The foremost authority on innovation and growth presents a path-breaking book on business strategy every company needs to transform innovation from a game of chance to one in which they develop products and services customers not only want to buy, but are willing to pay premium prices for.
How do companies know how to grow? How can they create products that they are sure customers want to buy? Can innovation be more than a game of hit and miss? Harvard Business School professor Clayton Christensen has the answer. A generation ago, Christensen revolutionized business with his groundbreaking theory of disruptive innovation. Now, he goes further, offering powerful new insights.
After years of market research, Christensen has come to one critical conclusion: our long held maximthat understanding the customer is the crux of innovationis wrong. Customers don't buy products or services; they "hire" them to do a job. Understanding customers does not drive innovation success, he argues. Understanding customer jobs does. The "Jobs to Be Done" approach can be seen in some of the world's most respected companies and fast-growing startups, including Amazon, Intuit, Uber, Airbnb, and Chobani yogurt, to name just a few. But this book is not about celebrating these successesit's about predicting new ones.
Christensen contends that by understanding what causes customers to "hire" a product or service, any business can improve its innovation track record, creating products that customers not only want to hire, but that they'll pay premium prices to bring into their lives. Jobs theory offers new hope for predictable growth to companies frustrated by their hit and miss efforts.
This book carefully lays down Christensen's provocative framework, providing a comprehensive explanation of the theory and why it is predictive, how to use it in the real worldand, most importantly, how not to squander the insights it provides.
Why do most companies fail at innovation, and what is the causal mechanism that will allow you to compete against luck?
- A New Perspective on the Customer: Learn why the long-held maxim that "understanding the customer" is the crux of innovation is wrong. Stop focusing on customer profiles and start understanding the "job" they hire your product to do.
- The Causal Mechanism of Choice: Move beyond correlation to understand causality. Discover the framework that explains why customers make the choices they do, turning innovation from a game of hit-and-miss into a predictable process.
- From Theory to Practice: See how the world's most respected companies and fast-growing startups like Amazon, Intuit, and Uber have used this approach to create products customers will pay premium prices for.
- A Playbook for Growth: This book doesn't just explain the theory; it provides a comprehensive guide on how to apply it in the real world and avoid squandering the powerful insights it provides.
