How did Christensen develop his theories?
My approach was always to start with puzzling anomalies in the business world that existing theories couldn't adequately explain. I then embarked on extensive empirical research, collecting data across numerous industries to identify a consistent causal pattern. By observing what worked and why across diverse contexts, I could build a robust theoretical framework that explained these phenomena and offered actionable insights for practitioners facing similar challenges.
