- Planning for the Upturn
- Downturn? Upturn! It might sound like the PBS version of how the top-floor management tries to bewitch what's left of the rest of the company into being happy about the latest restructuring. But it could also be a sound plan for a firm that would otherwise simply flounder under...

- Innovation Is Not Overrated
- I was catching up on Sean Silverthorne's excellent blog and found this link to a post by Scott Berkun on Why Innovation is Overrated. Berkun makes a few reasonable points -- most people don't talk about 'innovation' in everyday conversation. Where it does get used, it's done...

- Three Obstacles to Citizen Innovation
- One of the most interesting emerging ideas in business today is tapping into user communities for innovative ideas. Open source software offers a prime example of this sort of citizen innovation (a phrase I may be stealing from someone, but if so, it's inadvertent). Software isn't the only...

- America's Place in the New Global Order
- The ominous sounding "The Quandary of a Superpower As Others Race to Catch Up" yields a lovely, concise "compare and contrast" review of two books about America's future in Sunday's New York Times.

- Is Your Company Going Green?
- The business world seems like it's going green, at least according to what you see in the media. McKinsey has said that having a green strategy is now a competitive edge (if it's viable).

- Is College Necessary?
- With 60 percent of Americans now attending college, Richard Posner asks whether the number might go to 100 percent (don't snort; it wasn't even a century ago that most people didn't go to high school). At first, in his post on the boom in college education, he seems to think...

- Visual Problem Solving, Part II

- The Visual Way to Solve Problems
