		<description>Bob,

Thank you for the pointers to Drucker. For those looking for the Business Week article, &lt;a href=&quot;http://homepage.mac.com/bobembry/studio/biz/conceptual_resources/authors/peter_drucker/entre_innovation.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;here is the direct link Bob indicated&lt;/a&gt;.  
As always, Drucker is quite insightful and very direct. Here is a telling quote from the article, which I enjoyed reading:
&lt;em&gt;&quot;In this country we by and large still believe that entrepreneurship is having a great idea and that innovation is largely R&amp;D, which is technical. Of course we know that entrepreneurship is a discipline, a fairly rigorous one, and that innovation is an economic not a technical term, and entrepreneurship creates a new business. That&#039;s not news. In fact, it&#039;s what made Edison so successful more than a century ago. But American businesses with few exceptions—Merck, Intel, and Citibank come to mind—still seem to think that innovation is a &quot;flash of genius,&quot; not a systematic, organized, rigorous discipline.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>See Peter Drucker&#039;s Innovation and Entrepreneurship for an exploration of Purposeful Innovation and the Seven Sources of Innovative Opportunity plus the contrast with the Bright Idea. The fundamental starting question might be: &quot;What needs doing?&quot;
Also there is a Drucker interview on Entrepreneurship and Innovation that appeared in Business Week several years ago.
