Best Practices Are Stupid: 40 Ways to Out-Innovate the Competition (Hardcover)
By Stephen M. Shapiro

Review & Description

A concise manual for starting and nurturing a culture of innovation in any organization.

Innovation isn't just about generating new ideas; it's about staying one step ahead of the competition.

Expert Stephen Shapiro shows managers and employees how to reach their full potential, offering seventy-five tested strategies for boosting innovation in any workplace. They include:

• Hire people you don't like. Bring in the right mix of people and unleash your team's potential
• Stop recognizing people for doing their job. That only leads to "more of the same." Instead, recognize people for challenging the status quo
• Define the challenge more clearly. If you ask better questions, you will get better answers
• Don't ask people to think outside the box. Instead, give employees a better box: well-defined challenges that will guide their efforts

This book will help any organization make innovation a repeatable, sustainable process at the heart of the company's culture.
