Roger held an audience of NAB People & Culture team members spellbound with his insightful, action oriented approach to innovation. Applying lateral thinking, he sees opportunities everywhere and turns complexity and the threat of the unknown into exciting business opportunities. Without doubt Roger La Salle is one of the most inspirational speakers and writers of our time.' —Mr Jim Young, Executive General Manager, People and Culture, Group Business Services, National Australia Bank.'Thought provoking insights on innovating tangibles, from one of the best innovation thinkers of our time. A must read for all service industry professionals.' —Mr Chetan S. Wakalkar, Founder Trustee & Group Director, Indira Group of Institutes, Pune, India.'Roger La Salle redefined innovation as 'change that adds value' and presented his simple but extremely powerful 'Matrix Thinking' tool in his first book on the innovation of tangibles. Now he has addressed the intangibles—the increasingly bigger part of the economy where 'ideas and services' are the future. This material is original, and in my view 'gold' for the services sector.' —Dr Rajen M, CEO, Holista Colltech Limited, Australia
