Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

Editor's Notes
Creativity and innovation are integral to an organization’s ability to survive and thrive in today’s competitive marketplace. This course provides students with an understanding of how creativity and innovation can be facilitated and managed in a work setting.
Students will learn about theoretical conceptualizations of creativity and innovation as well as practical applications involved in fostering creativity and innovation in the workplace.
Students will be expected to play an active role in learning through class exercises, class discussions, and dialogue with guest speakers, and presentations about real (or planned) innovations in organizations.
Share The Story
Our last two projects will be an individual presentation between 10-15 minutes, and it has to include a creative product or service.
The group project can have 5-7 members, and has to apply what we have learned in class.
Class Quiz: The Innovation Value Chain
Discussion: The Innovation Value Chain, Harvard Business Review
https://hbr.org/2007/06/the-innovation-value-chain
Viewing innovation as an end-to-end process rather than focusing on a part allows you to spot the weakness and strongest links.
Discourages managers from reflexively importing innovation practices that address part of the chain but not necessarily the ones the companies needs help with.
Centers attention on the weakest link, prompts to be more selective on what will work to address the problem area
Helps managers realize a perceived innovation strength may be a weakness.
People often gravitate towards the easiest area, leaving hardest for last or hoping it goes away.
The Idea Poor Company: Build external networks
Solutions Network – finding answers for specific problems
Discovery Network – unearthing new ideas within broad technology or product domains.
Build internal cross-unit networks: different people from inside the same company
The Conversion Poor Company: Cant do anything with the ideas they have (cant get it across the goal line)
- Multichannel funding
- Safe Havens
The Diffusion Poor Company: New measures, new roles.
Creativity / Innovation Application Presentation, Memo: For this project, students will apply what they have learned during the semester.
First, you need to include a creative component to the project. You could develop a product or service, or you can propose another creative idea to me in advance.

It should be clear that there potential for a market or audience for your idea.
Second, you need to write a one-page memo in which you outline how concepts and suggestions that you have learned in this class apply to your creative idea. Concepts and suggestions that will help to ensure the effectiveness of your idea, or that will minimize the possibility of challenges which could arise, should be outlined. Bullet point form is recommended to remain organized and succinct.
Third, select one of the creativity exercises / techniques used in class this semester and apply the technique to your project idea. Include evidence that you have used a technique as an appendix for this assignment.
