12 innovation with it1
It is well known that innovation with IT enables new business models (e.g., Amazon, iTunes), new products and services (e.g., tablets, mobile banking), new or improved processes (e.g., ERP, supply chain), and cost savings (e.g., self-service, offshore
sourcing). Yet, such innovation is still very much a hit-or-miss proposition. For as
many successful innovations as there are with technology, there are an equal or greater
number of failures. Furthermore, although it is possible to do many innovative things
with technology, it is much more difficult to find the ones that will deliver real and sus-
tainable value to an organization.
IT organizations have always been expected to improve what is currently being
done but it is much more difficult to undertake something that is different from what has
traditionally been done. When innovating with technology, not only must the market
be ready for the innovation (i.e., timing), but also network effects and complementary
products and services must be available for it to succeed (e.g., one telephone is not
very useful; mobile banking failed before the introduction of smart phones). Finally,
many innovations fail because an organization’s culture cannot sustain or exploit
them (e.g., Kodak with digital imaging). In short, successful innovation is still a bit of
a mystery and many IT leaders are trying to explore how best to operationalize it to
deliver real business value.
This chapter explores innovation—an organization’s need to reinvent its products
and services and occasionally itself—with a focus on IT-enabled innovation. We begin
by examining why innovation is critical, and how/why IT is driving most innova-
tion today. Following this, we examine various types of innovation. Then we present a
typical innovation life cycle and examine some of the challenges encountered by orga-
nizations when attempting to achieve innovation. In the final section of this chapter, we
offer advice for managing IT-enabled innovation.

The Need for INNovaTIoN: aN hIsTorIcal PersPecTIve
It is well-established that the need to innovate is necessary for long-term organiza-
tional survival (Christensen and Raynor 2003; Hamel and Välikangas 2003). According
to Christensen (1997), there are two types of innovation: sustaining and disruptive.
Sustaining innovation improves an existing product or enhances an existing service for
an existing customer. In contrast, disruptive innovation targets noncustomers and deliv-
ers a product or service that fundamentally differs from the current product portfolio.

Pros:
- Decentralized: No single entity controls the bitcoin network or currency supply. Transactions occur peer-to-peer without an intermediary.
- Pseudonymous: Users can transact without revealing personal identifying information.
- Borderless: Bitcoin can be used globally without restrictions of geography or regulation.
- Limited supply: Only 21 million bitcoins can ever be created according to its coding, unlike fiat currencies which face inflation.
Cons:
- Volatility: Bitcoin prices are highly volatile and fluctuate greatly on a daily basis.

Introduction:
Tourism is a highly dynamic and competitive industry that is constantly evolving to meet the changing demands and passions of travelers. Destinations must innovate to stay relevant, attract visitors, and remain economically viable. This essay will discuss the importance of innovation in tourism and explore some examples of how destinations and businesses have innovated to enhance the tourism experience.
Importance of Innovation in Tourism:
There are several reasons why innovation is so important in tourism. First, travelers' tastes and interests are always shifting, so destinations must adapt offerings to remain appealing. Second, new technologies are transforming how people plan, book, and experience trips. Tourism providers must embrace these technologies. Third

