The Innovator’s Dilemma: When New Technologies Cause Great Firms to Fail by Clayton M. Christensen

Authors’ big thought: The author explores why well-managed companies fail, suggesting that the very management practices that lead to industry leadership also hinder the development of disruptive technologies, which can ultimately overtake their markets.

Well-managed companies excel at developing sustaining technologies that enhance product performance in ways that matter to their customers. This book delves into the processes by which disruptive technologies replace older ones and the strong internal forces within well-managed companies that make it difficult for them to innovate disruptively.

Christensen offers insights into how managers can leverage the four Principles of Disruptive Technology to enable their companies to develop new technologies that will capture future markets.
