内容简介
······

Most companies today have innovation envy. They yearn to come up with a game-changing innovation like Apple's iPod, or create an entirely new category like Facebook. Many make genuine efforts to be innovative-they spend on R&D, bring in creative designers, hire innovation consultants. But they get disappointing results.

Why? In The Design of Business, Roger Martin offers a compelling and provocative answer: we rely far too exclusively on analytical thinking, which merely refines current knowledge, producing small improvements to the status quo.

To innovate and win, companies need design thinking. This form of thinking is rooted in how knowledge advances from one stage to another-from mystery (something we can't explain) to heuristic (a rule of thumb that guides us toward solution) to algorithm (a predictable formula for producing an answer) to code (when the formula becomes so predictable it can be fully automated). As knowledge advances across the stages, productivity grows and costs drop-creating massive value for companies.

Martin shows how leading companies such as Procter & Gamble, Cirque du Soleil, RIM, and others use design thinking to push knowledge through the stages in ways that produce breakthrough innovations and competitive advantage.

Filled with deep insights and fresh perspectives, The Design of Business reveals the true foundation of successful, profitable innovation.

评论 ······

作者提出了一种全新的思维模式,平衡可靠性(分析思维)与有效性(直觉思维),实现两种观点的融合即设计思维。实际上我认为意思就是把艺术与科学两种东西互相糅杂到一起,形成了“设计”这个东西,即有吸取经验转而成为程序的东西在,又有灵光乍现的创新在。从组织、领导者到“我”,以诸多案例深入描述如何进行融合与解决实际问题。

纵然啰嗦,关于 validity 和 reliability 的论述仍然十分,十分,十分地精彩!

这是研究生时期的必读书目,毕业之后一年又再一次拿起来精读。我身处设计学院,身边全都是艺术生和设计生,深深感觉到这本书说的一切在设计环境下的不适用,设计学院里或者设计生里我们已经validity-seeking的本性已经根植在我们的学习和工作中,我们去做很多事情的时候很少考虑它的合理性,而更多是它是否有创意有趣。我再读的这本书的时候发现坐着的语境是在追求稳妥发展,格式化制度化的商业环境中,需要注入a…
