Vijay Govindarajan (VG), a world-renowned expert on strategy and innovation, the Coxe Distinguished Professor at Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business, and a Marvin Bower Fellow at Harvard Business School, has published a new book titled The Three-Box Solution: A Strategy for Leading Innovation.

The Three-Box Solution: A Strategy for Leading Innovation addresses the problem of meeting the performance requirements of an existing business while at the same time reinventing it. VG presents “the three boxes,” a proven method for allocating an organization’s energy, time, and resources.

The three boxes are:

* Box 1: The present – Manage the core business at peak profitability.

* Box 2: The past – Abandon ideas, practices, and attitudes that could inhibit innovation.

* Box 3: The future – Convert breakthrough ideas into new products and businesses.

The book utilizes company examples, including GE, Hasbro, IBM, and Tata Consultancy Services, to illustrate how this framework can be used to manage and measure different sets of behaviors and activities across all organizational levels.
