<p>Advance Praise for The Innovation Edge "QFD is a powerful tool for creating competitive advantage for the company of the 90’s. The Innovation Edge explains both the technique and its implementation. It’s eminently readable and easy to understand. If you’re a student or a businessman, reading this book will set you on the right path." — Professor Ron Pannesi, Kenan-Flagler Business School University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill "The Innovation Edge is an important book that describes the principles behind a systematic approach to developing customer-driven strategies. The use of QFD processes has allowed us to achieve this goal in less time and with less effort." — John H. Edholm, Vice President, Pierce &amp; Stevens Corp. "The weakness of many of today’s ‘quality’ systems is that they don’t address the essential role of top management. The Innovation Edge corrects this deficiency by aiming directly at the executive suite. Barnard and Wallace are not content with merely preaching the new philosophy; this book is loaded with techniques never before published. It brings the techniques and strategies coupled with real-world case studies within the grasp of even the busiest executive. If you’re managing for the twenty-first century, this book is a must." — Glenn H. Mazur, Executive Director, QFD Institute</p>

The Innovation Edge: Creating Strategic Breakthroughs Using the Voice of the Customer

Oliver Wight Ltd Pub

<p>Reporting on an extraterrestrial sighting and their message for mankind, a renowned journalist clashes with those who oppose the story, unaware that the real battle is for his own soul. After the loss of a close friend, journalist Zach Miller spirals into depression, suffering from writers block for the first time in his career. Battling to regain his passion to write, he is approached by an esoteric group who promises him a story of historical magnitude, one that will forever change the way we look at life. Taken to a secluded ranch, Zach is completely stunned as he comes face to face with extraterrestrials. These galaxy travelers inform him that they are distant ancestors of mankind and will be coming back soon to rescue humanity from their current path of destruction. They have chosen Zach to relay their message of hope and how they plan to bring about the peace and spiritual harmony that all men long for. While Zach and millions of others around the world embrace the news, his sister Vanessa finds the account disturbing. For years, her religious faith has been a source of irritation for Zach and he scoffs at her suggestion that these aliens may have sinister motives. Unlike her confusing Christian dogma which has only caused division over the centuries, the Ancestors offer a creed that seeks to unify and provides him a deeper knowledge into many of life's mysteries. Infused with a real sense of purpose, Zach remains steadfast to overcome any obstacles that keep him from sharing this newfound wisdom. But nothing he has learned can possibly prepare him for The Day. Thrust into the most cataclysmic event in modern times, Zach is forced to reevaluate everything he has heard and confront the troubling questions about the true nature of the Ancestors. With his back up against an overwhelming wall of fear and doubt, his only chance to survive hinges upon discovering the real truth in time.</p>
