"Creativity for Innovation Management is a rigorous yet applied guide, which illustrates what creativity is, why it matters, and how it can be developed at both individual and group levels. Unlike many technique-oriented books, this book combines theory with practice, drawing on the latest research in psychology, organizational behaviour, innovation and entrepreneurship. The text provides a range of opportunities to explore innovative and creative processes and develop them via activities linked to relevant tools and techniques, as well as real-life case studies. By working through key competence areas at personal and then team levels, the book demonstrates to students how to build entrepreneurial practices, strong, innovative teams, and organisations that encourage and facilitate innovative thinking. This 2nd edition has been updated throughout, including a new chapter exploring the impact of emerging technologies on creativity, further material on human-centred design, crowdsourcing and collaboration platforms, and cross-cultural differences in innovation management. This textbook is ideal for postgraduate students of Innovation and Creativity and Entrepreneurship, as well as professionals who want to excel by developing and applying their own creativity at work. Online resources complement the book, with access to key tools, techniques, and activities, as well as supporting video and audio material and cases, support learning and teaching"--

"This innovative volume provides a comprehensive overview of improvisation as a pervasive organizational process, essential in ever-changing business environments. Exploring theories of organizational action as well as contemporary challenges, it highlights improvisation's rich potential in theory building and practice.

From the latest thinking on improvisation in organizations to future avenues for research, this volume demonstrates the rich potential for both theory building and practice, and provides a valuable resource for researchers and advanced students in organizational strategy, entrepreneurship, product development, information systems, disaster management, and HRM"--

It is often difficult to translate the findings of creativity and motivation researchers into language or activities that benefit end users. This is the problem driving the need for translational research, and this book fills the gap. It translates creativity and motivation research into language that teachers and their students, corporate trainers and their employees, and students' families or caregivers can immediately understand. Instructional modules and lesson plans provide readers with opportunities to network, give feedback, suggest new research needs, and access free assessments. Additional resources and opportunities for readers are available through the Freddie Reisman Center for Translational Research in Creativity and Motivation.
