Book Description
Reboot is a how-to book for anyone who wants to build a technology strategy in a business world driven by innovation. The book starts by making the case that technology is a (if not the) central driver of business strategy today for most organizations. More than any other trend today, technology continues to remake businesses and industries as new ideas and innovations spawn competitors and entire industries. Reboot goes on to argue that most organizations get this technology strategy stuff horribly wrong...that they are using an antiquated model for thinking about technology (IT vs. Business) and that this out of date model is in part responsible for many of technologies casualties. Finally Reboot presents a solution. There is a better way to think strategically about technology and a better way to deliver on it.

Book Description
If you cannot maintain sustaining and transformational Innovation capabilities in your organisation, you are unlikely to succeed in today's disruptive world. Most entrepreneurs and business managers recognise this; they know that Innovation is essential to them for creating or maintaining future revenues, but they often become stalled in a gap between Innovation rhetoric and action, paralysed by past failures and/or a lack of consensus on what next to do. In Innovation Reboot, Chris Hakes challenges business mangers and entrepreneurs to think again about Innovation. This practical work-book provides an Innovation Capability Assessment Framework, within which managers in organisations, large or small, public or private, can get value from reviewing their organisation's (or their team's) Innovation capabilities and producing improvement plans. Included are insights into why successful organisations regard Innovation as an essential competence in today's disruptive world; a Capability Assessment Framework with a 7 element scorecard, to allow readers to assess their organisation's (or their team's) performance and plan improvements; insights into proven practices that have worked for successful innovators and guidance on how best to manage Innovation and build the competences likely to enhance the readers own, their team's, their organisation's and maybe even their region's future success.

Book Description
Innovation contributes to corporate competitiveness, economic performance and environmental sustainability. In the Internet era, innovation intelligence is transferred across borders and languages at an unprecedented rate, yet the ability to benefit from it seems to become more divergent among different corporations and countries. How much an organization can benefit from innovation largely depends on how well innovation is managed in it. Thus, there is a discernible increase in interest in the study of innovation management. This handbook provides a comprehensive guide to this subject. The handbook introduces the basic framework of innovation and innovation management. It also presents innovation management from the perspectives of strategy, organization and resource, as well as institution and culture. The book’s comprehensive coverage on all areas of innovation management makes this a very useful reference for anyone interested in the subject.

Book Description
Organizations are complex social systems that are not easy to understand, yet they must be managed if a company is to succeed. This book explains networks and how managers and organizations can navigate them to produce successful strategic innovation outcomes. Although managers are increasingly aware of the importance of social relations for the inner-workings of the organization, they often lack insights and tools to analyze, influence or even create these networks. This book draws on insights from social network theory; insights sharpened by research in a number of different empirical settings including production, engineering, financial services, consulting, food processing, and R&D/hi-tech organizations and alternates between offering critical real business examples and more rigorous analysis. This concise book is vital reading for students of business and management as well as managers and executives.

Book Description
Technology leadership is changing - fast. The CIO is quickly losing their traditional power base focused on the ownership of physical assets. The basement stuffed full of 'kit' is no more. In this environment, only the fittest - or smartest - will survive. Reboot: leading IT in the information age presents findings from the frontline of business technology. Leaders at several organisations, from British Airways to Marks & Spencer and the UK government, discuss how they are dealing with the new realities of technology management and their vision for the future.

Book Description
This analysis examines several recent reimagined science fiction franchises (Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, V, and Star Wars) in order to capture how "reboots" work from a fan perspective. Previous encounters with these stories make the reboot experience distinct for fan-viewers, who bring with them a set of expectations and knowledge, often tied to franchise canon that cannot be separated from the new film or television series. Even when elements of the original versions are maintained, memories of them influence the narrative encounter. This book considers reimagined texts from several levels, including the medium, the characters, and the world building, to break down and then explore the reboot experience.

Book Description
From former US Congressman and CIA Officer Will Hurd, a “how-to guide with a prescription for getting the nation on the right footing” (Politico) and “a clarion call for a major political pivot” (San Antonio Report) rooted in the timeless ideals of bipartisanship, inclusivity, and democratic values. “Hurd has the biography and the charisma and the God-given political chops to put the Republican Party—and the rest of the country—on notice.” —THE ATLANTIC It’s getting harder to get big things done in America. The gears of our democracy have been mucked up by political nonsense. To meet the era-defining challenges of the 21st century, our country needs a reboot. In American Reboot, Hurd, called “the future of the GOP” by Politico, provides a “detailed blueprint” (Robert M. Gates, Secretary of Defense, 2006–2011) for America grounded by what Hurd calls pragmatic idealism—a concept forged from enduring American values to achieve what is actually achievable. Hurd takes on five seismic problems facing a country in crisis: the Republican Party’s failure to present a principled vision for the future; the lack of honest leadership in Washington, DC; income inequality that threatens the livelihood of millions of Americans; US economic and military dominance that is no longer guaranteed; and how technological change in the next thirty years will make the advancements of the last thirty years look trivial. Hurd has seen these challenges up close. A child of interracial parents in South Texas, Hurd survived the back alleys of dangerous places as a CIA officer. He carried that experience into three terms in Congress, where he was, for a time, the House’s only Black Republican, representing a seventy-one percent Latino swing district in Texas that runs along 820 miles of the US-Mexico border. As a cyber security executive and innovation crusader, Hurd has worked with entrepreneurs on the cutting edge of technology to anticipate the shockwaves of the future. Hurd, who the Houston Chronicles calls “a refreshing contract to the panderers, petty demagogues, and political provocateurs who reign these days,” draws on his remarkable experience to present “a call to Americans to consider the most contentious issues of our times more holistically” (The Atlantic). He outlines how the Republican party can look like America by appealing to the middle, not the edges. He maps out how leaders should inspire rather than fearmonger. He forges a domestic policy based on the idea that prosperity should be a product of empowering people, not the government. He articulates a foreign policy where our enemies fear us and our friends love us. And lastly, he charts a forceful path forward for America’s technological future. We all know we can do better. It’s time to hit “ctrl alt del” and start the American Reboot.

Book Description
The fourth industrial revolution is underway, and technological changes will disrupt economic systems, displace workers, concentrate power and wealth, and erode trust in public institutions and the democratic political process. Up until now, the focus has largely been on how technology itself will impact society, with little attention being paid to the role of institutions. This new report, Rebooting the Innovation Agenda, analyzes the need for resilient institution and the role they are expected to play in the fourth industrial revolution.
