    Of all the aspects of MTI, innovation strategy is the most challenging. Firms can be very good at the various activities involved in MTI, such as R & D or operations, but this count for little unless it is supported by a well-grounded innovation strategy that guides firms’ choices, prioritizations, and sequences. There is little value in being highly efficient at developing or delivering new products and services if they are the wrong products and services for the firm and its markets. Well-chosen new products and services deliver value, build the technological base of the firm, develop its capabilities, improve its processes, and add to its reputation and brands. An innovation strategy helps firms decide, in a cumulative and sustainable manner, about the type of innovation that best match corporate objectives. The following information is used to determine when, where, how, if and what innovations to be used in business. Also we will discuss the areas of sustainability, CSR, and ethics within an organization.…

    The Paradox Of Choice: The Ice Arena Manager

    Since I was a child I have frequently dabbled in both business engagements and engineering projects. I still remember the middle school days when I used my emergent marketing skills to help launch my brother’s computer assembly business. Researcher Barry Schwartz in his book “The Paradox of Choice - Why More Is Less” argues that having too many choices makes buyers less likely to purchase. So we introduced just an ‘office computer’, a ‘gaming computer’ and a ‘homework computer’ with price bands. It was an instant hit with product demand from peers, neighbors and family friends. Since then, my endeavors have evolved significantly and I am now the proud owner of “Treats by Sonia” (Health conscious custom bakery) and as aforementioned a Manager at the local Ice Arena. Additionally, I have translated engineering from motherboards to the realm of nanomaterials and integrated intelligent microsystems. I am now exploring how Nanotechnology could help give millions clean drinking water with my mentor Dr. Sharma. This brought to my notice HydraVita, the project that bagged third place in the 2011 Senior Design Project Competition. I have since been researching past and current submissions, and hope to win this competition in my own time. I strongly believe technology is not successful by getting into a high-impact paper neither it’s successful by having people tell you it’s really interesting. It’s successful once…

    Innovation in Agriculture

    Indian organizations have acquired a reputation for organizational and social innovation and strategies centered round new concepts of frugal innovation. It has been suggested that some of these developments reflect specific socio-economic and framework conditions peculiar to the Indian context. At the same time many Indian firms have yet to institute systems and procedures required for supporting technological, product and service innovations. The existence of formal R&D departments/divisions, offers a ritualistic fig leaf for innovation practice. The absence of organizational support and a holistic innovation strategy coupled with an integrative perspective obscures or limits the development of a proactive innovation strategy. The paradox of Indian innovation suggests that the necessity of developing and managing the abundant supply of human resources in the country is central to its conceptualization and realization. These innovations get manifested mainly in two different patterns, one of which relates to the management of human resources within organizations, and the other to the creation of social enterprises for the development of human resources outside; the latter may also take the form of CSR initiatives by corporate organizations.…
