One is not better than the other but drvsuptiie innovation is certainly more interesting. So it is probably a fair criticism that in the West’s media-driven culture we tend to overemphasize it. But I also agree with the defender of drvsuptiie innovation that it is more valuable for success in a business setting. I have a sense that incremental innovation is somewhat inevitable. Technologies tend to layer on each other such that the variety of situational factors that allow for the next incremental improvement are often just as important as the person or group who actually leads the innovation. Incremental innovation furthers progress across an industry as innovations are quickly adapted or often times developed simultaneously by multiple entities within an industry. Disruptive innovations are more talked about in the West because in a capitalist society this is what will leave your competition in the dust.Jeremy McCarthyDirector Global Spa Development and OperationsStarwood Hotels
