There isn't a business in America that doesn't want to be more creative in its thinking, products, and processes. At many companies, being first with a concept and first to market are critical just to survive. In The Art of Innovation , Tom Kelley, general manager of the Silicon Valley based design firm IDEO, takes readers behind the scenes of this wildly imaginative and energized company to reveal the strategies and secrets it uses to turn out hit after hit. IDEO doesn't buy into the myth of the lone genius working away in isolation, waiting for great ideas to strike. Kelley believes everyone can be creative, and the goal at his firm is to tap into that wellspring of creativity in order to make innovation a way of life. How does it do that? IDEO fosters an atmosphere conducive to freely expressing ideas, breaking the rules, and freeing people to design their own work environments. IDEO's focus on teamwork generates countless breakthroughs, fueled by the constant give-and-take among people ready to share ideas and reap the benefits of the group process. IDEO has created an intense, quick-turnaround, brainstorm-and-build process dubbed "the Deep Dive." In entertaining anecdotes, Kelley illustrates some of his firm's own successes (and joyful failures), as well as pioneering efforts at other leading companies. The book reveals how teams research and immerse themselves in every possible aspect of a new product or service, examining it from the perspective of clients, consumers, and other critical audiences. Kelley takes the reader through the IDEO problem-solving method: >Carefully observing the behavior or "anthropology" of the people who will be using a product or service >Brainstorming with high-energy sessions focused on tangible results >Quickly prototyping ideas and designs at every step of the way >Cross-pollinating to find solutions from other fields >Taking risks, and failing your way to success >Building a "Greenhouse" for innovation IDEO has won more awards in the last ten years than any other firm of its kind, and a full half-hour Nightline presentation of its creative process received one of the show's highest ratings. The Art of Innovation will provide business leaders with the insights and tools they need to make their companies the leading-edge, top-rated stars of their industries. Review: Thought provoking - Interesting text Review: A compelling read! - This is a little gem of a book for anyone interested in innovation. It focuses on the work of IDEO (one of the most renowned and innovative design companies in the world) and provides an endless number of insights and anecdotal information (although some of the technology examples are starting to look a little dated now. If you are looking for a book that provides academic insights into the innovation process, this is not for you. If you are looking for a practical and pragmatic approach to innovation, then carry on reading. Having read the book from cover to cover, I suspect it is the sort of book you could re-read time and time again and glean something new from it every time. As well as providing an insight into the inner workings of IDEO, it covers the cross-over between design and innovation. This is an important aspect of innovation and something that is often overlooked. A great read. Highly recommended. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #367,509 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #869 in Business Management & Leadership #3,997 in Business & Investing Skills | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (304) | | Dimensions | 16.76 x 2.79 x 24.18 cm | | Edition | Hardcover Edition | | ISBN-10 | 0385499841 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0385499842 | | Item weight | 748 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 307 pages | | Publication date | 16 January 2001 | | Publisher | Crown Currency | ## Images ![The Art of Innovation - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61rLTllMsWL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thought provoking *by T***A on 21 June 2019* Interesting text ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A compelling read! *by S***E on 24 August 2008* This is a little gem of a book for anyone interested in innovation.
