"Sharpen The Saw"

Read my detailed article on Stephen Covey's Sharpen the Saw Principle

Knowledge is the saw with which knowledge workers solve the complex problems that come to them for decision making, design and development of products, services and systems.

This collection of articles facilitate review of knowledge gained in the MBA course. The core curriculum of the course is being covered in this blog. For specialization streams separate blogs will be opened.

"Sharpen the Saw" said Covey in The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. Knowledge workers have to keep their knowledge fresh always as 'quick recall knowledge' and 'quick assisted recall knowledge' to do their job right as knowledge workers. This can be ensured by periodic review or revision of the knowledge learned during the education years. Articles in the blog are prepared using reputed and popular textbooks on various subjects. Readers can read one or two articles per day and keep their knowledge sharp. The articles also help persons now pursuing their MBA to grasp the main ideas presented in a chapter.

Innovation Management - Research, Development, Design and Commercialization

What is innovation management?

Innovation management is the process of taking innovative ideas from their inception to implementation.

There are, generally, a few steps to innovation management:

Step one: topic ideation and generation

Arguably the most important stage — which we’ll get into a little more later — is turning a workspace into an innovation ecosystem. Any organization that encourages employees to think creatively, work on passion projects, and collaborate with coworkers is going to find they have a competitive advantage

HOW TO APPLY LEAN THINKING IN INNOVATION, PRODUCT AND SERVICE DEVELOPMENT
Matti Perttula

Lean production seeks to increase flow (not resource) efficiency by reducing waste. Flow efficiency is calculated by dividing added value time with total time. The usual situation is that companies focus on resource efficiency rather than flow efficiency of a certain project.

Flow efficiency is typically lower in R&D compared to production.
