Are Competitor's Innovations Creatively Destroying Your Business? Innovation is the buzz word of most industries today especially in industries that are classified as technology driven. In fact, to thrive in some industries, a company must live or die by thinking and being innovative. With all of the rhetoric now about innovation, do most people you talk to about innovation give you a definitive answer about what innovation is and how you go about doing it? Or, is it kind of like being happy? Innovation is happiness and it means something different to everyone? Well, there is some very interesting discussion about what innovation is and what it is not.