This document discusses the importance of innovation and technological changes for businesses to remain competitive. It notes that customers now expect more than just products and are influenced by modern preferences. As a result, businesses must embrace change and innovation to survive. The document will analyze the relationship between spending on research and development (R&D) and a company's level of innovation. Specifically, it will examine whether heavily investing in R&D directly leads to higher innovation, or if other factors also influence a company's ability to innovate.
Here are the key points about risk management in technology intensive organizations:
- These organizations use an analysis approach to forecast risks associated with tasks and processes used to produce goods and services. This helps identify potential risks upfront.
- Schedule compression analysis is used to evaluate key barriers and bottlenecks. This helps develop plans to achieve objectives more efficiently by addressing risks that could cause delays.
- Traditional management may not employ formal risk forecasting and proactive risk management techniques. Technology organizations recognize the need to systematically analyze and plan for risks due to the complex nature of their work.
- The analysis approach allows organizations to maintain smooth workflows by considering risks at each stage of production. Issues can be mitigated before causing disruptions.
How any organisation can drive culture and design systems to pursue practical...Toby Farren
This whitepaper will provide an insight into the different elements of modern innovation fostering,
including the various factors determining the capability of organisations to innovate internally;
the differences between frontend and backend innovation; and a focus on the relatively new
‘open’ innovation methods (including the advantages of utilizing sandboxes in the frontend
innovation process as well as collaborating with external bodies).
The document discusses factors for success and failure in innovation. It outlines an innovation growth model with 5 phases (adhoc, program, co-creation, eco-innovation, value chain innovation) and the challenges of moving between each phase. Key success factors discussed are people, management processes, tools, and opening innovation processes to external partners through co-creation.
This document provides a methodology for innovation at both the organizational and regional levels. It outlines a multi-step process including an initial kick-off, audit, ideas lab, implementation, roll-out, and continuous improvement. For organizations, the focus is on discrete innovation projects. For regions, the approach centers on continuous innovation through business incubation activities, research, idea generation, and implementation of infrastructure and support services. Key activities at the regional level include clustering industries and knowledge transfer partnerships.
The document discusses a diversity certificate program that the author has enrolled in. It notes that initially the author was unsure about joining due to their busy schedule, but after learning more about the benefits and opportunities provided by the program, they decided it would be a great opportunity. The program allows flexibility so the author can complete it while still graduating on schedule. No other details are provided about the specific requirements or content of the diversity certificate program.
This document summarizes Praveen Gupta's article about adapting John Kotter's model of leading change to managing innovation in organizations. The key points are:
1. Kotter's eight-stage process for leading change is adapted to driving innovation in corporations by establishing urgency for innovation, creating a guiding coalition, developing a vision and strategy, and communicating the change vision.
2. A new "Brinnovation" framework is presented that builds on employees' talents and simplifies the innovation process with strategies, rules, and a methodology.
3. Creating a culture of innovation requires changing organizational practices to inspire, implement, and reward innovations, such as emphasizing growth over short-term profits and inspiring employee

The document discusses the struggles facing the city of Benghazi, Libya located on the arid coastline. Political instability stemming from Gaddafi's overthrow in 1969 and subsequent dictatorships and militant groups have led to deaths and displacement of thousands. Additionally, reliance on an underground aquifer for fresh water leaves infrastructure vulnerable amid power outages and bombings during ongoing conflict. Between an unstable government, threats from ISIS, and an unreliable water source, Benghazi faces the risk of further losses.

Here are a few key points regarding Jewish assimilation and its impact on Judaism:
- Complete assimilation, where Jews fully abandon their religious/cultural identity, has clearly been detrimental to preserving Judaism as a distinct religion and culture. If all Jews assimilated in this way, Judaism would cease to exist.
- However, some level of assimilation into the surrounding non-Jewish culture and adoption of certain secular cultural practices has also allowed Judaism to survive and adapt over time. Isolating the Jewish community completely could have made it more vulnerable.
- The debate centers around finding the right balance between maintaining a distinct Jewish identity and allowing for some cultural blending. Too much of either could threaten Jewish continuity in

This document discusses the benefits of using convection allowing models (CAMs) for storm prediction. CAMs provide explicit information about storm properties like initiation, type, motion, longevity and intensity that can help forecasters. Novel guidance is needed to summarize CAM output in ways that are easily understood by forecasters. Previous research has shown proof of concept for producing severe weather guidance using CAM forecasts, by identifying locations of intense simulated storms using updraft helicity, and applying thresholds to identify severe convection. Further research aims to improve upon these methods and develop additional guidance products.

