Do Companies that Practice Continuous Improvements and
Continuous Innovation
Outperform those that Practice Only One?
Hofstra University, Zarb School of Business
Hempstead, NY 11549
Innovation has been identified as key to the success of modern corporations. The
success of companies such as Apple, Proctor and Gamble, and Toyota is a testament
to the belief in continuous innovation.
Customers favor companies that can provide them with products that outperform competitor’s
products, are on the cutting edge of technology, and are different. We propose to
show that companies who practice continuous innovation and continuous improvements
always tend to do better than those that just practice one.
