Another paper accepted in a SSCI indexed journal
International Journal of Information Management just accepted another paper I have coauthored:
Jaka Lindiè, Peter Baloh, Vincent Ribiere, Kevin C Desouza: Deploying Information Technologies for Organizational Innovation: Lessons from Case Studies.
Abstract: Organizations must innovate if they are to survive in today’s fiercely competitive marketplace. In this paper, we explore how leading organizations are using emerging technologies to enable novel forms of ideation that can radically increase the sheer volume of ideas they explore. In addition, we outline how organizations use technologies to cost effectively manage this increased volume of ideas by optimizing generation, mobilization, advocacy and screening, experimentation, commercialization, and even the diffusion and implementation of ideas. Critical to this is the management of knowledge during the innovation process.
The paper is coming out in April 2011 issue of IJIM. Thanx to the coauthoring team, to the journal’ case editor Prof Dr Ray Hackney, reviewers who provided plentiful and meaningful comments, and the editor Prof Dr Philip J Hills.
