With Kalle Lyytinen, Veeresh Thummandi, and Aaron Weiss, I wrote a paper that analyzes the unbounded nature of digital innovation, drawing on the history of digital camera. It was a fun paper to write and I am glad that it was accepted for a presentation at the Academy of Management this summer.

"Knowing Christ Today: Why We Can Trust Spiritual Knowledge" (Dallas Willard)

I read "Knowing Christ Today", a book written by Dallas Willard who is a Professor of Philosophy at University of Southern California on my flight back from Sweden yesterday. Drawing on the writing of Plato, Aristotle, Jürgen Habermas, Peter Berger and CS. Lewis and invoking the image of Bonhoeffer, Mother Teresa, Kierkegaard, he discusses what it means to "know" spiritual reality of Christ in this pluralistic world. With a rare mix of intellectual integrity and the passionate conviction of personal faith, he lucidly deals with complex issues that many Christians (or any one who's is interested in spirituality and religion) are facing today. His discussion on the relationship between Christian Gospel and Christian pluralism offers a hopeful way going forward and serious intellectual and spiritual challenge to both Christian (conservative and progressive alike) and non-Christians. If you are in for faith and religion, and their relationship with knowledge and plurality, I strongly recommend this one for you.

At the bottom, I also added Amazon link for some books that I thought would be useful for the participants.

"Managing as Designing" (Stanford Business Books)

The book that started it all - at least for me.


"Design Driven Innovation: Changing the Rules of Competition by Radically Innovating What Things Mean" (Roberto Verganti)

An excellent book that gets to the "meaning" of products. It discusses how companies can create disruptive innovation by "redefining" the meaning of their products and services.


"Change by Design: How Design Thinking Transforms Organizations and Inspires Innovation" (Tim Brown)

How Design Thinking Transforms Organizations and Inspires Innovation" (Tim Brown)Change by Design: A good book that shows how design thinking can be applied to solve management problems.


"Designing Design" (Kenya Hara)

A beautiful book on design by Kenya Hara -- designer for Mooji, a Japanese design firm. There are several very thoughtful essay on design and its meaning.

It is quite sad to note that the speech is apparently blocked in China. Just being able to watch this video without worrying about the potential consequences of watching it is a precious gift...
