]]> Comment on The importance of gut feeling by Kristian Steen Holme http://retropeak.com/2010/01/30/the-importance-of-gut-feeling/comment-page-1/#comment-168 Kristian Steen Holme Mon, 01 Feb 2010 10:17:38 +0000 http://retropeak.com/?p=101#comment-168 Hi Andreas, By this very relevant and interesting entry a few thoughts intrinsically triggered my mind. First of all Six Sigma is constantly and rightfully blamed for its lack of methods for innovation. By all means - it was never intended to foster great innovations merely initiating incremental steps to process perfection. As mentioned Six Sigma is rooted in a fact based decision making philosophy and often this encompasses the use of historical data. Putting the concept of Innovation on the edge, innovation cannot stem from historical data since it is then not innovative, but only a reinterpretation of existing patterns or needs. In that perspective Google Maps is not an innovation. We have had maps for years and we have been able to navigate from the stars for centuries. Putting it all together on a new platform does not constitute a genuine innovation. The Ipad for that matter, as described by Roberto Verganti creates a need not yet identified and – time will show - makes us crave it. On that note, neither user-driven nor open-ended innovation will help us because there is nothing at stake. The user already showed us or told us what they wanted. Risk is high, along with it the financial potential of real innovation originating from pure “gut feel”. Thanks for keeping an interesting blog! Kristian Hi Andreas,

Third-party apps for making tunes, games, newsprints and magazine and books, tons of good stuff, but they just didn't really sell it right (aside from the books).

I'm gonna wait for the product to improve and and also for the price to drop. Knowing Apple I won't have to wait too long.
