Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the innovation process in technology-based industries through a unique framework that dissects it into a series of vital functions. These five functions, namely idea generation, entrepreneurship/championing, project leadership, gatekeeping, and sponsorship/coaching, form the backbone of effective innovation. The book challenges the traditional organizational structure of research and development, which often fails to account for these essential roles. It is argued that recognizing and fostering these roles can significantly enhance an organization's ability to drive successful innovation. The author presents case studies and empirical data to support the claim that innovation benefits from a balanced representation of these functions, with each function comprising distinct characteristics and skill sets. By understanding and implementing this framework, organizations can create a more supportive environment for innovation, increasing their chances of success in bringing new technologies to market.
