Reviews
This is one of the first comprehensive studies on EDI in an Asian context. The book by Justina Tan and Wing On Lee impresses not only with its scientific foundation but also with its relevance. It thus builds a valuable bridge between research and practice and opens a new chapter in EDI research. Peter Kesting, Associate Professor of Strategy and Organizational Behaviour, Aarhus University, Denmark Innovation especially EDI is widely recognised and accepted by organisations. The key challenge faced by many leaders is the difficulty of putting in place a pragmatic and sustainable system to support EDI. This book is a much-needed guide on how to translate aspirations into practice. Lee Kheng Hock, Senior Consultant, Deputy CEO (Education and Community Partnerships), SingHealth Community Hospitals, Singapore Innovation is widely recognised as key to vibrancy, growth and success of organisations. More so if it is embedded in the culture of organisations and imbued in all their employees. Accordingly, EDI should be sought after, but the key challenge faced by many leaders is the difficulty of putting in place a pragmatic and sustainable system to support EDI. This book is a much-needed guide on how to translate aspirations into practice. Cheong Hee Kiat, Professor, Founding President of Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS), Singapore
