Journal #4
In Jon Gertner's article “True
Innovation (2012),” the author states what is innovation by the example of Bell
Labs and how it boosts the society.
First at all, many significant
accomplishments in Bell Labs are showed to certificate the innovation of Bell
Labs. Then he lists many approaches to innovation and the importance of
creative methods in workforce. In the conclusion, the author claims that there
are many ways to innovation.
I do agree that Bell labs gave a great
contribution to the development of modern society, especially in the field of
communication technology. In addition, this group also proves that the
efficiency of workforce is not only created by long-hour work, but brain storm
and some creative thoughts may play a very vital role for the long-term
perspective. In order to adapt to the trend of modern business, more and more
company devotes much money into to innovation like Apple, IBM. These company
got pretty profits from the benefits of innovation. I think in 21st
century, innovation is one of the most important aspects that keeps the company
alive in this time.
When it comes to the methods to
innovation, Mr. Kelly’s mentioned that freedom is a significant aspect to
innovation. From where I stand, most innovations is the accumulated process of knowledge.
Another vital factor of innovation is the unique method of thinking. Most evidence
has told us that diligence is not the must way to create new items. Just Albert
Einstein said, ” Genius is 1% talent and 99% percent
hard work...”, but at the same time, diligence is the mother of good fortune.
