“21 The Movie” and Innovation
Posted on Mar 28, 2008 in Innovation & Creativity
“21: The Movie” is in theaters today in the United States. Last week I wrote a blog entry on what innovators could learn from blackjack card counters.
Today, to celebrate the formal release of the movie, I am including a downloadable pdf with a full article on the topic of statistics, probability, card counting and innovation. This is an expanded version of the blog entry.

Karl Staib - Your Work Happiness Matters on Mar 30, 2008
We think we can rely on sure bets, but as we all know there is no such thing as a sure thing. That’s why we must spread out our ideas to many, not just a few and see what works best.
I like your example of Koch Industries. They’ve gone from central controlled management to spreading out their resources to everyone with a good idea. It would make great work happy story. When people are giving the freedom to innovate they make smart decisions.
