the question for me is, why is it so much more important today to point
out that development is
never done by one single individuum but is a process that includes a lot
of people adding and
evaluating thousands of tiny and comprehensive steps?
While this seems to be common sense and only logical for us developers and users of open source software, it is not so much for economists and old-style companies producing traditional goods or services. I had to learn this (to my own surprise) when i got to know more people in this field. The researchers in fields of open and distributed innovation are very interested in the mechanisms of OS development and the incentives of the developers to transfer them to traditional markets. It makes little sense when i try to write about that, but more to read the original literature, e.g. the best-selling "democratizing innovation" ( http://web.mit.edu/evhippel/www/democ1.htm ). It might be interesting to know that the LEGO company of Denmark survived because of overcoming old marketing schemes and actively supporting user/open innovation strategies (with the LEGO mindstorm community).

Oh boy, I really hope not! ;)

Tis is called 'Creative Destruction'. This is a concept introduced by
Schumpeter. You need to stop what you do before (to turn the page) to
develop your activity in the economic field.

Got a ref nyone? What did they do? Change out all the managers? Or completely reinvent the company 'mission'?

You have something on :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_destruction
This was just a remark to give a name about this practice, nothing else.
That is what LEGO did because I think that their historical activity
leading it directly into the wall. This is what do a lot of companies
in fact :)
I think it is possible to modify or not managers or reinvent the
company mission to achieve this goal, everything depends on the
choice of share/stockholders. And for LEGO, I don't know.

'Creative Chaos' man, that's what CC was for
but if you see a poor lawyer out there, missing fuel for his 4x4, give him some pipas, so that he doesn't die of hunger
i think all the system was invented for lawyers and police and not the contrary
hasta pronto sevy
