Innovation to the Core: A Blueprint for Transforming the Way Your Company Innovates11 reviews
Peter Skarzynski, Rowan Gibson
Harvard Business School Press, 2008
Innovative thinking about innovative thinking
I am among those who agree with Michael Porter that "the essence of strategy is choosing what not to do" and with Peter Drucker that "there is surely nothing quite so useless as doing with great efficiency what should not be done at all." These two observations are directly relevant to the material that Peter Skarzynski and Rowan Gibson present as they respond brilliantly to questions such as ...

As a new home owner and novice gardener, I was overwhelmed by my overgrown 1/3 acre yard. It has beautiful bones, but has not been well-tended in many, many years.

What sets this book apart
I really enjoyed this book... I have read many other "how to achieve your goals" books, however, what sets this book apart is that each step / chapter comes with a real life story and examples... in addition, each step / chapter comes with a worksheet to guide you through the process. After reading "Keep Any Promise" and following the steps / worksheets for the past year... I have achieved many ...

Social Change 2.0: A Blueprint for Reinventing Our World8 reviews
David Gershon
High Point/Chelsea Green, 2009
Undeniable Genius Isolated from Other Movements
This book is a work of undeniable genius and to that I would add perseverence--the author and his wife Gail Straub have been on the forefront of the personal empowerment movement from the late 1970's onward, and in many ways this book is a capstone work that bridges from the personal to the neighborhood and aspires to--but does not quite attain--the goal of being globally meaningful. I ...

Excellent resource - but use with caution
I purchased this book with it was first published and it greatly influenced my thinking and has continued to do so to this day. There is a large caveat I want to share before continuing - be careful of the Zachman Framework because if you do base your enterprise architecture on it you will soon discover that making changes is a tedious process that ripples across the matrix. That said, I ...
