Rezensionen

"This is a well written and structured book and goes a long way to fulfilling its one stop shop objective. ... The book provides a roadmap, but they're the ones who will have to organize and enable the journey." (John Bessant, International Journal of Innovation Management, Vol. 24 (1), 2020)

"It's certainly ambitious - it claims to offer a 'one stop shop' for the fundamentals of innovation management best practices. And it is well grounded; the foundations are based on a literature review of over 2,000 pieces of research - a good cross-section of the traveller's experience we've accumulated over the past hundred years of trying to understand innovation management. ... it's full of helpful examples and, importantly, enabling tools, a valuable feature is the app, which is available to complement the book." (John Bessant, International Journal of Innovation Management, Vol. 24 (1), August 19, 2019)
