Beschreibung

"Power of Post-it" uncovers the fascinating journey of how a laboratory accident at 3M became one of the world's most ubiquitous office tools, while revealing deeper insights about innovation and workplace productivity.



The book masterfully weaves together the story of Dr. Spencer Silver's 1968 discovery of a unique adhesive and its transformation into the iconic Post-it Note through a combination of corporate culture, scientific inquiry, and practical workplace needs. Through detailed research and corporate archives, the book explores three interconnected themes: the role of innovation culture in product development, the science of visual information processing, and how simple tools can dramatically impact workplace efficiency.



A particularly compelling aspect is 3M's progressive policy of allowing scientists to dedicate 15% of their time to personal projects, which created the environment where this "failed" experiment could eventually find its revolutionary application. The six-year journey from initial discovery to practical implementation serves as a powerful lesson in how transformative innovation often emerges from unexpected sources.



The book progresses logically from the scientific and corporate origins through to the product's influence on organizational behavior and modern workplace practices. By examining extensive corporate documentation, scientific research, and interviews with key figures, it offers valuable insights for business leaders and innovation managers while remaining accessible to general readers.



The analysis extends into the digital age, exploring how this simple paper tool has influenced the design of collaborative software and continues to shape our approach to information management and creative problem-solving.
