Innovation is seen as key to sustained competitiveness, but innovation without capturing knowledge about the process of innovation and change may not improve an organisation's ability to innovate in future! |
This workshop brings researchers and practitioners together to review the potential impact that the tools and techniques emerging from the EPSRC's Systems Engineering for Business Process Change and the ESRC's Innovation Programme might have on the sustainable competitiveness of organisations. Issues that are common to many of the research projects will be reviewed as the presentations proceed and include:
- Competitiveness and Sustainability
- Communicating knowledge across "experience" boundaries and organisational contexts
- Levering knowledge through learning: Monolithic vs. Light initiatives
- ICT versus Social Networks
Plenary sessions will be used to review the contributions
and help identify future research questions.
