This book is about consistent sustainable innovation on demand". - Mr. Shekar Arora, Executive Director, HR Ashok Leyland "I really like the use of the fast and furious 'Kalari tool', based on the ancient warrior art of India. The use of Indian concepts like the Nava rasa are fascinating. The Tent vs Marble place thinking, is a great metaphor" - Pandia Rajan K, CEO, Ma Foi Ranstad (India and Srilanka) 'Practise the steps outlined in Innovate! for 90 days and become an innovation star.'
