However, the crowdsourcing literature has thus far mainly focused on how to make decisions at each stage of the process, overlooking the alignment between crowdsourcing goals, decision making and project outcome satisfaction. To address this gap, our research conducted in-depth interviews with managers involved in crowdsourcing, triangulated with secondary data from real-life contests to provide a comprehensive analysis. Specifically, we empirically examine the influence of three types of crowdsourcing goals, namely, fishing, hunting and collective production; on decision making at each stage of the crowdsourcing process, that is, ideation, selection, implementation and evaluation. We additionally observe how the alignment between crowdsourcing goals and decision making affects managers' perception and evaluation of the crowdsourcing initiative. We thus contribute to the crowdsourcing and innovation management literature by investigating project-related crowdsourcing decision making in line with predefined crowdsourcing goals and provide a blueprint for managers toward a more effective project management style.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47923,"journal":{"name":"Creativity and Innovation Management","volume":"34 2","pages":"500-518"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143902861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In supporting new digital innovation, an organization will inevitably be affected on the level of strategy, business design and operation. In this paper, we explore games' potential as one approach for building digital innovation capacity in an organization since games have been proven beneficial in early innovation and learning processes. Theoretically, we focus on ‘building digital innovation capacity.’ This is understood as a process where the knowledge about digitalization and digital transformation is used to strengthen individuals' skills, abilities and opportunities—knowledge that can be used as a source for organizational learning and development. In this paper, we explore and discuss the role of games in building capacity for digital innovation in established organizations through an empirical study consisting of four game sessions with the game Cards for IoT. Overall, this game study implies three important themes concerning games' role in building capacity for digital innovation in established organizations: gameplay & facilitation, player mindset and contextualization. The perspectives, nuances and insights of the themes are discussed with the literature on capacity building.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47923,"journal":{"name":"Creativity and Innovation Management","volume":"34 2","pages":"486-499"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143902796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, how to take the first step towards the circular transition? This study answers such a meaningful question by delving into innovation management to support the implementation of CE in businesses. In detail, the present research addresses the nexus between green innovation and CE in economic organisations, besides observing the adoption of open innovation strategies. Green innovation, understood as a learning process through adopting novel practices, technologies or products, has been associated with CE implementation, although their effective relationship has typically been overlooked or assumed. On the other hand, open innovation may further accelerate circular-oriented innovation, encompassing a collaborative approach where companies leverage external ideas and technologies. Using covariance-based structural equation modelling on a sample of 318 European companies, our study examines the interplay between such phenomena. We find that green product and process innovation enable companies to acquire essential resources to implement CE practices, especially when relying upon open innovation mechanisms. As a result, this study demonstrated the synergic adoption of these innovation strategies, offering new insights based on generalisable claims. Building on the resource-based view of the firm, we substantiate the importance of environmental awareness and stakeholders' engagement in innovation processes, as a strategic approach to acquire critical resources and knowledge that facilitate the CE implementation. Accordingly, the article delivers practical recommendations for managerial figures by underlining how to harness innovation management to move their first steps towards the CE transition.","PeriodicalId":47923,"journal":{"name":"Creativity and Innovation Management","volume":"34 2","pages":"466-485"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/caim.12647","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143902853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although they can provide significant economic and societal benefits, managers often prefer premium innovations to affordable innovations. To understand the factors that lead managers to reject affordable innovations, we hypothesize several antecedents at the individual, firm, and product levels to the individual affordable innovation rejection attitude. We conduct a cross-national study and test a structural equation model with 319 participants from Germany, the United States, and South Africa. The results show that individual innovativeness plays a central but contradictory role in managers' attitudes toward affordable innovation. While general innovativeness leads to positive attitudes toward affordable innovation, technological innovativeness drives rejection of affordable innovation. Individual perceptions of firm-level and product-level factors are also important. Individuals' rejection of affordable innovation in managerial contexts in turn leads to lower investment in affordable innovation projects. We corroborate and enrich these findings also in a qualitative follow-up study. With this research, we contribute to the literature on innovation management by explaining the conditions under which managers reject affordable innovations.","PeriodicalId":47923,"journal":{"name":"Creativity and Innovation Management","volume":"34 2","pages":"443-465"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/caim.12648","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143902874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

University campuses are ideal places for living labs, and many universities use such arrangements for various experiments in relation to sustainable future initiatives. Despite the popularity of the living lab concept, much remains unclear about their ways of operation and their potential to innovate. This study aims to show some of the current challenges of on-campus living labs involved with experiments concerning the energy transition. A total of six different living labs were examined based on semistructured interviews with different stakeholders ranging from researchers to operational staff members. Our results show several internal and external challenges, such as the living lab set-up and multiple operational challenges concerning administration, coordination and governance. More external challenges include the overall embeddedness of living labs within the more traditional organizational structure of the university and the tensions between academic and operational processes. Despite these challenges, we conclude that a university campus is still a fruitful place for living labs to cocreate and innovate. By creating awareness and understanding of the challenges living labs face, future initiatives may be facilitated better so that campus living labs are able to unlock their potential to innovate and contribute to societal challenges sooner rather than later.","PeriodicalId":47923,"journal":{"name":"Creativity and Innovation Management","volume":"34 2","pages":"427-442"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/caim.12649","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143902873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our research, informed by insights from individual perceptions of climate and social cognition, introduces and examines a robust theoretical framework for comprehending the ways in which remote workers foster digital creativity within a virtual work environment. Utilizing this framework, we hypothesized about the correlation between a virtual work climate and digital creativity. To test our hypothesis, we embarked on an empirical study that involved a two-stage survey, resulting in 331 valid responses. The findings reveal a positive correlation between the virtual work climate and digital creativity. Furthermore, we discovered that remote work self-efficacy plays a role in partially mediating this relationship. The data also indicates that a proactive personality not only strengthens the connection between the virtual work climate and digital creativity but also enhances the link between the virtual work climate and remote work self-efficacy. Intriguingly, a proactive personality also intensifies the mediating role of remote work self-efficacy in the relationship between the virtual work climate and digital creativity. These insights shed light on the specific processes and conditions that amplify digital creativity among employees via a virtual work climate. We suggest that organizations can significantly boost the digital creativity of their remote workforce by cultivating a supportive virtual work climate.","PeriodicalId":47923,"journal":{"name":"Creativity and Innovation Management","volume":"34 2","pages":"378-392"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143902860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
