BNET bloggers Sterling Performance have an interview with C.K. Prahalad, Innovate by Numbers. In it they talk about the concepts in his recent book, “The New Age of Innovation,” which they call “as much a practical manual as a manifesto of change.”
They have a concise discussion of why Prahalad is a prominent management thinker, and two of his core ideas, co-creation (which he calls N+1) and global resourcing (which he calls R=G).
For a different medium on the same book — here is the first of two video clips of him talking about his ideas with Business Week. In the second, he makes the interesting statement that in his theories, “we’re almost asking people to run a marathon 400 meters at a time.” He also attacks what he calls “the illusion that we don’t have time to step back.”
More when Sterling Performance posts part two of its interview.
