In a recent interview Dr. Curtis Carlson, President and CEO of The Stanford Research Institute, describes the importance of innovation, entrepreneurship and tapping into the genius of your team (or your students). Among his many achievements, Dr. Carlson started and helped lead the high-definition television (HDTV) program that became the U.S. standard and in 1997 won an Emmy® Award for outstanding technical achievement. Another team started and led by Carlson won an Emmy® in 2000 for a system that measures broadcast image quality. His new book, Innovation: The Five Disciplines For Creating What Customers Want is a must-read for anyone who is interested in tapping into the genius of their team/students.
