How can innovation be taught?

Garth Saloner, Philip H Knight replies:

Innovation can be taught , and we have learnt how to do that innovation requires 3 elements:
1. You have to recognize the problem and that needs analytically thinking , B Schools have been pretty good at that .
2. You have to come up with a solution, which is partly analytically and partly creative. I think business schools don't see themselves as teaching creativity . But we have developed process for creative and on how to teach creative thinking .
3. The third element is implementation  which is the biggest part of innovation, that is how you teach innovation, creativity and personal leadership.
