This theory was published in famous book known as “Innovation and Entrepreneurship”
in order to evaluate various sources of innovative opportunities. They are described below:
The Unexpected- The business is full of unexpectation which can provide success as
well as failure to organisation for inspiring innovation. This can help innovators and leaders to
take advantage of opportunities.
Incongruities- This means organisation produce new product without doing research for
their customers. This source of innovation concentrate on what should be presented in the market

instead of what is currently present. Ethnic Restro to do proper analysis of market in order to
know about their consumer's taste and preferences.
Process Need- This phase of innovation means to focus on task rather than situation.
Ethnic Restro can come up with such idea after looking into process and identifying weak point
of organisation and finds ways to improve it. After finding weak points, organisation can create
innovative solutions to problems.
Industry and Market Structure Change- The industry and market structure is changing
due to change in technology. Here, leaders should keep eyes on changes and grab these as
opportunities. This can help Ethnic Restro to know about market and industry for running their
business in hotel sector.
