3m Post-It Notes Case Study

One innovation was the change in speed of communication, the telegraph was invented by Samuel F.B. Also the lightbulb, invented by Thomas Edison, and the typewriter caused revolutionary changes in American society.

One of the funniest although interesting inventions I stumbled upon was, sliced bread! Bread was probably made about 12,000 years ago, by mixing grains and water. It was probably tough and was cooked by putting hot coals on it. It wasn’t until about 1912 that Fredrick Rohwedder had the idea to create a bred slicer. All the bakers he talked to complained that the loves would go stale. So Rohwedder created a wrapper. He went to a Bakery in Battle Creek Michigan; they loved his idea and started making pre-cut loves. (CBC4Kids: Sliced

The second major innovation is the telephone because it opened up doors for everybody. The telephone allowed them to be connected to other parts of the world, or their loved ones did not live in the same city. It permitted them to stay connected to relatives and have audio conversations without the inconvenience of letters which took a while to arrive by post. It produced better business for the small to larger corporate businesses as well as in the event of an emergency.

1. 1. Consider the 4 approaches to creativity. What approaches has Apple relied upon? What alternative have others firms in the industry pursued? What other stoves could Apple implement?

Kaufman and Beghetto (2014) further suggest that creativity can be fostered in children to a certain extent by providing them with opportunities to express their own unique ideas.

Alongside the entrepreneur spirit, Innovation is the process of taking new ideas and implementing them into the market. Key word being “new”, an innovation can be sometimes viewed as the application to better solutions that meet new demand-requirements, inarticulated needs or existing market needs. Innovative ideas range from: goods, services, products, processes, services, technologies or ideas that create value for which customers will pay for. For an idea to be an innovation, it must be replicable at an economical cost and must satisfy a specific need. This means is that one must be ready and willing put their new idea to the test. On the other hand, there is recognition that “innovation is also critical to cultural, environmental, social, and artistic progress as well” (Bullinger, 2006). With this stated, high-tech innovation is ultimately the reason why we can be thankful for the many new conveniences of the 21st century. Although we might see the forefront of innovation being very prominent in today’s world, innovation is truly nothing new. From the start of modern man times, innovative ideas have paved the way for civilization to advance and develop into what we are today and at the same time, we have barely begin to chip away at the tip of the iceberg of our true human potential. Some scholars believe that innovation is a

The Automobile This was the invention of an affordable car with a combustion engine. Henry Ford created his with the Model-T car. This invention not only improved transportation, but also gave the US the economic boost that made the Roaring20’s so prosperous. Jobs were provided in automobile factories as well as road construction

Barnet (1953) defines the invention as such “Any thought, behavior, or thing that is new because it is qualitatively different from existing forms. …every invention is an idea, or constellation of ideas; but some inventions by their nature must remain mental organizations only, whereas others may be given overt and tangible expression”

In the 1900’s, inventors were very motivated to push their developments into society and make their creations known. Some popular innovations include the escalator, the very first radio receiver, teabags, the electric washing machine, refrigerators, disposable razors, the vacuum and the first synthetic plastic called BakeLite, used for packaging. All these products have become household items

Modern inventions are getting more advanced every day.These are two inventions that are very interesting in my opinion and the first one is the boosted board and the second one

For this assignment, you will research the innovation architecture of at least three companies that are well-known for successfully supporting a culture of innovation. Write a 1,500-word paper that addresses the following:

Another great invention in this year was the floppy disk, which was invented by Alan Shugart. This floppy disk helps save files from computers. It works kind of like a pin drive now days.

people could communicate and the longevity of the information, those inventions were based on the key concept of the symbol.

Innovation is normally used to denote the process that takes place when a product or a process is developed, from idea to market; the concept of invention only denotes the process that takes place when new ideas or solutions are generated. Baumol (2002) argues “is it possible to have lots of inventions and still lack innovations. Nevertheless, inventions are a necessary precondition for innovation”.

Although in 1983 Microsoft Word was created and used, it wasn’t until 1989 where Microsoft Office was officially released, which included Word, Excel and Power Point. From that stint, more than a dozen versions had surface perfecting the applications already integrated, and introducing new one. For instance, with the announcement of Windows 1.6 Microsoft Office a new application arises, Mail for PC Networks. In 1992 another version of Microsoft Office was issued in conjunction with the first Microsoft Office CD Room Software and the first Professional version that encompasses Access.
