia. But
is innovation understood, and applied, in the
context of meeting the unmet needs of consumers
and markets through insight and invention? Is an
incremental, product-based approach the best for
Asia? Which industries and companies have it
right, and which have it wrong, in Asia? What has
been the track record of governments so far to
foster real innovation?
