Why is it important?

Most organisations overlook the importance of the human factor of workplace innovation. They find it too difficult. But the people factor is more and more determining your success.

Perspectives

If you want implementation of technological innovation to be successful, you should consider the social and organisational elements that help to embed this innovation or block it. Our research provided evidence that companies that pay attention to workplace innovation perform better and have more satisfied employees.
