Innovation Engineering is a practical guide to creating anything new - whether in a large firm, research lab, new venture or even in an innovative student project. The reality is that talented teams with logical plans often fail. The challenge in developing any new technology application or venture is that the innovator must be able to "execute while also learning". Innovation Engineering, developed and used at UC Berkeley, provides the tactical process, leadership approach, and behaviors necessary for successful innovation. Teams use Innovation Engineering to learn innovation behaviors. These teams additionally accomplish their innovative projects approximately 2X-4X faster than and with higher quality results. They also on-board new team members faster, they have much fewer unnecessary meetings, and they even report a more positive outlook on the project itself. Inter-woven between the chapters are real-life case studies with some of the world's most successful innovators. Highly applied, and very realistic, Innovation Engineering builds on years of technology innovation projects within large firms, advanced development labs, and new ventures at UC Berkeley, in Silicon Valley, and globally. If your goal is to create something new and have it successfully used in real life, this book is for you.
