Reviews / Votes
'This Encyclopedia provides a much-needed impetus that reframes debates around innovation and innovation management in ways that are more inclusive and relevant to the global challenges we face today. It is comprehensive and well thought out in the topics that are covered, and provides an up-to-date conceptual vocabulary for anyone interested in making sense of an increasingly complex innovation landscape. A valuable resource for scholars and practitioners alike!' -- Simcha Jong, University College London, UK 'This Encyclopedia presents the cutting-edge discourse on innovation management from a variety of dimensions and perspectives which are of relevance to the academic community in the fields of business and organizational studies as well as public management and governance. The editors have skillfully arranged the diversity of the topics into five concise parts to give a clear understanding of precedents, processes, outcomes, and teaching methods of innovation to the reader.' -- Raminta Pucetaite, Kaunas University of Technology, Lithuania 'This Encyclopedia is different from the rest: A masterful bringing together of diverse range of concepts in innovation management and in the process redefining and expanding its scope! Topics range from artificial intelligence, diversity and equity, radical creativity, emotions in innovation, gender, sustainability, circular economy, and leadership, just to give a few examples. This thoughtfully put together collection is indeed a one-stop resource for tools, theories, and approaches for what's the latest and most promising in innovation management from a global perspective.' -- Tojo Thatchenkery, George Mason University, USA 'This unique Encyclopedia of Innovation Management offers a wide spectrum of quality entries in innovation scholarship. It not only touches on the scientific and technological side of innovation but also the creative side of it. The Encyclopedia comprehensively covers gender issues, power dynamics, and value creation. It also sheds light on the ethical, socially conscious, sustainable, and human aspects of innovation. For a scholar of philosophy, the Encyclopedia also discusses new theories, philosophies and methods being attempted by scholars to advance knowledge in Innovation literature. An excellent scholarly work that inspires readers to engage in deep reflection and meaningful dialogue.' -- Reeti Kulshrestha, Birla Institute of Management Technology, IndiaMore details
