Innovation Bookclub with Dale Sinclair

Major Projects Association

There are hundreds of different ways of looking at innovation in major projects but for the purpose of our most recent Bookclub session, we limited these to just six.

Dale Sinclair, Head of Digital Innovation at WSP, provided our bookclubbers with his take on seven books looking at the theme of innovation (the original six plus a bonus book). These were:

• The Nature of Technology by W. Brian Arthur
• Crossing the Chasm by Geoffrey A. Moore
• Pirates in the Navy by Tendayi Viki
• Gut Feelings by Gerd Gigerenzer
• A Whole New Mind by Daniel H. Pink
• The Paradox of Choice by Barry Schwartz

Our podcast recording captures Dale's commentary on the six books but excludes the conversations that took place during the event, as the bookclubbers discussed the ideas raised by each author.

The result is an engaging and personal perspective on the nature of innovation, construction and infrastructure, and major projects.
