		<description><![CDATA[At the risk of restating the obvious, it would seem that the most notable thing that happened in the world of innovation in 2011, at least as far as the business world is concerned, was the sad death of Steve Jobs. His biography sits at number one on the best seller lists, and when was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you are a basketball fan, you may have wondered why the Lakers and the Celtics have been so much more successful than most other franchises in the NBA.  If you&#8217;re not a fan of either of these teams, then their success has probably been annoying, but if you like either of them, then perhaps [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve just finished reading what is by far the best book I have read this year, Henry Kissinger’s On China. Kissinger is probably the most experienced statesman of our times, and he is as well a perceptive analyst and a very fine writer, and his topic, China, does not lack for interest either.  The combination [...]]]></description>

Here&#8217;s a short passage from the introduction: &#8220;Some executives look at the innovations that come from companies like Apple or P&#38;G, and they think to themselves, &#8216;Well, we don’t have people or the resources like theirs.  We can’t do that kind [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When a company achieves greatness, one of the unwelcome side effects is that its leaders become tempted by new challenges elsewhere. So is Apple&#8217;s triumph in the market going to cause the company to  start bleeding executives? Last week Apple&#8217;s head of retail, Ron Johnson, announced he was leaving to become CEO of J.C. Penney. [...]]]></description>
