Product Description

Product Description

Managing Innovation provides readers with the knowledge to understand, and the skills to manage, innovation at the operational and strategic levels. Specifically, it integrates the management of market, organizational and technological change to improve the competitiveness of firms and effectiveness of other organizations. The management of innovation is inherently interdisciplinary and multifunctional and Tidd, Bessant & Pavitt provide an integrative approach to the subject.
  • Two new perspectives are introduced through which to re–examine material presented in each chapter: sustaining versus disruptive innovation (a greater emphasis will be placed on disruptive innovation) and organizations versus networks (greater discussion of the network issues raised in each chapter).
  • Provides more treatment of innovation in services.
  • Greater internationalization of case examples will be provided e.g. more examples will be included from Asia and Latin America.
  • Introduces discussion of the relationship between innovation and the environment.


From the Back Cover

Managing Innovation is an established best–selling text for MBA, MSc and advanced undergraduate courses on management of technology, innovation management and entrepreneurship. It is also widely used by managers in both the service and manufacturing sectors. Now in its third edition, Managing Innovation continues to offer a complete framework for thinking about innovation across technological, market and organizational perspectives, while integrating the latest developments in the management of innovation field. Building on extensive user feedback, the revised edition features new globally–focused case illustrations, expanded discussion of contemporary issues in innovation and improved online lecturer support.

"Managing Innovation masterfully synthesizes the extensive literature on this extremely complex, often fragmented topic. The book is enlivened by real–world examples from all over the globe and from a wide variety of industries; it serves as a comprehensive reference for academics as well as a practical guide for managers."
—Dorothy A. Leonard, William J. Abernathy Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School

"This book has established itself as a leading textbook in its field. Among its most important strengths is the way innovation is analyzed from many perspectives. Issues and challenges are scrutinized. Resources, organization, and processes are discussed in great detail. The important context for understanding innovation is explored at macro as well as micro levels. In this new edition the authors have integrated important contemporary issues such as the power of networks for innovation and radical disruptive innovation. Since the pedagogical strengths and support in terms of cases and web support have been developed the book qualifies as a leading textbook even more clearly."
—Christer Karlsson, Professor of Innovation and Operations Management, Dean CBS Executive MBA, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark

"In the knowledge society we live in today, the continuous creation of knowledge is the only way for an organization to survive. Managing Innovation concisely and precisely explains how an organization can keep innovating within and across the organizational boundary, and how such innovation affects the organization and society. With many examples, it is easy to read and understand. Excellent and a must–read for anyone who wants to learn about innovation."
—Professor Jiro Nonaka, JAIST (Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology), Japan

An extensive website accompanies this text.  Readers can browse an online database of case study material amd lecturers will find additional support material, including further exercises, presentation slides and lecture plans.

4.0 out of 5 stars Recommended for all who are interested in innovation managem, 15 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This book review is a summary of a review published in 'Research Policy', Vol. 27, No.2, June 1998, 229-231

The publication by Joe Tidd, John Bessant and Keith Pavitt on "Managing Innovation - Integrating Technological, Market and Organizational Change" is clearly a book which is interdisciplinary, multifunctional and integrative and adds value. The rich knowledge of the three authors is based on own research, consulting and teaching experiences at Imperial College Management School at the University of London, the Centre for Research in Innovation Management at the University of Brighton and the Science Policy Research Unit at the University of Sussex. These own experiences and the broad analysis of the "classical" and latest management research make the book very valuable...

"Managing Innovation" wants to equip readers with the knowledge to understand and skills to manage innovation, both at the operational and strategic level. The book aims to integrate the management of market, technological and organizational change to improve the competitiveness of firms and effectiveness of other organizations. Although a large number of differing theoretical approaches are reviewed and regarded by the authors, the theoretical roots lie very much in economies of innovation and the evolutionary economics (for instance, Dosi, Freeman, Nelson and Winter, Pavitt, Penrose), theories on organizational learning and knowledge creation (e.g. Argyres, Leonard-Barton, Nonaka and Takeuchi, or Schein) and competence-based theories of the firm (e.g. Hamel and Prahalad, or Teece and Pisano). One important value-added of the book is the integration of various theoretical approaches - each of which is subject to lively discussion among management researchers and practitioners - which in the past have stood alone and for themselves...The overall structure of the book is clear, the given boxes and examples very illustrative and the hints on further reading very helpful and, all in all, serves the needs of both the targeted management students and practitioners...The broad use and review of literature in the field of innovation management and the illustrative examples make this book a rewarding read for management practitioners, students and researchers. This book is warmly recommended for all who are interested in innovation management. - Prof. Dr. Guido Reger, University of Applied Sciences, Brandenburg, Germany.

4.0 out of 5 stars a few comments..., 7 Feb 2008
By Escravo (Brighton, UK) - See all my reviews
I usually don't review but when I saw Corhonen's bullcrap I had to comment. I am taking Tidd's course and nobody is forced to buy the book. I didn't buy it. Essential readings are available for free at the university anyway. This is absolute nonsense... If you really think someone will fail you (in the UK educational system) cause you don't buy his book, and there is nothing you can do about it but buy the book, you are simply foolish.

The book is good exactly _because_ it explains complex concepts in an uncomplicated, straightforward way and enables the reader to grasp the most important notions quickly and thoroughly. There is a number of key studies that show how the processes explained in the book are applied in the real world.

So yeah, in my opinion, if the reader is looking for a classical academic piece with extremely complex notions that are never used in everyday or business language but sound "smart", quantitative analyses of data just for the sake of analysis with results you can't use, and with examples that can never be applied to the real world, buy something else.

And I apologise to everyone reading this but I must resort to the lowest action of all in written debate - an ad hominem attack, although a well deserved one. Hey Chris, if you really think any crucial managerial insight can be gained by watching a TV programme aimed to entertain the general public, like the Dragon's Den, then it is obvious you didn't read the book. Oh, and that you watch TV way too much.
