Organizational innovativeness

Organizational innovativeness has been a central topic of inquiry in multiple disciplines, including management, strategy, entrepreneurship, political science, and marketing. This chapter integrates research pertaining to organizational innovativeness from these disciplines and discusses the antecedents to, characteristics of, and outcomes of innovativeness as studied under WP3, both quantitatively and qualitatively. In so doing, the document develops a nomological network of public sector innovativeness.

The goal of this model is to suggest possible antecedents to, characteristics of, and outcomes of organizational innovativeness in the public sector.
