{"product_id":"teaming-to-innovate-isbn-9781118856277","title":"Teaming to Innovate","description":"Innovation requires teaming. (Put another way, teaming is to innovation what assembly lines are to car production.) This book brings together key insights on teaming, as they pertain to innovation. How do you build a culture of innovation? What does that culture look like? How does it evolve and grow? How are teams most effectively created and then nurtured in this context? What is a leader's role in this culture? This little book is a roadmap for teaming to innovate. We describe five necessary steps along that road: Aim High, Team Up, Fail Well, Learn Fast, and Repeat. This path is not smooth. To illustrate each critical step, we look at real-life scenarios that show how teaming to innovate provides the spark that can fertilize creativity, clarify goals, and redefine the meaning of leadership.  \u003cb\u003eExecutive Summary 1\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction 3\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat It Takes to Innovate 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSituating Innovation on the Process Knowledge Spectrum 12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA Recipe for Innovation 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAim High 26\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA Worthy Goal 27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEngaging Hearts and Minds 34\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt’s a Stretch 44\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorthy Aspirations That Motivate Innovation 47\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTeam Up 48\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eStrange Bedfellows 49\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTeaming Across Boundaries 54\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat It Takes to Team 60\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhen Conflict Heats Up 67\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmbracing the Risks of Teaming 74\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFail Well 76\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnpacking Failure 77\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFailing Well—At the Right Scale 88\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLeading Failure 90\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCourage and Fear 94\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLearn Fast 96\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLearning as You Go 97\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHow to Learn Fast 99\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOvercoming Barriers to Learning 104\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLeading Learning to Innovate 113\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eConclusion 115\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRecommendations for a Successful Innovation Journey 116\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLeaders Who Innovate 119\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotes 123\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author 129\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cb\u003eAmy Edmondson\u003c\/b\u003e is the Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management at the Harvard Business School, where she teaches courses in leadership, organizational learning and operations management in the MBA and Executive Education programs.
