The Multiple Aspects of Innovative Project Management: Linking Theory and Practice

Innovation is a strategic topic because it is one of the most effective ways to deal with the economic crisis and to stimulate growth. Innovation management is defined as “a set of interrelated or interacting elements of an organization to establish innovation policies and objectives as well as processes to achieve those objectives” (CEN/TS 16555-1:2013-07). One of those elements is the development of projects.

This book offers a global and transversal overview of all the aspects of innovation project management, by articulating different streams of thought and practices; by considering the larger context of the organization in which innovation management takes place and also collaboration management between various organizations.
