BIF Research Advisor John Wolpert's Top Three Innovation Books

During the course of a recent conversation, BIF research advisor John Wolpert offered his top three innovation books of all time: Open Innovation by Henry Chesbrough, Radical Innovation by by Richard Leifer, Christopher M. McDermott, Gina Colarelli O'Connor, and Lois S. Peters and, probably most intriguing 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.
