Humanity's progress stems from a persistent sense that our current experiences are never quite satisfactory, driving a belief that something better must exist. This quest for improvement is fueled by innovation, which embodies the realization of "the New." Our faith in progress often leads us to assume that all innovations are inherently beneficial. However, the term "innovation" has become overused, especially in management discourse, where it is seen as the key to enhancing competitiveness and profitability. Yet, amidst this enthusiasm, critical questions arise: What is the true utility of progress? What value does "the New" hold? Does innovation genuinely improve conditions, or does it merely alter them? This book aims to introduce a new quantitative measure to evaluate the worth of innovation, termed InnovationQuality, or InQ. The authors—Werner G. Faix, Jens Mergenthaler, Rolf-Jurgen Ahlers, and Michael Auer—explore the interconnectedness of innovation and quality, examining the fundamental question of what value "the New" truly brings to society.
