The Innovators: Rediscovering America's Creative Energy, 10. kötet

The authors argue that innovators not only make new products, but also create new production processes and new management styles, revamp organizations, and reshape government and educational systems. They portray the picture of an emerging America and propose a national design for economic success focusing on education, research and development; the adaptation of high technology to old industry; the finding of qualified leaders; and the cooperation of labor, management and all levels of government to achieve these goals. They offer case studies of three American companies undergoing rapid transformation, profiles of three states -- Massachusetts, Michigan and Mississippi -- in different stages of economic transition, descriptions of Carnegie-Mellon University and Worcester Polytechnic Institute, and of the condition in Asia.
