Smart Companies, Smart Tools Transforming Business Processes into Business Assets Thomas M. Koulopoulos Smart companies—innovative firms in which the nurturing of the unique contributions of each individual employee is leading to unprecedented success.

Smart Companies, Smart Tools—the book that shows you how to make these innovations a part of your company.

The Innovation Zone demonstrates that most dynamic innovations are not a single stroke of brilliance and great, new products but are a disciplined, easily-learned business process that includes an organizational incubator that supports and sustains the practice of turning ideas into breakthrough innovations. Debunking nearly all other books' approach that innovation is just great products, classic examples such as GM and OnStar(R) and 3M and Post-It-Notes(R) demonstrate how the author's Six Lessons of Innovation can be learned, refined, and developed by leaders and organizations into core competencies for success.

Outsourcing is the most popular movement of the new global business economy. In fact, the typical executive will soon spend one-third of their budget on outsourcing! Smartsourcing is the next evolution in outsourcing. Traditional outsourcing reduces costs by moving the work to where the least expensive workers are. While that may cut costs, it simply replicates the status quo. Smartsourcing goes a step further by showing companies how to partner with service providers to not only cut costs, but also increase innovation across the full spectrum of their business. Smartsourcing is the first book on the market to be ahead of the curve on one of the most important shifts in business today.