This essay discusses the issue of horse jump racing, where horses race across tracks jumping fences and ditches. Some argue it is dangerous and harmful for horses, citing statistics that jumps races result in up to 20 times more horse fatalities than flat races. Others believe accidents are rare and precautions are taken. However, the essay argues jump racing is demanding and training methods can be harmful. Recent horse deaths at races in Australia and South Australia demonstrate the risks, with 17 horses dying in SA alone since 2009. Overall the essay takes the position that jump racing is too dangerous for horses.

Here is a draft essay analyzing the view that American policies drove Japan into war in 1941:
[INTRODUCTION]
The outbreak of war between Japan and the western powers in 1941 is a complex historical issue with reasonable arguments on both sides. On one hand, American economic sanctions applied pressure on Japan and limited its access to vital resources. However, Japan also had its own imperial ambitions in Asia that contributed to rising tensions. A balanced assessment recognizes factors on both sides.

Interpretation B provides evidence that American policies put economic strain on Japan and threatened its ability to continue operations in China. The oil embargo of 1940 was a major blow as over 80% of Japan's oil imports came from the

This document summarizes and critiques Anselm's ontological argument for God's existence. It outlines Anselm's key points that the greatest conceivable being must exist in reality, not just in the mind, and that not existing would contradict this being's greatness. However, the document argues this is flawed, as just because something is conceived does not mean it exists in reality, like an imagined painting. While Anselm's argument is one of the better philosophical proofs for God's existence, it still has issues and does not prove God must truly exist.

From a scientific perspective, the second law of thermodynamics shows that entropy increases over time in the physical world, analogous to the idea of evil. While the existence of evil and suffering poses a challenge to the notion of an all-good God, the author analyzes Pannenberg and Keller's theological approaches to theodicy in dialogue with modern science.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

5. Example Of Disruptive Innovation
Disruptive innovation was a term coined by Professor Clayton Christensen (A US Scholar and
Teacher) of the Harvard Business School in his 1997 book, 'The Innovator's Dilemma'. Professor
Christensen said, in order for a business to be disruptive, it must gain a foothold in a low–end
market (Christensen Institute, 2017). Disruptive innovation can be described as a specific way that
smaller companies can outcompete, and probably even destroy bigger rivals in the same industry.
Sometimes this could even be a corporate strategy to gain a foothold in industrial domination or a
greater market share.
Over the past few decades, there have been several kinds of disruptive innovations that have
changed markets globally, thus affecting our daily lives. For example the gratification of having cell
phones to make phone calls at any given place to the time when we need only our cell phone as the
single gadget replacing our camera, Walkman, recorder, alarm clock, torch, computer, telephone, TV
and much more. These transformations have transitioned into our everyday lives (SEIER CAPITAL,
2017).

Important lesson learned from innovative process
The innovation process is similar to evolutionary process. It is dynamically a process of
improvement and adaptation that gives the organization ability to survive in a business environment
and thrive. A good innovation process is proactive and not reactive and can have all or some of five
elements;
1. Recognition or identification of a problem or opportunity that can be pursued. This is in terms of
human aid provision.
2. Inventing a solution. This aids in addressing the problem recognized or seizing of an opportunity.
3. Development of innovation. This is done by creating plans and guidelines that are practical and
actionable.
4. Implementation of innovation. This is done in small phases and in controlled setting. It tests the
innovation to show how it compares to the process that already exists.
5. Adoption of innovation that is successful. This involves taking the innovation to a wider scale and
adopting it.
This process of innovation looks linear. This however might not be the case. Innovation stages can
be overlapping phases in which many innovations pass (Cantner, 11/10/2010). In reality the process
is iterative and nonlinear. Some innovations are discarded before they even get passed some stages
and later revived after a different application. There is no defined path for innovation. Most are

introduced to a peripheral perspective economic industry. Past the industry era, traditional financial
performance measures such as return–on–investment and earnings–per–share were deemed no
longer competent in the ever–changing market. The view of focussing on either financial or non–
financial perspectives alone were regarded as one–dimensional and ignorant of other crucial factors
in both the company and the market.
In 1992, Kaplan and Norton introduced a revamped management system that focusses on not only
the financial measures of a company, but also the operational measures. This system comes after a
realisation that no single measure can provide a vivid performance target on the critical areas of a
business. The system provides managers the platform to view the business from four vital
perspectives; Customer, internal, innovation and learning, and financial perspectives.
These perspective are interdependent, they collaborate to form an efficient system that can track

