Produktbeschreibung
Market-Oriented Product Innovation differs from most other titles, written either from a marketing or technical perspective, by giving a holistic view of the product innovation process. It has a product perspective, written from a managerial point of view, recognizing that product innovation, or new product development, is a discipline of its own.

The book also gives a thorough treatment of the human and cultural aspects of product innovation by focusing on the change processes needed for the development of a market-oriented culture.

Rezensionen
"This book is comprehensive, goes into concrete details, describes special tools an is easy to read." (Professor Dr Horst Geschka, Technical University Darmstadt and President, Geschka & Partner Consulting)"Based on Professor Holt's research and his academic and consultancy skills, the resultant book benefits from his experiences in, and knowledge of, many countries. It merits a place on all managers' bookshelves, filling a niche hitherto overlooked, by being written from a product viewpoint. The book also deserves to feature in University courses - graduate and postgraduate." (George Hayward, Editor-in-Chief, TECHNOVATION)"The book offers an unusual perspective in combining two peculiar areas of knowledge (market orientation and technology innovation) in the light of needs assessment. It is a happy mix of a systematic and scientific approach reviewed and tested through a long life consultant experience." (Professor Ferdinando Chiaromonte, Director of Studio Chiaromonte, Past President ISPIM)
