Michael, Big thanks for sharing this. It's very encouraging. I'm a fan of Gary Hamel, who helped get GameChanger (breakthrough innovation - http://tinyurl.com/c9rfuf) going in Shell. He has the ability to translate complex ideas into concepts that senior managers can embrace. It's a shame that his company www.strategos.com got involved with Enron - the fallout from that damaged his reputation and, some say, nearly ended his career.
