*updated with new material* 'Digital transformation' and
'disruptive innovation' used to be empty buzzwords serving to
justify pointless box-ticking and absurd corporate posturing. And
then a global pandemic suddenly forced every kind of organization
to embrace genuine, urgent innovation as a matter of survival. But
how can we ensure that the non-bullshit version of innovation
delivers economic recovery at this crucial moment? Are there
strategies we can all adapt from the world's most creative leaders
to innovate effectively in our own lives? David Rowan, founding
editor-in-chief of WIRED UK, embarked on a twenty country quest to
find out. Packed full of tips for anyone looking for radical ways
to adapt and thrive in the digital age, this carefully curated
selection of stories will prepare you for whatever the future may
bring - because the world will never move this slowly again.
___________________________ 'In this remarkable book, David Rowan
tells a story of transformation: how an organisation has found a
new way of doing things through innovation driven by ruthless
entrepreneurial imagination. What is especially useful is that he
does not just stick with small startups, let alone dreamy
"inventors". He finds innovation in big companies and even within
governments.' - Matt Ridley, The Times
Alexandra Rowan earned a double major degree in creative writing
and communications. Shortly after her graduation in 2013 she died
suddenly and without warning because of her use of hormone-based
birth control. This book is a testament to her life, written by her
father, David. My Beautiful Memory examines her life and death, and
describes the difficult journey that her parents had to undertake
following their loss. It concludes with an examination of the US
drug industry's influence over the regulation of these drugs that
kill over one thousand women each year. Alexandra was a young woman
with a love of many things, but her chief passion was writing.
Latter parts of the book are written in her own words.
