Innovation has always been with us: it is one of the main motors of economic development and progress. However, it has taken a long time for it to emerge as one of the central subjects of business activity and theory.
The authors began Game Changers as a way to survey innovation from a wide variety of times, places, and technologies to see what they could learn about innovation from this broad perspective. As a result, they reviewed novel developments in products, services, and most significantly, approaches about how to get jobs done.
