Entrepreneurs in the Western corporate world represent a variety of minority and other marginalized groupsΓÇöimmigrants, refugees, women, blacks, Hispanics, the poor and so many more. Unfortunately, they often fail because the obstacles that block their pathways to success are difficult to overcome. But some of them have succeeded against the odds by developing personal strategies and enabling qualities.This book sets up underdog entrepreneurs for success by providing a framework that helps them analyze common obstacles, and develop effective strategies and qualities to overcome them. Although other authors offer practical advice to minority entrepreneurs, they are yet to integrate insights gleaned from diverse success stories into a coherent framework. By providing such a framework, Morgan enables underdog entrepreneurs to precisely understand why and how an outward-looking mindset, valuable prior knowledge, strategic identity, and social and political skills can help them succeed in the face of what he calls the outsider problemΓÇöas manifested in the lack of access to powerful mainstream networks, lack of relevant know-how and experience, and exposure to intended or unintended discrimination based on stereotypes.This book sends underdog entrepreneurs on their way to success with actionable advice: keep learning, experiment with your identity, use government business support as a springboard and cultivate high-order mental skills.

This book is the result of a global research study of 30 world-class innovators who have collectively created billions of dollars' worth of business value, as well as new advances in the arts and sciences that bring joy to the world and can save millions of lives. Insights from the journeys of the innovators provided in this book will help leaders, organizations, and individuals succeed in their innovative endeavors. In addition, each chapter provides a link to a short video that provides further insights, mostly from the innovators themselves. Innovation through Fusion is essential reading for individual innovators who would like to create the future; teams and organizations that need to craft radical or high-value innovations (especially across industries or organizational silos); and leaders concerned about declining returns on innovation efforts and uncertain about organizational survival in a disruptive world. The author provides a new model of lateral innovation-useful both as an innovation process and as a framework to assess your lateral innovation capabilities. The book is replete with value-creation examples of lives saved, billions of dollars of savings/growth, and new products, services, and companies, as well as stories of leading lateral innovators-who they are and how they succeeded.
