Course Contents:
This lecture covers informal and individual aspects of innovation. The overcoming of innovation barriers and the implementation of innovations in a business or a market requires creativity and strong commitment of individual persons. Especially informal factors of the corparate culture, collaboration and leadership are of great importance aside from formal structures and processes. Therefore, in the class the nature of innovation initiatives as well as barriers are fathomed and different role models of innovators (promotors, champions, boundary spanners, etc.) are introduced. Furthermore, organizational and management related vectors on individual creativity are covered, which are of great improtance, especially in early innovation stages. Finally, the cooperation of cross-functional innovation teams will be focussed.
Note that this lecture must be combined with "Strategic Technology and Innovation Management", which is offered in the first half of the semester - both lectures are necessary components of the module "Advanced Technology and Innovation Management" and cannot be examined individually.
