Список книг автора Clayton M. ChristensenDilema de los innovadores (Nueva edición)
El dilema de los innovadores presenta una serie de principios para lograr capitalizar el fenómeno de la innovación disruptiva. Estos principios ayudarán a los managers a determinar en qué ocasiones resulta más adecuado no escuchar a sus clientes y cuándo invertir en el desarrollo de productos de escaso rendimiento que proporcionen inicialmente márgenes reducidos. Es imposible no apreciar la huella de Christensen en el éxito de empresas como Uber o Netflix, y representa a su vez una suerte de biblia para muchos de los ejecutivos y emprendedores de Silicon Valley. Era el único libro sobre negocios que Steve Jobs tenía en su biblioteca y recomendaba leer. Reed Hastings, fundador de Netflix, utilizó los preceptos del libro de Christensen con su equipo. Jeff Bezos, fundador de Amazon, insta siempre a sus ejecutivos a leer El dilema de los innovadores y su secuela, La solución del innovador, también publicada por Granica. El fundador de Intel, Andy Grove, dijo en 1997 que este libro era el más importante que había leído en diez años. La revista The Economist lo señaló como uno de los seis mejores libros de management jamás escritos.
Resumen del libro "El ADN del innovador"
La innovación es la savia de nuestra economía global y una prioridad estratégica para casi todos los directivos de las empresas. El poder de las ideas innovadoras para revolucionar la industria y generar riqueza ha sido una constante en la economía: el iPod de Apple; el Walkman de Sony, el café y la atmósfera de los Starbucks que han desbancado las cafeterías tradicionales; el Skype que utiliza la estrategia «es gratis» para derrocar a compañías como AT&T, etc. En todos estos casos, las ideas creativas de empresarios innovadores generaron poderosas ventajas competitivas y una tremenda riqueza para la compañía pionera. La pregunta del millón es la siguiente: ¿cómo lo hicieron? Y la pregunta de los diez millones: ¿cómo podríamos hacerlo nosotros? El ADN del innovador es el libro que aborda estas cuestiones fundamentales y otras muchas. Es el resultado de un estudio conjunto que realizaron sus autores durante ocho años y que nos brinda una mayor comprensión sobre los innovadores disruptivos, quiénes son y el tipo de compañías que crean. Sus historias son a la vez seductoras e intuitivas, y sorprendentemente similares. De ellas emergen sistemáticamente los mismos patrones de actuación. Los empresarios y directivos innovadores se comportan de un modo similar cuando descubren ideas pioneras. Todos cuentan con cinco habilidades fundamentales que componen lo que los autores llaman «el ADN del innovador».

Seeing What's Next
Every day, individuals take action based on how they believe innovation will change industries.

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.
