Innovation and Imagination at Work

2007-04-07T06:58:00.000+07:00

Out of all of the books that we have conceptualised and produced in the Management Today Series, the subject at the heart of this one remains the most paradoxical.
At the very core of organisational innovation is the concept of renewal, be it planned or otherwise. The clever bit is being able to turn the renewal process into a core competency that drives organisational strategy. That is the realm of 'management innovation', and what this book is about.

So, where is the paradox? Part of the response to that question lies in the Australian cultural context. We present as a people who want to be inventive, but we act as a culture that needs to mitigate risk. When we translate this to the business context, there is little common understanding and potential is unrealised.
Consider these facts. In a recent consumer research study, 96 percent of respondents rated 'inventiveness' as their top aspiration for the nation as a whole (Eye on Australia , Grey Worldwide Consumer Research Study, 2003). Yet, this heart-felt aspiration does not seem to be reflected in our businesses or organisations. For example, in a study conducted by AIM in the same year, as few as 20 percent of respondents, who were senior managers, indicated that their organisations were innovative or entrepreneurial. (Australian Business Leadership Survey: Stage 2 , AIM & Monash University, 2003).
What a yawning disconnect.
The aim of this book is to address the proposition that the majority of organisations do not understand the innovation process and, further, that the imagination-innovation-performance formula is either ignored or under-rated.
The most consistent feedback we receive about the Management Today Series is about the way each title grasps a theme and examines it in a 360 degree fashion, pulling apart the topic, going in deep, and repacking it in a series of short, sharp chapters. This book is no different, and presents a wide range of perspectives and approaches from leading management thinkers and practitioners.
In preparing for this second edition , we have taken an approach that we hope is appropriate for the subject. We have revisited and updated assumptions, combined incremental improvements with bold new additions, increased the practical takeouts and totally revamped the structure. What remains the same, however, is the high calibre of the work from our contributing authors.
The book begins with some big picture, scene-setting chapters, which will introduce you to new and challenging ways of thinking about the future and how you can survive and thrive there. Next come explorations of how to nurture imagination and creativity, and how to generate the ideas that drive innovation. The second half of the book presents strategic approaches to renewal and operational options for embedding innovation within your organisation. Finally, entrepreneurial capabilities and approaches are tackled to ensure that imagination and innovation are linked with commercial success. And, as in all of our books, the role of leadership is a consistent background theme in each of the chapters.
But what do we mean by innovation? There are a variety of definitions in this book, but here are some that we like. Innovation is the practical application of imagination; or imagining, capturing, developing and implementing new ideas. It can be described as positive change resulting in new products, services, strategies or processes; or as developing a systemic approach for generating, capturing and commercialising new ideas.
This book is underpinned by the assertion that innovation in business requires a senior managerial response, whether the innovation strategy is offensive, defensive, imitative, dependent or opportunistic. It is the purposeful use of one or all of these approaches that will make the difference in the marketplace of the future.
Here is a startling prediction: in the future cutting costs and remaining efficient will still be necessary for corporate survival, but they won't be enough. Think about it. In the continuously changing global environment, almost everything is commoditised in one form or another, and the pace of catch-up and speed-to-market is astoundingly quick. The things that yesterday made us special no longer give us the edge. Today organisations of all sizes rely on customer service as their chief differentiator. But look behind you.soon that too will be commoditised and no longer a competitive advantage. What will be our next response to a hungry, watchful and ruthless marketplace?
We have entered an era where ideas, not products, will be the heroes. The organisations that flourish will be those that can use the imaginative and emotional energies of their workforce to differentiate themselves and as a source of competitive advantage. But here is the kicker: we appear to have little depth of experience in this arena.
Another paradox: within our organisations there is recognition of the need for innovation, but few are actually committed to the process. Innovation is about harnessing the hearts and minds of people within our organisations.yet we are reluctant to use this giant, energetic, untapped resource. Innovation is dependent on employees at all levels having the confidence to try new ideas and be unafraid of mistakes.yet our organisations judge and reward employees based on their ability to mitigate and avoid risk. Why is this so?
Perhaps it is because unleashing imagination, capturing the ideas in peoples' heads and encouraging exploration require leaders who inspire trust. Research shows that transformational leadership and a healthy organisational culture are positively associated with the 'right climate' for innovation in business. So, like it or not, it is up to those in power and with power to lead the revolution.
Here is a simple test. Is innovation part of your organisation's vision, mission and higher-level goals? Are your senior managers performance managed on their meaningful responses to management innovation? Do you give employees time and space to think and communicate improvements and new ideas? Do you ask your customers what they want and actually think about your offerings?
Answer no to even one of these questions, and you have some work to do.
Do you feel we have taken moral ground that is too high? Not high enough would be our response. It is our assertion that dialogue about management innovation is not prevalent enough. Management innovation is not a fad; it is not going away. Innovation will remain a key part of the lexicon of successful organisations.
The territory of the future will be owned by those bold enough to travel new paths today. But, whether your organisation is large or small, introducing management innovation requires the most senior executives to be the journeymen. Why? Because permission to explore and fail, and the impetus to get back on the right path, comes with the mantle of leadership or ownership.

