Successor Clayton Christensen Institute for Disruptive Innovation
Predecessor Innosight Institute
Notes This article says Christensen ran the Clayton Christensen Institute as a think tank and Insight as a consulting firm, but the web redirects you from Innosight to the Christensen Institute now, so it appears they have merged Harvard Business School professor Clayton Christensen, 64, is best known for his 1997 book The Innovator’s Dilemma, which introduced the concept of “disruptive innovation.” He explained how cheaper, simpler or unexpected products and services can bring down big companies like U.S. Steel, Xerox and Digital Equipment. He runs a nonprofit think tank, Clayton Christensen Institute, and he cofounded both a consulting firm, Innosight, and a hedge fund, Rose Park Advisors.
