Opportunity and Threat of Disruptive Technologies Faculty Seminar Video with slides (60mins) Author(s): Clayton M. Christensen
Go "inside the classroom" to hear Harvard Business School Professor Clayton Christensen describe how seemingly benign innovations often disrupt entire industries and why industry leaders consistently lose out to the upstarts--even when the disruptive innovations come from the leaders' own labs. Learn how and why these destructive patterns occur and how an organization's resources, processes, and values influence its ability to respond. Christensen lays out a framework for diagnosing an organization's capabilities and suggests ways that large companies can capitalize on opportunities that normally would not fit in with their processes or values. Detailed slides, a learning guide, and an additional Harvard Business Review article, Meeting the Challenge of Disruptive Change, are included.

Innovation's Solution by Clay Christensen
 By doing what good companies were supposed to do--focus on pleasing their most profitable customers--leaders were paving the way for their own demise. How?

Seeing What's Next by Clay Christensen
 Based on proven theories outlined in Christensen's landmark books, "The Innovator's Dilemma" and "The Innovator's Solution", "Seeing What's Next" offers a practical, three-part model that helps decision-makers spot the signals of industry change, determine the outcome of competitive battles, and assess whether a firm's actions will ensure or threaten future success. Through in-depth case studies of industries from aviation to health care, the authors illustrate the predictive power of innovation theory in action.