Radical innovation should present a new product, service, practice or solution that significantly
differs from previous experience. It usually comes with higher risks as there is no prior knowledge
and competences are low (Schilling, 2011:vi). Introducing of a third generation (3G) telephony
could be a good illustration of a radical innovation. 3G was launched with an increased bandwidth
that could not only transmit a voice, but support more diverse multimedia applications
(http://searchtelecom.techtarget.com). To switch from 2G to 3G the telecommunication service
required significant investment in development of relevant equipment and infrastructure, such as
larger device display, memory and battery capacity, etc. Besides, it was not quite clear how would
customers react to this innovation. So, companies and their managers, had to evaluate different risks
simultaneously, including technical achievability, reliability, costs, and demand.
Incremental innovation, on the other hand, does not need to be an exceptionally new or
revolutionary. It can be the same product, service or process with simple adjustments or minor

be summarized as follows: i) the internal crowd (employees) is known to the firm; ii) the crowd can
be all employees of the firm, a subsidiary of the firm, or may also include partners and suppliers; iii)
the crowd is specifically used for problem solving or aggregating ideas for innovation purposes; and
iv) the crowd may also be anyone with internet or mobile remote access capable of participating in a
crowdsourcing contest and vote on the ideas of others.
Internal crowdsourcing is easier to implement in companies where social media acceptance is high

Steve Jobs is known to be eccentric when it comes to strategy and business because he strives to
become a market leader by dominating the competitors in customer loyalty, distribution and

strongly with the quality of its products and services.

One of the popular examples of companies that successfully integrated social media in product
development is Quirky. Quirky is a community company that allows every user to join their product
development community. People in the community can suggest innovative ideas, provide feedbacks,
and vote for the best innovations. Quirky will then manufacture and distribute the product with most
votes. Given its high demand in the market, it has 1,174,402 people in the community and invented
over 291,600 products since 2009 (Quirky, 2016).

VI. Effectiveness of Social Media in NPD
Social media creates value to any phase of product development process. It builds a customer–
centric organisational structure that increases the interaction and intimacy between the company and
its consumer. It has the capability to change the market structures and relations between market
participants profoundly (Piller, Vossen & lhl, 2011). Small companies usually prefer social media in
NPD to increase its market potentials and resources, stay competitive and be connected with its
consumers. Large organisation, similarly, used social media to improve the relationship with the

monitor online communities, develop new communication channels, and enhance their
understanding on the customer needs (Rajagopal, 2013). Source of innovation can also be gathered

36. Analysis Of Alexander Mann Solution's Innovative Strategy
Introduction
Innovation can be defined as the introduction of a new product, process or market by an
organization. According to Pearce & Robinson (2011), organizations are innovative when they
succeed in turning ideas into revenues. However, Petkovska (2015), states that it takes more than
ideas to be innovative, firms have to invest in their time, resources as well as technology in order to
bring the ideas into fruition. Firms must decide which type of innovation to focus on as there are
several types. The chosen innovation will determine if the firm would like to breakthrough the
market with a new product, service or redesign existing product or services. This paper is going to
analyze Alexander Mann Solution's innovative strategy in relation to the competition.
Types of innovation
Incremental and breakthrough innovation are two of the most commonly used innovation in the
RPO industry. Incremental innovation makes changes to the firm's already existing product or
service; breakthrough or disruptive innovation often disrupts the existing market with a new product
or service.
Breakthrough or disruptive innovation. According to Christensen, McDonald & Raynor (2015), a
disruptive innovation enters and disrupts an industry or a market. The new product or service
introduced is usually rejected by consumers, despite the low cost of the products or services. These