Life Matters : Creating a Dynamic Balance of Work, Family, Time & Money

2007-04-07T06:43:00.000+07:00

The Merrills, time management experts who co-authored First Things First with Stephen Covey (The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People), expand their range here to cover creative ways to successfully balance four major aspects of life: family, money, work and time. The premise of their program rests on what the authors call three gotta do's-validate expectations, optimize effort and develop navigational intelligence. For example, if you have determined for yourself and your family that financial security is important (validate expectations), it is necessary to take steps to achieve this (optimize effort) by, say, getting out of consumer debt. Navigational intelligence is the ability to make appropriate decisions when unpredictable events arise that may interfere with your focus.

The Merrills borrow a paradigm from their earlier book that divides tasks into four quadrants; urgent, not urgent, important and unimportant. Drawing on personal anecdotes, the authors show how this division can facilitate making choices that balance the requirements of a family life with earning a living. Their philosophy is based on the conviction that a strong family-centered life is one of the keys to happiness and central to a stable civilization. The Merrills recommend working with children to create a family mission statement; they advocate regular family meetings, shared family activities and scheduled "dates" between husbands and wives. This thoughtful self-help manual is not a quick read, but its advice is sound and can easily be applied to daily life.

The Cambridge Companion to Medieval Philosophy

2007-04-05T09:45:00.000+07:00

Review
"This book must be considered a very helpful companion, resulting from the contributors' hard work. The high level of the presentation of individual medieval philosphers--and of medieval thought in general--shows that each contributor has mastered their subject and put substantial work into the book. I believe that this volume has provided the opportunity to show the brillance of that work, which sometimes remains anonymous, without compensation or social acknowledgment." Francisco Bertelloni, The Medieval Review

Book Description
Spanning a millennium of thought extending from Augustine to Thomas Aquinas and beyond, this volume takes its readers into one of the most exciting periods in the history of philosophy. It includes not only the thinkers of the Latin West but also the profound contributions of Islamic and Jewish philosophers such as Avicenna and Maimonides. Leading specialists examine what it was like to study philosophy in the cultures and institutions of the Middle Ages. Supplementary material includes chronological charts and biographies of the major thinkers.

Approaches to Metaphysics

William Sweet, «Approaches to Metaphysics»

Springer ISBN 1402021828 2004 Year PDF 348 Pages 1.9MB

Today, when systematic philosophy - and reason itself - are challenged both outside of and within philosophy, is it still possible to do metaphysics? This volume provides a broad perspective on contemporary approaches to the nature and the fundamental questions of metaphysics. Drawing on scholars from continental Europe, Asia, Canada, the United States, and Great Britain, and representing a variety of philosophical cultures and traditions, this volume surveys and extends work in metaphysics and its implications for broader philosophical concerns (e.g., in ethics and social philosophy, in mathematics and logic, and in epistemology). It also addresses such questions as the role of history and historicity in undertaking metaphysics, the nature of metaphysics, the priority of metaphysics over epistemology, and the challenges of empiricism and postmodernism.

