题 目：Error management and Innovation inorganizations

内容介绍

Given the continuous changes in the marketplace, firms need to be innovative in order to remain competitive. There are many ways for firms to maintain or enhance its innovativeness, one of it has to do with error management. There has been increasingly more evidence from both academia and industry suggesting that errors have the potential to stimulate learning and innovation by making people more aware of their actions and their environment. .Also, it is impossible not to encounter errors and setbacks if a firm is looking to be innovative. Oftentimes, failures and errors are an inherent part of innovation, especially when firms explore in “new and unchartered territory”.

Although research has established a link between learning from errors and innovation, important questions remain unanswered: If firms need to learn valuable lessons from previous errors and failures so that they can innovate, how are they supposed to do it? What processes and activities are involved in such learning? How do these processes affect innovation? We aim to address these questions in this paper.
