"Jugaad Innovation is the most comprehensive book yet to appear on the subject [of frugal innovation]." ―The Economist A frugal and flexible approach to innovation for the 21st century Innovation is a key directive at companies worldwide. But in these tough times, we can't rely on the old formula that has sustained innovation efforts for decades―expensive R&amp;D projects and highly-structured innovation processes. Jugaad Innovation argues the West must look to places like India, Brazil, and China for a new approach to frugal and flexible innovation. The authors show how in these emerging markets, jugaad (a Hindi word meaning an improvised solution born from ingenuity and cleverness) is leading to dramatic growth and how Western companies can adopt jugaad innovation to succeed in our hypercompetitive world. <ul>
<li>Outlines the six principles of jugaad innovation: Seek opportunity in adversity, do more with less, think and act flexibly, keep it simple, include the margin, and follow your heart</li> <li>Features twenty case studies on large corporations from around the world―Google, Facebook, 3M, Apple, Best Buy, GE, IBM, Nokia, Procter &amp; Gamble, PepsiCo, Tata Group, and more―that are actively practicing jugaad innovation</li> <li>The authors blog regularly at Harvard Business Review; their work has been profiled in BusinessWeek, MIT Sloan Management Review, The Financial Times, The Economist, and more</li> <li>Filled with previously untold and engaging stories of resourceful jugaad innovators and entrepreneurs in emerging markets and the United States</li> </ul>
This groundbreaking book shows leaders everywhere why the time is right for jugaad to emerge as a powerful business tool in the West―and how to bring jugaad practices to their organizations.

Redevenons ingénieux ! 
Jugaad : ce mot hindi populaire recouvre un concept que l'on pourrait traduire en français par "débrouillardise", soit improviser des solutions ingénieuses dans des conditions adverses (voire hostiles). Dotés de cet état d'esprit agile, les entrepreneurs en Inde - mais aussi en Chine, au Brésil ou en Afrique - parviennent à transformer les contraintes en opportunités et à "faire plus avec moins". Cette approche d'innovation frugale et flexible ne se limite plus aux économies émergentes. Dans ce livre, vous découvrirez les six principes de l'innovation jugaad, ainsi que de nombreux exemples de mise en pratique de cet état d'esprit résilient et créatif dans le monde entier, dans différents secteurs d'activités. En France, certaines entreprises ont déjà opté pour cette démarche d'innovation nouvelle, et développé des solutions ingénieuses et génératrices de forte croissance : c'est le cas d'Accenture, Alcatel, Renault-Nissan, L'Oréal, Lafarge, Air Liquide, Saatchi & Saatchi + Duke et de la SNCF, dont nous avons interviewé les dirigeants pour l'édition française de ce livre. Les structures et processus industriels de l'après-guerre - gros budgets R&D, hiérarchies, etc - ne sont plus complètement adaptés au monde complexe dans lequel nous vivons. Redevenons ingénieux !
