Innovation is a major directive at companies worldwide. Everyone wants to know how to get more out of their efforts, to make good ideas cost less and last longer. But in these tough timesand as the global business landscape becomes increasingly complex and diverse we cant rely on the old formula that has sustained innovation efforts for decades: a mix of top-down policies, expensive RMittiCool, an affordable fridge made entirely of clay that consumes no electricity, is 100% biodegradable, and produces zero waste during its lifetime. Or Dr Sathya Jeganathan, a pediatrician in a rural hospital in southern India who teamed up with neonatal nurses and local electricians to develop a low-cost incubator that uses standard 100-watt light bulbs and is built with locally harvested wood. The minimalist design and easy-to-maintain device has cut infant mortality at her hospital in half.

Rezensionen
"Jugaad Innovation goes farther than conventional business books that chart consumer growth in Brazil, Russia, India, and China. It explains how emerging economies are pioneering the art of 'frugal engineering,' then provides practical tips on how Western companies--from tech startups to multinational industrial corporations--can likewise do more with less. A provocative and entertaining read for 21st century business leaders."
--Carlos Ghosn, CEO, Renault-Nissan

"The authors have it right: highly structured innovation processes can't deliver all the breakthroughs required by today's 'speed of business.' What's called for are new practices that work with--not against--the forces that drive our hypercompetitive world. Jugaad Innovation lays out the new principles that you--and every forward-thinking leader in your company--need right now."
--Charlene Li, founder, Altimeter Group; bestselling author, Open Leadership

"Businesses must move away from the top-down organizational hierarchies that have defined the past and transform themselves into social enterprises built on bottom-up, agile models based on collaboration. Jugaad Innovation shows how you can enable your entire ecosystem--employees, customers, and partners--to make significant contributions and drive hypergrowth. An important book for anyone who wants to compete in the future."
--Marc Benioff, chairman and CEO, salesforce.com; bestselling author, Behind the Cloud

"CEOs tend to manage innovation like an orchestra conductor--with a traditional, hierarchical, and prescriptive approach. Jugaad Innovation shows how to innovate like a jazz band--with improvisation, creativity, and agility. Both styles are necessary on today's global stage."
--Doreen Lorenzo, president, frog

"We are entering an age when humanity's grand challenges are being solved by a new generation of 'do-it-yourself' innovators employing jugaad-style thinking. Today the entrepreneurial spirit of your very own employees, customers, and partners--empowered by new technologies--can literally change the world. X PRIZE has proven the value of jugaad by leveraging this bottom-up approach of 'better, faster, cheaper' to the point of sending a man into space for a fraction of what NASA spends. This compelling new book, Jugaad Innovation, articulates how you can start to accomplish amazing things on a shoestring. It is a vital read."
--Peter H. Diamandis, founder and chairman, X PRIZE Foundation

"Jugaad Innovation throws cold water in the faces of CEOs, reminding them of the immense power of grassroots, do-it-yourself, cheap, quick, simple innovation. This is one of the most important lessons that emerging markets are teaching the West."
--George F. Colony, CEO, Forrester Research

"I've long argued that the role of business is to make the world a better place. In the new economy, this requires true innovation--bold ideas, gutsy people, and extraordinary actions. Need a new roadmap? Fresh inspiration? Accessible tools? It's all in this remarkable book, Jugaad Innovation. Get a copy for yourself and every member of your team today."
--Kevin Roberts, CEO worldwide, Saatchi &Saatchi; bestselling author, LoveMarks…mehr
