The container was a particularly disruptive innavation in that regard, but I agree that we really do need to be aware of how are innovations are most likely to meet resistance.

Sometimes the most boring, mundane and unexciting innovations can provide the greatest return. In reading this I found myself nodding and thinking "Yes, those shipping container guys clued in to what added value" Value can be created for customers by innovating in all sorts of ways - not just a faster/flatter/fancier device. It could be the the operational processes and internal/external relationships used to produce it, the channels through which it's sold, the positioning and branding, or even the underlying business model. Whatever satisfies a customer experience better than the status quo is a good thing. Great post and I wholeheartedly agree.
