I was talking to a small group of MBA students recently and asked if any had heard of Gary Hamel. It was also a surprise because Gary Hamel seems like the kind of guru that would be mentioned a lot during an MBA program - he is an academic, an author, and a top speaker. Hamel, Peters, Kotter, Bennis, etc. Hip hop AND Hamel.

Gary Hamel, The Future of Management What limits innovation in established companies isn’t a lack of resources or a shortage of human creativity, but dearth of pro- innovation processes. Every business is successful until it’s not. What’s disconcerting, though, is how often top management is surprised when “not” happens.
