		<description><![CDATA[<p>Here’s my visual summary of Stephen M. Shapiro’s 2011 book <strong>Best Practices Are Stupid: 40 Ways to Out-Innovate the Competition</strong>. It&#8217;s a good book for people handling innovation management in medium and large enterprises, although small business owners might still be able to apply a few tips like the one about getting out and observing your customers (Lessons from Indiana Jones, p.69) and when to buy/innovate/hire solutions (There&#8217;s no such thing as a &#8220;know-it-all&#8221;, p.42).</p>
