"The Innovation Superhighway" describes how managers can use knowledge management processes and tools to sustain high levels of innovation among their employees to gain competitive advantage.
It links the two separate areas of knowledge management and innovation into the combined area that Debra calls "Knowledge Innovation".
She provides a comprehensive framework for knowledge innovation and shows how it can be applied worldwide for the success of an enterprise.
Debra looks at the innovation process not just from a corporate standpoint, but also from a government standpoint giving us case studies, stories, and insights into the importance of Knowledge and Innovation.
This is what Leif Edvinsson has to say about the book:
"Debra Amidon - a globally leading knowledge pioneer for decades - leverages how past experience is the key to visualizing the emerging longitude patterns of the Future through knowledge innovation. This book is a milestone in the knowledge field. She has put the spotlight on the two major dimensions - enterprising as well as innovations. The methodologies and international network outlined in this book represent a true global entrepreneurial spirit for nourishing intellectual capital."
