Design to Grow
Tomorrow's business winners need two things: scale and agility. The answer to both is design.
For over a century, The Coca-Cola Company has used design to scale its flagship brand to over 200 countries. And in recent years it has sustained that growth while becoming even more agile - something most established businesses struggle with.
In Design to Grow, Coca-Cola's vice president of Innovation and Entrepreneurship David Butler gives an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at Coca-Cola's design-led strategy for growth. He shows how any business can use the same approach to get to the next level.
Clear and actionable, this book is a must-read for leaders, creatives and entrepreneurs.
