"Winning the Innovation Race identifies practices that leading companies use to innovate on a sustained basis. Most of these practices are drawn from the automotive supply industry. The book features past winners of the PACE (Premier Automotive Suppliers' Contributions to Excellence) Award. Sage, a cofounder of the PACE Award program, reveals how these companies have learned to constantly reinvent themselves, take risks, encourage their employees to generate ideas, and turn the best of those ideas into innovations that customers value."--Jacket.