Jyoutisha-siddhanta-sara, The Essentials of Hindu Astrology

Author: Rama R Rao

Publisher: Kalpatharu Research Academy

Publication Date: 1994

Curiosity to know one’s future is both natural and universal; and therefore any method which attempts to unravel the mystery of the future has an attraction for the future has an Astrology, palmistry, numerology and various extrasensory processes which claim to predict the future have a popular appeal. An elementary knowledge of astronomy and a historical perspective are indispensable for a beginner. After going through the authoritative texts like Brihat Jataka, Brihat Parasara, Horasastra, Phaladipika etc., one arrives at the conclusion that the variables one has to tackle are far too many and the interpretations far too numerous and the task of integrating the diverse material is too complex. The subject requires deep study and one has to develop an insight and intuition to become a successful astrologer. The author has tried to present the essentials of Hindu Astrology with as objective an approach possible.

2007-03-27T13:31:00.000+07:00

Book Description

This easy-to-understand reference helps you bridge the GAAP to Lean accounting. It articulates the best attributes of Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, Theory of Constraints, balanced scorecard, activity-based management, and other world-class management philosophies in a single text.

Weight Loss That Lasts

2007-03-27T09:09:00.000+07:00

From Publishers Weekly

This straightforward, kindly volume provides a logical discussion of weight loss and the steps required to achieve and sustain it. Rippe (Heart Disease for Dummies), founder of the Rippe Lifestyle Institute (a nutrition, exercise and medical research organization), shares his own stories of weight gain and loss in the book's introduction, then spends the following 10 chapters breaking down what he identifies as the most popular weight-loss myths (e.g., "you can't lose weight and keep it off"; "you can lose weight with exercise alone"; "calories don't matter—avoid fats or carbs to lose weight successfully"; "you can boost your metabolism by what, how, and when you eat"). Each chapter includes an explanation of a myth and the kernels of truth and valid research that led to its perpetuation. Of course, the underlying basis for the book is that the way to achieve lasting, healthy weight loss is to follow the Weight Watchers method, and Rippe includes personal triumph stories from followers of that program. That quibble aside, a list of levelheaded suggestions (such as "Identify your five temptation foods. Develop specific strategies for dealing with them in a way that will reinforce learning the skill of flexible restraint") do clear away much of the confusion surrounding weight loss. (Jan.)

Review

“…this title examines common misconceptions that can sabotage a weight-loss program. Going into greater scientific detail than Neoporent and Schlosberg in explaining diet myths, Rippe (medicine, Tufts Univ. Sch. Of Medicine) also incorporates many of the Weight Watchers(r) principles into his comments. (from the Diet/Fitness roundup by Susan Hagloch) (Library Journal, January 15, 2005)

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

2007-03-26T09:33:00.000+07:00

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change was a groundbreaker when it was first published in 1990, and it continues to be a business bestseller with more than 10 million copies sold. Stephen Covey, an internationally respected leadership authority, realizes that true success encompasses a balance of personal and professional effectiveness, so this book is a manual for performing better in both arenas. His anecdotes are as frequently from family situations as from business challenges.

Before you can adopt the seven habits, you’ll need to accomplish what Covey calls a “paradigm shift”–a change in perception and interpretation of how the world works. Covey takes you through this change, which affects how you perceive and act regarding productivity, time management, positive thinking, developing your “proactive muscles” (acting with initiative rather than reacting), and much more. This isn’t a quick-tips-start-tomorrow kind of book. The concepts are sometimes intricate, and you’ll want to study this book, not skim it. When you finish, you’ll probably have Post-it notes or hand-written annotations in every chapter, and you’ll feel like you’ve taken a powerful seminar by Covey
