| Omschrijving |
The development of successful new products, processes and/or services is a challenge for many companies. Innovation processes are complex, and many stakeholders within and outside the company are involved. In this course the management of innovation is being taught, approaching the subject from different perspectives: strategy, management & organization, marketing, knowledge, etc. The book that is used in the course gives input for an academic approach as well as for more practical applications. Most of the theory will be treated in the first three lectures. This part is finalized with a written (MC) exam in the fourth course week about 9 chapters of the book and selected academic papers that are also used for the cases (see below). In the second part of the course students will work in groups on case studies from industries to illustrate how theory is being used in practice. They will be supported by parts of the book and the academic papers mentioned. |
