1. How has 3M’s innovation process evolved since the company was founded? Why‚ if at all‚ does 3M known as a "hothouse" of innovation‚ need to regain its historic closeness to the customer? First‚ they discover their first product by accident. Technician bypass purchasing agents in order to better understand product needs. Walked into factories and workplaces and talk directly to workers. Then‚ one developer discovered some success ignoring company order. Causing the attitude. It is better

ALLIANZE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICAL SCIENCES Physics Lab Experiment Geometrical Optics Name : INTRODUCTION Friction is a force (measured in Newtons) acting along the surfaces of two objects in physical contact that impedes the relative motion of these objects (the motion of one with respect to the other). As such‚ it can be said that friction always acts opposite the motion of the object or the force applied. There are two main types of friction: Static friction: the frictional

technology has had an exponential growth through the modern telecommunication systems. Particularly‚ optical fiber communication plays a vital role in the development of high quality and high-speed telecommunication systems. Today‚ optical fibers are not only used in telecommunication links but also used in the Internet and Local area networks (LAN) to achieve high signaling rates. What is fiber optic communication? Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to

3M’s rhythm of change: 3M started as a mining and manufacturing company but soon developed into and moving toward technological innovations and products an example of steady rejuvenation. This kind of change was continuous throughout the life cycle of the company. The change started when a young book keeper named William L.McKnight took the place of 3M’s sales manager and observed the quality problems with company’s products. He started with a systematic change which eventually took effort after
