• How do you do innovation?
  
  It is easy to see how you could get a new idea out of it – whether that is a product or process innovation. There is a lot of hot air spoken about innovation.

• The final sustainable edge
  
  The authors advocate the creation of “process networks” and “process orchestrators.” (Curiously, the word “orchestrator” is used a lot but doesn’t appear in the index, this makes me wonder if the book was rushed, or maybe is was just poor indexer.) In a process network a variety of different companies come together to produce a product. I’ve finished reading “The Only Sustainable Edge” by Johns Hagel and Seely Brown . At the risk of boring my readers with a third entry on the subject of this book I think it deserves a wrap up - and a slight correction to some of my initial

• Flexibility, design and process
  
  Less is more .) The same is true in development processes. Often a company cries, “We need a flexible development process” because... we need to respond to anything a customer can throw at us, all our projects are different, etc. But I wonder how many of the organizations that say this actually do vary their process?

• Pop goes another great business opportunity
  
  I’ve mentioned before that I’m in the process of moving house. So yesterday’s Financial Times (10 September 2005) was very interesting. The thing that really caught my eye was a story entitled Investors get chance to profit in property . A bank and an estate agent are planning to offer an investment product that will track the housing index.
