Matthews, University of Cincinnati, US 'Managing innovation is undoubtedly key for success in the modern era, but is typically viewed through a few classic best-practices.

It is a well-worth and highly recommended read.' -- Jannis Angelis, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Research Institute of Industrial Economics, Sweden 'An environment and culture of innovation are key factors for companies to succeed in a highly competitive world. The importance of employees with the right mindset and skills plays a major role in this equation. This book provides very useful insights on the role of human resources management.' -- Daniel Zinner, Global Mobility Thought Leader and HR Management Consultant, Germany 'Innovation is the lifeblood of an organization.
