Do not bother reading this book if you are happy with your work as it is

March 9, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Do not bother reading this book if you are happy with your work as it is, or if you have no fear of an innovative competitor. Do not bother if you are unafraid of technology warping your current business model or if there is no competitive threat in along your horizon.

Extreme Innovation is for the rest of us.

Extreme Innovation is merely for any business thinker wishing to survive the speed of change being driven by technology and other factors. It is well-written and gives you both global perspective and real-time pragmatic ideas. I particularly like her thoughts on diversity for business success. She looks beyond inclusive of races and genders into diversity of perspective and thought. She interviews people that I consider to be true thought leaders because the blaze trails that others follow and find business success along the way.

It's worth the Money! Well Researched and inclusive!

March 10, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I teach innovation in a local community and I read every book I can get my kindle on about the subject. This book is fresh with ideas especially around mentoring as a culture that produces innovation. In addition, I am over 50 and I fully support the idea of having mixed teams and the benefits that they bring. While Sandy discusses the power of the millennials, she didn't leave us out of the book. I loved the fact that 1 of 3 new startups are founded by those over 50. We need to bring the discussion of diversity to business outcomes like Sandy did with her factoids on ROI, and greater innovation with increased profit. But we need to start focusing on the full population ... returners, those over 50 , and millennials. The only thing I wish that she had done is to have a few more examples highlighting those over 50 with super innovative businesses. Keep the books coming Sandy!

Inspirational. Sandy Carter packs years of executive mentorship into "Extreme Innovation"

April 5, 2017

This easy to read book provides the tried and true formula for innovation at warp speed. Technology is changing fast and the prize goes to those who lead with Super Intelligence, Super Speed and Super Synergy. Learn where the puck will be and how to get there first with Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality, Internet of Things and Blockchain. My favorite part is all about Cognitive Diversity and the proven financial and cultural gains that are achieved with teams that include diverse thinkers regardless of age, gender, race or nationality. Sandy is a champion for start-ups and women in technology. Her experience at Big Blue as CMO and Sales Leader gives us an inside look at extreme innovation.

5 THUMBS UP: New and Fresh Thoughts on Innovation with usable Frameworks, and Case Studies

March 8, 2017

Format: Paperback

I was given an advance copy of Sandy Carter's book Extreme Innovation. I was a bit skeptical as I have read dozens of innovation books in the past. What impressed me about this book was its frameworks and newness of thought. I know about technology but the use cases of using AI and VR to drive innovation in a company was fresh. The timing on her concept of diverse teams and inclusion was fact based-- especially with case studies like Clorox -- showcased the value of the team, the culture and, as Sandy coined the phrase, "cognitive diversity" with a real business outcome -- innovation and ROI. Finally, the concept of ecosystems being part of the innovation fabric was an interesting twist -- given examples of Tesla with its charging stations, and fashion tech like 360 Fashion with its new approach -- that was beyond just tech buzzwords but industry wide applicability. The book is a fast read but my copy is now marked up with highlighter. I am glad she asked me to review this piece of innovative thought!

This book will not collect dust on your shelf! MUST-read!

March 8, 2017

Format: Paperback

My upfront disclosure is that I know the author personally and professionally, we've worked together and I am a contributor to the book. I am biased because I adore this incredible woman and I've seen her move mountains, organizations, and teams of people. This is a person who walks their talk. If anyone would write a book on innovation, it should be Sandy Carter. As a futurist and someone who keynotes internationally on transformation, I cannot recommend her book highly enough. If you run an organization or are an entrepreneur looking to be cutting edge in a time when all bets are off, everything is constantly in flux, and overwhelm is the new norm...this book is a must-read for you.

A must read. I am a Founder and ex Corporate leader-- Loved how the book brings value to both!

March 10, 2017

Format: Paperback

Innovation is the soul of every company. I am an entrepreneur and innovator and have been running businesses for all of my life. This book brought new ideas to my business and team. I will be ordering a few for my team and those I mentor. Startups need to read this on how to partner with big companies to innovate and grow (this is what I did for my businesses). And big business needs to read this on how to start partnerships and intrapreneurship programs. The book is a fast read and will be a book I save for reference.
