Innovation and the Subjective Conditions for Innovative Capability

Matthias Trier

A chapter in Enabling Innovation, 2011, pp 233-242 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Innovations are not only restricted to economical spheres; one can find them in almost every social domain. They are not only inventions and discoveries but also include social valuation and utilization, especially the estimation of consequences. The social intercourse with innovation is an important feature of business culture. Conducive conditions for innovations are created by social networking of groups, organizations and civic action groups. Innovations mostly arise by continuity in the development of products, technologies or organization through focusing on developing trends. The subjective conditions for the ability to create innovations are based on dispositions in the regulation of action of the actors with special focus on knowledge, competences and values. They develop at their best through qualified work and other social and individual actions in a social environment that supports learning and further activities.