Gunpowder, compass, waterwheel, paper money, long–distance banking, the civil service and merit

argued that China was a famous nation with creative power at the ancient and modern times.
Nowadays, however, many opinions supposed that most of the creative business scholars and
innovators were in west countries (Abrami, Kirby and McFarlan, 2014), while breakthrough
innovations were rarely seen in China. There are some different viewpoints about the reasons why
China cannot innovate. Lim (cited in Abrami, Kirby and McFarlan, 2014) argued that Chinese
companies' managers do not have creativity to the consideration of new ideas. The Chinese
government fails to take good protection of intellectual property rights leads to this situation
similarly. Furthermore, according to Miyazaki (cited in Abrami, Kirby and McFarlan, 2014),

The market share in year 5 of the Lead User's products reached 68%, compared to 33%. Finally, the

Reasons
One of the reasons for its success is the following: Lead Users, who are invited to Lead User
Workshops, have needs that are ahead of the rest of the market. Rather than market research, which
focuses on the average users, Lead Users reveal what the majority of the market will demand in the
future – even before Early Adopters do. Then, they help during the workshop to readily develop
products that are perfectly suited to this future demand. When doing this, they are not biased by
functional fixedness, which leads to the strong tendancy to create new product lines instead of
incremental innovations.
All in all, the Lead User method represents the perfect recipe to create an incredibly profitable

"People are our greatest assets (Tidd, J. & Bessant, J., 2016, p107)." People, especially those who
have high knowledge and capabilities, are doubtless a fundamentally utmost resource in an

significantly different accomplishments (Christensen, C.M., & Overdorf, M.. 2000). This is not only
caused by some subtleties between the two firms, but also the working environment–in other words–
innovative culture.
While processing and managing innovation, the particular innovated spirits and substance of a
company, including innovated values, beliefs, norms, company's structure and working
environment, is fostered and advanced. According to Margaret Rouse (2015), innovative culture
cultivated by a company's leader "generally subscribe to the belief that innovation is not the
province of top leadership but can come from anyone in the organization."
For seeking a dominant position while competing among a market, both tangible forces–including
people, equipment, and technologies–and intangible forces–like product designs, brands, and
reputation–are required to a company. Innovative culture in these, is an intangible force. As it

61. Innovation And Its Impact On Innovation
Innovation brings changes, and for bringing desirable and appropriate changes, a clear
understanding of innovation is vital. A plethora of discourses indicates what innovation is, but it
remains fuzzy because of contextual biases and disparity (Crossan, M. M., and Apaydin, M., 2010).
The literature of innovation, on the other hand, refers to innovation as a category covering a wide
spectrum of issues that include a source of change (cause), a changing process, and a changed state
(effect), which appears ambiguous because the cause, effect and the process in–between cannot be
the same. Ambiguity in understanding innovation as a phenomenon makes the process of innovation
arduous and uncertain. As a result, innovation occurrences in business and social contexts as and
when required appear uncertain especially when the exigence for innovation at all levels of social
life has been heightened by many folds, especially to face the challenges of the 21st century.
This study, thus, intends to investigate innovation determining (a) the meaning of innovation
representing people's present beliefs and ideas, and (b) an easily adaptable and acceptable process of
innovation that can help people in general to be innovative. In this process, this study accentuates
human factors representing different personal constructs associated with the innovation process. The

