I wonder why companies when then become big stop innovating. All these managers read Innovator Dilemma but still they stop innovating.<p>For example, we all know that Google has very very smart engineers. So I wonder why Google stop innovating?<p>The last disruptive innovation by Google was Gmail (I think).<p>Android is copy of iPhone (not Google innovation), Google+ is essentially copy Facebook, Google App Engine is answer on AWS/Heroku, etc.<p>I have been reading Innovator Dilemma and other books by Christensen but I would like to understand a little more what are dynamics inside big companies preventing disruptive innovations.<p>I would like to start discussion and inside stories from big companies about their attempts and failures to start disruptive innovations.
Have you heard of Google X Lab?<p>Or the Google Glasses?<p>Or the driver-less car they have been working on?<p>Google are just about one of the most innovative companies around.
