As faculty chair of the Leadership Initiative at Harvard Business School, Linda Hill, the Wallace Brett Donham Professor of Business Administration, has chaired numerous HBS Executive Education programs. While doing research on leadership and innovation for her programs, Hill discovered that while there is plenty of information about both these ideas, there was very little linking the two together to create success. Specifically, she answers the question about what the leader’s role is in sustaining an initiative organization.
These questions led her to co-author the book Collective Genius: The Art and Practice of Leading Innovation with Greg Brandeau, former CTO of The Walt Disney Studios and current COO/president of Media Maker; Emily Truelove, a PhD candidate at MIT’s Sloan School of Management; and Kent Lineback. The book argues that innovation is a “team sport,” not the act of a sole inventor. “Truly innovative groups are consistently able to elicit and then combine members’ separate slices of genius into a single work of collective genius,” the authors write.
