Innovating through Recession: When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Innovate

"Moments of economic turbulence provide the unique opportunity to start new businesses, launch disruptive new products, and strengthen customer loyalty – often at a discount. During these challenging times, here are a few pointers on what to do, why to do it, and what to avoid. But first, a little motivation is in order and, rather than quote Charles Dickens, I offer you a tribute to organizations who have successfully innovated through the 'worst of times.' When the going gets tough, the tough
innovate. Here’s how."

Dealing with Darwin: How Great Companies Innovate at Every Phase of Their Evolution

"This is an important book for senior new product development professionals because of its focus on innovation strategy. For those who see innovation as the fuzzy front end of development this book goes a long way toward demystifying it.
It defines and explores 12 types of innovation: four types of new category innovation, four types of mature market customer experience innovation, and four types of mature market operational innovation. This broad focus makes it valuable for
anyone involved in portfolio management, providing a useful framework for prioritizing innovation investment. Dealing with Darwin is decidedly a strategy book and is aimed at senior executives who set the innovation agenda for their businesses. In fact, its biggest contribution could be providing a compelling case and framework for the
chief executive officer to set a highly focused and strategic course for innovation."
