Abstract: Abstract Management innovations and new concepts may develop in various ways: One possibility is that theoreticians develop and suggest something new which – if it is found to be practicable – is adopted by practitioners and applied in their daily business activities. But more often innovation in business and management emerges “backwards”: A new method or concept arises in everyday practice, and some time later it will be noticed by the academics, to be reinterpreted conceptually and enhanced.
