Extensive research and theory has focused on organizational innovation and the organizational factors that influence that innovation. Research on teams has highlighted a similar set of factors as important for team innovation. However, these literatures have not provided a clear picture of the key factors that influence the collaborative idea exchange processes that occur in teams and organizations. The literature on collaborative ideation has provides a useful theoretical and empirical basis for understanding these processes and the conditions required for optimizing creativity in group interactions. We provide the theoretical and empirical basis for a pragmatic approach to enhancing collaborative innovation processes in various organizational settings and highlight additional research needs and future directions.
大量的研究和理论都聚焦于组织创新以及影响该创新的组织因素。关于团队的研究也强调了一组类似的因素对团队创新很重要。然而,这些文献并未清晰地呈现出影响团队和组织中发生的协作式想法交流过程的关键因素。关于协作构思的文献为理解这些过程以及在群体互动中优化创造力所需的条件提供了有用的理论和实证基础。我们为在各种组织环境中增强协作创新过程的务实方法提供了理论和实证基础,并突出了其他研究需求和未来方向。
