I have the book by Christensen (Innovator's Dilemma), and every time I pick it up I get bored with it (and I am someone who is not bored reading Warren Buffett's annual reports). I really don't understand what the big deal is about this (another) business book that everyone is so crazy about. Yes, because of new technologies (or new ways of doing things) the established incumbent, because of their laziness and/or baggage, could be overthrown by the new (technology or company) if they don't pay attention (or even when they do). This seems like common sense, it happends over and over again in business. I really don't understand what is the new message offered by the book. Could someone please help me and summarize for me the main points of the book? What is really new here? What am I missing? Please help. > Bill, > You need to read "The Innovator's Dilemma: When New Technologies > Cause Great Firms to Fail" by Clayton M.
