Abstract
Organizational innovation is defined as the adoption of an idea or behavior that is new to the organization or to the relevant market sector. It is the actualization of technology or new administrative practices in terms of new products, which include tangible products and intangible services, or new processes, which include direct production or service delivery processes and support operations, in an organization. While diversified concepts of innovation are examined, a generic framework for managing organizational innovation is established to portray the notion in a methodical approach. The framework includes the core value and critical factors of successful organization innovation management. Substantiation of the framework has been carried out in Hong Kong and China in past few years. The framework is also further expanded to the development of an assessment scheme for organizational innovation. After assessing the current organizational innovation management systems and practices of the organization with the aid of a computer-aided assessment system, the organization could formulate improvement actions according to the identified strength and weakness in order to enhance the organizational innovation management of the company up to a competitive level. This presentation aims to give an overview of the underlying concepts and approaches of this framework and assessment scheme, as well as a proposed way to implement organizational innovation management in a company.
