No-Excuses Innovation argues for innovation and a clear, targeted strategy for planning and implementation that will help small and medium-sized mature enterprises (SMMEs) thrive through reinvention and renewal.

As SMMEs approach maturity, it is common for them to choose to only maintain what they believe to be the safety of maturity attained, rather than to opt for a strategy that also includes constant reinvention and renewal. But as Bruce A. Vojak and Walter B. Herbst argue, this path of seemingly least risk and least resistance can be the most detrimental to the company in the long run.

The real risk is to not innovate.

No-Excuses Innovation makes the case to owners, advisors, executives, and leaders, as well as those in the trenchesof the value of innovation, why it's worthy of investment, and what it can do for the health and longevity of a company. This book also details how innovation, and thus reinvention and renewal, can be most effectively and efficiently implemented. With case studies and narrative examples drawn from their time in industry and the academy, the authors present a valuable strategy guide specific to SMMEs and one of the biggest existential dilemmas they encounter.
