In 2003 a film was released which one critic called “The Citezen Kane of bad movies”. This is no hyperbole. It was riddled with non-sequetors, plot holes the size of the Pacific Ocean and acting that made the local middle school drama club blush. It was dubbed “The Room” and was the brainchild of a one Tommy Wiseau, a man of unknown origins who financed the entire endeavor himself. Wiseau “wrote”, directed and starred in the drama about deceipt, relationships and spoons. When it was release,…

I walk into the old thrift shop on the corner which smells like a nursing home. I'm not sure why it smells like it. I'm not sure why it always smells that way, it could be the clerk who is around late 70s or early 80s. I walk around just browsing the aisles, just looking for something. “What are you doing?” The clerk asks me as I see a pair of jeans. “Looking ma'am.” I make my way to a jewelry case and I see a silver ring, which looks rather nice. “Can I see this ring?” I ask the clerk.…

When new industries prosper and disrupt the old, the old are then forced to adapt to the new market or fail. For example, when the new television streaming company, Netflix, began to flourish, the old Blockbuster failed to adapt and many stores went out of business. Innovation happens through a creative process, design thinking, that challenges the way things have been done in the past. In CAD Monkeys, Warren Berger defines design thinking as a way to view things sideways, how to reframe,…

Reed Hastings vision for Netflix was an ingenious idea and evidently was a much desired product and service. Who would have ever thought a $40 late fee would have turned into a company worth $28 billion (LaMonica, 2014).
