5. The Impact Of Innovation On The Development Of A New...
Innovation is a combination of behaviors and skill sets that contribute to the development of a new
product or service that is cutting edge, creates value, is a breakthrough process or brings financial
success. Some people may think that innovation is something that only comes natural, a born skill or
talent. But according to Dyer, Gregersen, and Christensen (2011), anyone can become more
innovative through the mastering of the five discovery skills (associating, questioning, observing,
experimenting and networking). These five skills were identified through a study on the behaviors
that top innovators engage in. In this analysis, an in–depth review of an article by Vineet Nayar, the
former CEO and vice chairman of HCLT will help to identify how discovery skills, were used to
create an innovative organization. As a newly appointed president of the Delhi–based IT services
provider HCL Technologies (HCLT), Vineet Nayar found himself in a difficult position to either
stick with the current norms of his organization or take a leap towards greater possibilities. Despite
the continued growth of the company's revenues each year, it was still losing market shares and
mindshare. The industry was rapidly changing; its competitors were increasing in growth more
rapidly each year and the loss of the customer's interest in their services (Nayar, 2010). He knew that
something would have to change in order for the company to survive and thrive in a rapidly
changing industry.

7. Stone Breakers And The Stone Breakers
The mid 1800's in France was truly a period for challenging arising issues in the midst a great
change. Gustave Courbet's The Stone Breakers and–Jean Francois Millet's The Gleaners, are two
paintings that use the style of realism to convey a unique perspective of the reality around them.
(subjects, brush stroke, background)
The Stone Breakers is a painting that was created in the year 1849, by French artist Gustave
Courbet. This painting has the dimensions of 165 x 257 cm, and was done with the medium oil on
canvas. Upon first glance, a viewer can see this work as two males doing that remove and break
stone from a road that is being built. However, the painting's connotative meaning shows a man that
appears to be too old and a boy that appears to be too young for such harsh labour. Courbet had
made this decision with the intention of sharing his perspective on the reality of the abuse and
deprivation that had occurred in French rural life during that time period. Courbet's intentions are
significant because they display a truthful perspective while using ordinary people. Courbet
refrained from using subjects of people who are wealthy, and live a more glamourous lifestyle,
which was a norm for many french artists to incorporate in their work. The Stone Breakers is a
painting that challenges the ideologies in society, and provide viewers with a new way of thinking
towards the norms of labour in the society during the time period.
