The generally accepted definition of disruptive innovation is that of Clayton Christensen from his 1997 book “The Innovator’s Dilemma”. Christensen defined disruptive innovation as still a type of innovation but different from the more common types of sustaining and radical innovation. According to Christensen, disruptive innovations create value along a different dimension from existing offerings, and subsequently “disrupt” the incumbent companies, businesses and markets. Trying to create a definition of disruption separate from that of innovation will simply create more confusion on what is already a very crowded field of definitions of innovation.
