Innovation Principles and Practices

Tuesday, March 17
9:30AM - 10:30AM

JW Marriott
Salon C
110 E 2nd St

Iap31563

Rapid innovation lessons from the US military and NASA, based on my book FIRE (How Fast, Inexpensive, Restrained, and Elegant Methods Ignite Innovation - HarperBusiness, 2014). The book blends pop-culture and history with engineering insight and delivers funny, practical guidance to help innovators deliver best-in-class capabilities using minimal resources.

This core conversation will use stories about advanced tech development projects to introduce a set of practices and tools that foster high-speed, low-cost innovation. Particular emphasis will be placed on the nature and role of simplicity in organizational and technical design.
