      Sad news. This is the first time I'm hearing him - didn't even know who he was when I started. I used to have a very poor opinion about marketing and administration - he changed my mind. (I still have a very poor opinion about marketing, but now I see there are some aspects of it that are good).

    Some takeaways.
    1. The customer is not the right unit of analysis; the "job" needing to get done by "hiring" a product/service is.
    2. Marketing with such "jobs" in mind is referred to as using potential innovations.
    3. Entrants using disruptive innovations tend to defeat incumbents using sustaining innovations (which are still critically important).
    4. Sustaining innovations make good things better, and are replicative in nature; important but not bulletproof. Often overshoot what the customer actually requires.
    5. Incumbents survive disruptive entrants by also engaging in disruptive innovation on the side with completely independent business units.
    6. Efficiency innovations do more with less, keeping a company competitive and increasing profits with the side effect of reducing jobs.
    7. Outsourcing is easier than increasing profits, so companies outsource to improve their ratio.
    8. Focusing on ratios is detrimental to national economic growth, which is critical for the market to prosper.
    9. Disruptive innovations stimulate economic growth. Companies focusing only on efficiency innovations causes economic recessions.

    He may have had some trouble speaking because of his stroke but he mind is working extremely fast. You can tell by how witty he is and how quickly he can come up with answers to questions along with what seems like he knows every company in detail off the top of his head so his memory was working really well too. This is the first time I have seen him and I'm so sad to see all the RIP's. He looks very young to have had so many health problem and to have passed away. What a great talk!!

    Four types of innovations:
    1. Potential products
    2. Sustaining innovations
    3. Disruptive products
    4. Efficiency innovations
    Architecture to every job to be done:
    1. There's a job to know given the situation I'm in. Functional, emotional, successful
    3. How will they choose us.
    2. What are the experiences we need to provide to do the job perfectly.
    3. What kind of brand do we need to apply to that product.
