Findings
Ever wondered why particular companies always seem to lead the way when it comes to the launch of groundbreaking products? And have you stopped to think why these organizations are considerably more likely to cut the mustard with an innovation than any of their rivals? Cynics among us might point a suspecting finger towards luck or coincidence. It would, of course, be folly to ignore the importance of such factors. However, repeated success within what remains a highly competitive area is surely down to more than mere good fortune. Even the most skeptical should acknowledge that the businesses concerned must be doing something right.
