Why Not?

If Harvard can -We can too.

But "Art is long and time is fleeting"-- so think Globally and act Locally (in Oxom).

Research & Ideas: Open Source Science: A New Model for Innovation

  
http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/5544.html
Borrowing a practice that is common in the open source software community, HBS professor Karim R. Lakhani and colleagues decided to see how "broadcasting" might work among scientists trying to solve scientific problems. The results? Promising for many types of innovation, as he explains in this
Q&A.
  

Research & Ideas: Lessons Not Learned About Innovation

  
http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/5525.html
Why have decades of executives fumbled innovation? One reason: Existing corporate structures, controls, and incentives work against out-of-the-box thinking. Professor Rosabeth Moss Kanter, who has just published a Harvard Business Review article on the topic, discusses her research into the classic traps of innovation and how to avoid them.
