Recenzii
'The authors provide an exemplary case combining academic rigour and practitioner experience and concerns. They help us towards an understanding of the complexities of creativity at the level of the modern organization and its location within the broader field of organization theory. The treatment helps us re-appraise the nature and role of leadership and organizational rationalities. The book will be welcomed by practitioners, researchers and students of management alike.' - Tudor Rickards, Professor of Creativity and Organizational Change, University of Manchester, UK
'An important contribution to the development of management practices in the context of complexity and creativity. In a world of constantly increasing volatility and uncertainty there is a need for better understanding of how leadership, structural preconditions and technology can enhance organizational creativity.' - Bo Rex, Chairman of the board, Soul Business Innovation Group, Sweden
'Managing Creativity in Organizations: Critique and Practices, offers a solid framework for anyone trying to get beyond the widely held assumptions about creativity. From a practitioner perspective, the authors offer an intriguing synthesis of valid concepts and hypotheses to use when assessing creativity at an individual or organizational level. The discussions are very useful to inspire management in science/technology-based corporations to reflect upon how we as leaders impact on several dimensions ofcreativity. Obtaining a proper balance between productivity driven by process improvements, technical expertize and exploring organizational creativity, as a competitive edge is a delicate mission in Pharmaceutical companies.' - Mikael Dolsten, Head of Corporate Pharma Research, Boehringer-Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals Inc, USA
'Today, managing creativity in organizations is a decisive factor to remain successful in R&D intensive industries. Being able to keep focus on the business while at the same time nurturing organizational creativity demands mature leadership. I firmly believe this book makes an important contribution to industry. It offers practical guidance combined with rich illustrations of the complexity of perspectives involved when managing creativity in organizations.' - Anna Käll, Head Business Management, Pfizer, Sweden
'This book presents a clearly written, extensive survey of research about many aspects that bridge the areas of organizational creativity and organizational theory. It convincingly argues for the existence and practical impact of an organizational creativity that integrates critique, with practices such as technology, intuition, leadership, and strategy etc. In a world where technological developments are demanding ever faster innovations, and where globalization is making markets and organizations more and more complex, to understand the critique and practices of organizational creativity has become critical.' - Marcus Selart,Norwegian School of Economics & Business Administration, Norway
'This book brings the very important aspect of organizational creativity on the table. It feels refreshing in a corporate world filled of processes and risk reducing procedures slowly killing innovation and future success. The role of managerial aspects for creativity and creative organisations needs to be put on the managerial agenda. A good start is to read this thought provoking book' - Hans Glise, Senior Vice-President, NovoNordisk
'It has often been assumed that large organization are not very creative and rather bureaucratic and slow in relation to decision-making etc. In AstraZeneca Discovery, we have been working very hard to ensure that creativity, flexibility and capturing opportunities can also be the hallmarks for a productive big pharma organization.
