In 1997, a book titled The Innovator’s Dilemma: When New Technologies Cause Great Firms to Fail introduced the theory of "disruptive innovation”. After twenty years of refining the theory, the same author, with his collaborators, published another influential book titled Competing Against Luck: The Story of Innovation and Customer Choice. This book instructs in detail how to innovate, and on what factors to base our innovations on. It lets us see that customers purchase a product not necessarily to own it, but rather to fulfill a “Job to Be Done”. Therefore, from a jobs perspective, we’ll be able to find innovation opportunities in our business endeavors.