It is important to evaluate any health informatics system since it operates in the complexity of a real
world system with a multitude of interactions between system and human. Human and
organizational concerns are crucial in the development and implementation of a new innovation in a
health care setup. (Kaplan, 2001). Overall satisfaction both individual and organizational in a
specific setting proves that a new innovation that has been introduced is helpful and effective in an
organization. (Ash et al, 2000). However, some argue that there are no exact or superior ways to
evaluate a system. Global evaluation depending on specific setting or site of implementation is
paramount in multi dimension approach to analyse this complex interaction between system, man
and organization.
Evaluation of information system in general can be divided into pre development stage of a system
known as formative or post development of an established system also known as summative. This is
considered a practical distinction before we start an information system evaluation process. Besides
the complexity and immaturity; whether it is a pre or post development stage evaluation, we should

, 1988). Saugstrup (2008) describes user involvement in the innovation process as innovations
developed by users or actively contributed to by users rather than innovations developed by
manufacturers.
Von Hippel (1988) divides the innovation process in four stages; need identification, research and
development (R&D), prototype building, and application and commercialization. He mentions that
the user is involved in the first three stages and that hereafter the manufacturer commercializes the
product. The schematic view of his perception is illustrated in figure 1.
Existing literature denominates the benefits and positive sides of user involvement (e.g von Hippel,

Secondly, by involving consumers in this stage of the innovative process, the businesses usually
realize that although all innovative ideas have something to offer, not all of them are good enough to

selecting only the ones that are worth implementing. Every idea has its own set of benefits that it
offers and a set of problem that comes with it. There is a certain monetary or brand image benefit
associated with each innovative idea. Balancing all these factors, a business can decide if an idea is

It is a very viable solution to develop a prototype and go to the consumer market to get feedback on
it. Once that is done, further experimentation can be done to finalize the prototype the best suitable
for the consumer needs. By going through the process of experimentation, the organizations like
Whatsapp decide if a particular idea is suitable for them at a particular point in time or not (Muzrahi,
2014). Another suitable example here would be M16 rifle used in Vietnam War. The earlier version
AR–15 was reliable, while the M16 advanced version was not. The additional features added to it
were not as suitable for the situation as the original version. Due to lack of experimentation and
involvement of the end users in providing feedback about the product, it was an innovation that did
not work well for the makers. Moreover, the IDEO example could also explain the fact that creating
a prototype to get consumer feedback is very important for the innovation idea to be successful
(Scarbrough 2017).
Thirdly, Commercialization is mainly about the sales volume and the marketing of the product
through the collaboration of individuals with different expertise. Indeed, from a business point of
view, an idea would be suitable if it generates a return on investment. Therefore, at this stage,
consumer involvement in the innovation process becomes unnecessary. If an idea cannot be

Analysis of Intuit and Organizational Change This paper will follow a case study regarding the
company Intuit, called Conspiracy of Change at Intuit. Intuit was a successful software company
that enjoyed an 80 percent market share in each of its three product lines; it was one of the few
companies still left that directly competed with Microsoft and still emerged on top (Jick & Peiperl,
2003, p.5). However with the increasing popularity of the internet it recognized that it needed to
innovate in order to still remain relevant, "avoiding a downward spiral meant facing up to the Net,
which had huge implications for Intuit's strategy" (Jick et al., 2003, p.6). They decided to embrace
this new technology and change the way the company ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

cultural change within an organization is the final phase in re–energizing the mature organization
(p.56). This holds true for Intuit as well, when they first started off they "were suffering a corporate
midlife crisis" and needed to change as a whole in order to still remain competitive (Jick et al., 2003,
p.6).This process can be very "traumatic" for an organization; through the process of change Intuit's
employees were faced with a lack of strategic mission. However, Beatty et al. (2003) stated that
after the change occurs the company will have a renewed since of commitment that will be the
catalyst for more positive change (p.56). However, in keeping with the principles outlined in Re–
Energizing the Mature Organization, they were able to empower their employees from various
backgrounds to come together in the QuickenMorgtage project. They had a "grass–roots approach to
strategy making that drew on Intuit staffers from a variety of backgrounds, function and hierarchical
positions" (Jick et al., 2003, p.8). This is a precursor to changing the culture of an organization.
