Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Corporate and investor needs for profits are being met with painful cost cutting and a blind adoption of outsourcing. Our organizations look for successes and advantages onshore, offshore and, in fact, “anyshore.” We struggle for change, success, and sustainability, but we persistently underestimate and misalign the resources, skills, and efforts needed. The changes based in the fundamentals of realignments and innovations have been lost, and as a result, so has our collective ability to sustain the initiatives. We’ve lost our innovative abilities.

Innovative Relevance is not just about increases in productivity, loss of domestic jobs, cultural differences, cash flow, and most recently the certification of our financial statements. It also addresses the focused utilization of multiple disciplines that are seldom practiced today—ethics, integrity, passion, and consistency.

Innovative Relevance represents the pragmatic prescription for globalized workforces and operations. It creates the sustainable, repeatable, and measurable roadmap for change. Without relevance, many an approach or set of facts will suffice.

5 out of 5 stars A holistic approach to technology innovation   March 16, 2005
Rick Grant (PA USA)
Why do technology initiatives fail? Everyone in the company has an answer, but the IT personnel in charge of implementing the new systems are probably closest to the mark. Unfortunately, most of our great engineers are not great communicators. Mark Dangelo is the exception. His experience is impressive. His command of the language is quite sufficient to provide us with a step-by-step guidebook for making innovation work in the American enterprise. Filled with real world examples, descriptive graphics, checklists and do-it-yourself assessments, this book is destined for the must-read list for all executives charged with changing their organizations.
