Thanks Deborah and happy new year! Thanks also for all of your contributions this year. And you're exactly right about "freeing"--it's the Seth Godin version of Ben Zander's automatic A. Instead, star... More

Happy new year to you too Povl. Thanks for the great comment--and reminder that "fresh eyes" are valuable in getting us out of every kind of rut (even the most invisible, e.g. our cultural context). More

To guide M-Prize participants and would-be management innovators alike, here are a set of high-level principles (and some low-to-the-ground tips) that just might increase your chances of success when it comes to making an impact and impressing the judges and your peers in the M-Prize.

Introducing the Harvard Business Review/McKinsey M-Prize for Management Innovation

And we believe that's not an undertaking for any one individual or organization--it's everybody's problem.

Now, without a
