Innovation strategy helps a company in three ways: exciting its customers, outperforming competitors, and building a new product portfolio. The literature describes many frameworks for innovation strategy but offers little detail about how to implement them. This paper identifies 12 ways of visualizing innovation strategies: platform offering, co-creation, cycle time reduction, brand value enhancement, technology leveraging, future-proofing, lean development, partnering, innovation mutation, creative destruction, market segmentation, and acquisition. These strategies allow 100 leading global companies to dominate their markets and outperform the competition through innovation.

Before Fukushima showed the world what a powerful earthquake and tsunami could do to a nuclear reactor, Westinghouse Electric Co.'s AP1000 reactor housing spent months being rocked by powerful tremors. Hydraulic rams in a 14-acre Purdue University laboratory pummeled huge chunks of the reactor's shield building walls. The 3 feet of concrete sandwiched between steel plates form a wall that Westinghouse executives believe would enable the "advanced passive" plant to withstand a tornado, earthquake or airliner crash under federal requirements established after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

WASHINGTON -- A federal safety panel on Tuesday issued more than two dozen safety recommendations related to the airliner that ditched into the Hudson River after colliding with geese last year. Those include making aircraft engines more bird-resistant and equipping all passenger-carrying planes with life vests and rafts. The National Transportation Safety Board said it was just due to chance that US Airways Flight 1549 had such equipment on board on Jan. 15, 2009, when the Airbus A320 collided with a flock of Canada geese. Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger made a split-second decision to glide the airliner with 155 people aboard into the river rather than risk crashing in a densely populated area by trying to reach an airport.
