Innovation is an imperative for any organization seeking sustained growth. To infuse the organization with urgency and focus, CEOs are hiring Chief Innovation Officers (CINO). It's the hottest new "C" in the executive suite. But how should a CEO hire the right CINO, and what can executives aspiring to the CINO role do to develop themselves for the challenge? "Innovation Alchemists: What every CEO should know to hire the right Chief Innovation Officer", is the first book focused on the CINO opportunity for large organizations. Rich in frameworks for the CEO and Executive Committee to shape decisive thinking, the book also speaks to current and future CINOs seeking to refine their professional capabilities for success. Twenty renowned business leaders (many of them CINO's) share their points of view on what it takes to fulfill the promise of innovation leadership.
