Clayton Christensen has described his initial “aha” moment as the realization that firms actually abandon some of their best innovations and entrepreneurial initiatives because their customers say they don’t want it. They have the luxury of waiting to see what tantalizing offer comes their way, and then deciding yeah or nay.
