{"product_id":"2940150988347","title":"Robert's Rules of Innovation II: The Art of Implementation","description":"Do you know anyone who still takes a tight-fisted approach to R\u0026amp;D and innovation, as if they were still in the roiling financial tumult of 2008? If yes, could that someone be you?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Robert's Rules of Innovation II: The Art of Implementation, innovation thought-leader Robert Brands introduces readers to the best and most recent thinking of his international network and shows how to permanently implement a culture of Innovation in one's work environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrands has led innovation-driven companies around the world, and his global network of business leaders comes from different cultures, speaks different languages, and are experts across a variety of industries. On these pages, these international experts share their passion for innovation and the Art of Implementation and provide hands-on tips in an informative and entertaining manner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn his first book, also written with author Martin Kleinman, Brands delineated decades' worth of collective invaluable experience. Robert's Rules of Innovation®--much like Robert's Rules of Order that create order from chaos in meetings around the world--helped business leaders understand the principles needed to create, nurture, and profit from a stable New Product Development (NPD) program.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith The Art of Implementation, readers will quickly revisit the 10 key rules of Innovation and then dive head first into practical techniques to break down the barriers to innovation, whether they are self-imposed or due to external or marketplace reasons. And, as with his first book, The Art of Implementation delivers a hands-on, understandable, and practical approach to making innovation part of every outfit's DNA.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe worst of the Great Recession is long over. There are no more excuses, no more reasons to postpone, de-fund, ignore, or otherwise hobble your new product development programs. Whether you manage a multinational or an entrepreneurial start-up, whether you are a manufacturer, distributor, service provider, supplier or retailer, the competitive pressures today – in terms of time, budget, everything -- are unprecedented.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is no time to waste.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReady to unleash your team's abilities? Eager to make sure your culture of innovation is properly implemented, poised to create profitable new products and position your company for long-term success?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWelcome, then, to Robert's Rules of Innovation® II: The Art of Implementation.","brand":"Bascom Hill Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47102204444912,"sku":"2940150988347","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940150988347_p0.jpg?v=1763757437","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940150988347","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
