Epilogue

Abstract

It is customary to complete any writing with the writer’s perspective on the future of this approach to business. In the past this has been relatively easy since in most cases the projection goes well beyond the time when the writer will have to justify his or her projections. In this case there is already much that has been proven and with the speed of technology and globalization any prediction probably only has a few years to make its mark. In this case I feel confident that forward-thinking and progressive organizations will have out stripped my ideas in a very few years and have their companies ensure the good innovative ideas bubble to the top, so that they can make better investment decisions and can manage implementation with less wasted resources and time as part of the normal everyday business vocabulary. And by aligning and enabling innovation, investment, and implementation, the companies will gain their competitive advantage in the marketplace that they operate.
