Presentation
For almost all organizations, continuous innovation is the key to long-term success and sustainability. The purpose of this course is to examine how managers can facilitate organizational innovation. A specific emphasis is placed on discussing how digital technology can disrupt, enhance, and even stifle innovation activities. To gain a deeper understanding of how management can respond to disruptive innovations, a number of case studies will be presented and critiqued. Emerging innovation management concepts such as ‘open innovation’ and ‘user innovation communities’ will be assessed along with the potential for emerging digital technologies within these paradigms.
