Disrupt Yourself™: Putting the Power of Disruptive Innovation to Work
Disruptive companies and ideas upend markets by doing something truly different—they see a need and create something for a market which may not yet exist. After co-founding the Disruptive Innovation Fund with Harvard’s Clayton Christensen, I discovered that the framework of disruption can also be applied to individuals. So, if you are… a high potential individual ready to make a big career leap a leader trying to jumpstart innovative thinking in your company, or a self-starter ready to make a disruptive pivot in your business We are living in an era of accelerating disruption—managing new learning curves is a vital skill. If you want to be successful in unexpected ways, I’ll guide you down your own disruptive path.
