White paper: Bringing Human Values to the Forefront of Corporate Innovation

Speaking to executives at the International School of Business in Hyderabad India, Debra and William Miller demonstrate why human values and a wholistic perspective are critical components for evolving the field of corporate innovation today.
Drawing from years of research and the wisdom of the India culture, they illuminate new insights into the practice of innovation that can be implemented not just in India but throughout the world.

Perhaps the most far-reaching lesson to learn from our global recession is that we need to “grow up” in developing the moral faculties that Adam Smith so relied upon to guide the individual and societal decisions for economic prosperity.
