How much of innovation is inspiration, and how much is hard work? The answer lies somewhere in the middle, says management thinker Peter Drucker.

Which means that, more often than not, there is a great disconnect between what the company provides and what consumers actually want.

I can tell you that there are a plethora of strategy books out there. However, you’ll find many of them arcane, academic, and even confusing.
