      Summary of The Game-Changer (A.G. Lafley and Ram Charan)

      Book Abstract

      Main Idea

      Innovation can change the game of business your company is forced to play. New products and services can lead to new customers which drive revenue growth and ultimately profits. For innovation to have a payoff, however, it must be integrated into how you run your business rather than treated as a standalone activity. There are in fact eight elements of any business which must be organized in order for innovation to work.

      Get all eight of these elements to work together and innovation will generate solid organic growth and provide some very worthwhile differentiation for your firm. Fail to get these eight elements in place and innovation simply will not happen.

      An innovation is the conversion of a new idea into revenues and profits. Real innovation can change the context – the market space, the competitive space, the societal space – in which a business operates. Game-changing leaders search for and execute ideas that put the company on a long-term path to prosperity. ‘Innovate or die’ is truly the name of the game.
