Smith deserves credit for focusing on the "how" rather than just the "what." Many innovation texts focus on the ideation phase—the "Eureka!" moment.

He discusses the "valley of death" where many good ideas die due to a lack of resources or internal support, providing frameworks for governance and funding that help bridge this gap.
