Abstract

Although the number of studies on innovation and teams has increased significantly, there is still a paucity of consolidated understanding of how innovations emerge within a team. Prior reviews at the intersection of innovations and teams have not explored the network implications for innovation, thus warranting a literature review to provide avenues for further research. This study systematically reviews 93 articles on networks and innovative teams published in management journals over the last 30 years. Adopting a network lens, we propose to analyze our findings through four themes to address the essential characteristics of innovation: network characteristics, network team characteristics, network team management, and network flow. A research agenda is discussed, focusing on the various opportunities for research around innovative teams' space, time, and disrupted contexts.

创新团队网络的系统文献综述:当前趋势与未来研究途径

尽管关于创新和团队的研究数量显著增加，但对于团队中创新是如何产生的，仍然缺乏统一的理解。先前关于创新和团队交叉的综述并没有探讨网络对创新的影响，因此需要文献综述来为进一步的研究提供途径。本研究系统回顾了近30年来发表在管理期刊上的93篇关于网络和创新团队的文章。采用网络视角，我们建议通过网络特征、网络团队特征、网络团队管理和网络流动四个主题来分析我们的发现，以解决创新的基本特征。讨论了研究议程，重点是围绕创新团队的空间、时间和中断环境进行研究的各种机会。

期刊介绍： The European Management Journal (EMJ) stands as a premier scholarly publication, disseminating cutting-edge research spanning all realms of management. EMJ articles challenge conventional wisdom through rigorously informed empirical and theoretical inquiries, offering fresh insights and innovative perspectives on key management themes while remaining accessible and engaging for a wide readership. EMJ articles embody intellectual curiosity and embrace diverse methodological approaches, yielding contributions that significantly influence both management theory and practice. We actively seek interdisciplinary research that integrates distinct research traditions to illuminate contemporary challenges within the expansive domain of European business and management. We strongly encourage cross-cultural investigations addressing the unique challenges faced by European management scholarship and practice in navigating global issues and contexts.
