Abstract: Abstract The probability of breakthrough innovation has increased as we gain a deeper understanding of design innovation processes and the organizations that use them best. It is increasingly clear that an organizational “impedance mismatch” is a barrier to bringing breakthrough innovation home to corporations, governments, and economies. A brief working definition of “impedance mismatch” is that which inhibits the movement of electrons, protons, money, and ideas. We include especially the inhibition of free flowing human communication and creative experimentation.
