Özet

Extending the debate on how to enable and manage innovation requires a discussion of the potential beneficial impact ofmanagementmodels and corresponding principles. In this paper, we draw on literature involving product innovativeness and management models to propose that product innovativeness is facilitated and influenced by practices and principles traceable in different management models. We test our hypotheses with data from a sample of high technology firms. Findings suggest that management models and principles have varying impacts on product innovativeness. Specifically, we found the principles of obliquity, emergence, and intrinsic motivation as significant enablers of product innovativeness, along with extrinsic motivation. Also, eachmanagementmodel differently impacted and fostered product innovativeness.
