BIF Research Advisor John Wolpert's Top Three Innovation Books

john wolpert.gifDuring the course of a recent conversation, BIF research advisor John Wolpert offered his top three innovation books of all time:

1. Open Innovation by Henry Chesbrough
2. Radical Innovation by by Richard Leifer, Christopher M. McDermott, Gina Colarelli O'Connor, and Lois S. Peters

and, probably most intriguing:

3. Orbiting the Giant Hairball by Gordon MacKenzie. John calls it a "beautiful little book on innovation." Written by a Hallmark Cards executive, Orbiting the Giant Hairball is a first-person account of the continual tension between creativity and corporate inertia.
