DARE is waar het werkelijk over moet gaan Ik dacht dat ik op het gebied van innovatie wel zo’n beetje alles had gezien. Meestal ben ik snel teleurgesteld in het grote gehalte doe het zelf methoden en technieken. De auteurs van DARE daarentegen weten, ongetwijfeld vanuit hun jarenlange ervaring, precies de juiste snaar te raken. Het gaat vooral om het hebben van de juiste mindset en manier van werken om succesvol te zijn in organisaties met innovatie. DARE bevat de juiste ingrediënten en inspiratie om organisaties te transformeren en om relevant te blijven in de digital age. De in het boek geïntroduceerde categorie van Rarely Asked Questions (RAQs) hebben mijzelf op onderdelen flink aan het denken gezet. Misschien zelfs nog wel meer dan de tien leidende (klant)vragen waarmee het boek is gestructureerd. De voorbeelden in het boek zijn verfrissend en herkenbaar en gelukkig niet alleen maar de bekende case stories. Ik heb het één in ruk uitgelezen en een prominente plek op mijn bureau gegeven voor continue inspiratie.

De Groot en Rosman zijn erin geslaagd om een zeer goed leesbaar en essentieel naslagwerk te maken om innovatieve groei te realiseren in bedrijven. Het boek bevat veel nuttige tips en suggesties hoe je een bestaande organisatie kan laten veranderen om deze geschikt te maken voor gedurfde groeipaden. Persoonlijk sprak mij de analogie ook zeer aan met Leonardo da Vinci, als misschien wel een van de eerste DARE practioners. Leonardo maakte, om tot zijn vernieuwende creaties te komen, ook diverse sprongen naar andere wetenschappen en gebieden. DARE laat zien dat innovatie ook een symbiose is van veel verschillende terreinen als strategie, businessmodellen, design, sociologie, psychologie en kunst.

DARE is a very interesting book about innovation and innovators. The book is based on years of the author’s experiences with all different kinds of groups and people. The book is meant to be a guide that the authors believe will inspire innovators. DARE stands for Defiance, Adventure, Realism, Endurance. The authors cover each topic and use real stories to get the point across. The information in the book is especially meant for the digital age. I liked the information in the book and the DARE structure built by the authors. I also found the questions that the authors asked made me think.
