Learning from broad experience with open innovation: how it works, who contributes to it, and arenas for innovation from manufacturing to education. In today's competitive globalized market, firms are increasingly reaching beyond conventional internal methods of research and development to use ideas developed through processes of open innovation (OI). Organizations including Siemens, Nokia, Wikipedia, Hyve, and innosabi may launch elaborate OI initiatives, actively seeking partners to help them innovate in specific areas. Individuals affiliated by common interests rather than institutional ties use OI to develop new products, services, and solutions to meet unmet needs. This volume describes the ways that OI expands the space for innovation, describing a range of OI practices, participants, and trends. The contributors come from practice and academe, and reflect international, cross-sector, and transdisciplinary perspectives. They report on a variety of OI initiatives, offer theoretical frameworks, and consider new arenas for OI from manufacturing to education.

Dienstleistungen tragen in Deutschland erheblich zur Wertschöpfung und Schaffung von Arbeitsplätzen bei. Die Generierung von innovativen Dienstleistungen bildet somit eine wesentliche Aufgabe für die Zukunft des Wirtschaftsstandorts Deutschland. Gefragt sind Konzepte für die Professionalisierung von Dienstleistungen und die Zukunft der Dienstleistungsarbeit, die hier von renommierten Autoren aus Wissenschaft und Praxis vorgestellt werden. Das Buch basiert in weiten Teilen auf empirischen Befunden des Förderschwerpunkts „Dienstleistungsqualität durch professionelle Arbeit“, der vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung gefördert wurde.

World population and the number of city dwellers are steadily growing. Globalization and digitalization lead to an increased competition for skilled and creative labor and other economic resources. This is true not only for firms, but increasingly also for cities. The book elaborates on resulting challenges and opportunities for urban management from the European perspective, and discusses theories, methods and tools from business economics to cope with them. Contributions in this volume come from scholars and practitioners of economics, business administration and urban management, and cover aspects ranging from urban dynamics to city marketing. They draw on experiences from several European cities and regions, and discuss strategies to improve city performance including Open Government, Smart City, cooperation and innovation. The book project was initiated and carried out by the Center for Advanced Studies in Management (CASiM), the interdisciplinary research center of HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management. It is addressed to scholars and managers in Europe and beyond, who will benefit from the scientific rigor and useful practical insights of the book.

In the current times of more frequent crises and ever shortening innovation cycles, the management of change has become a crucial task of survival. While it is not a new topic in business research, the developments of the last decade have posed many new challenges for the change management of firms and organizations and have thus also raised many new questions for academic research in business administration, which the present book turns to deepen. Its particular focus is on disruptive change including its driving forces as well as effective and sustainable management. This publication constitutes a collection of articles that discuss change and innovation processes across different sectors of the economy (industry, banking, and retail), the role of leadership and corporate governance for the effectiveness and sustainability of organizational change.

Management of Permanent Change

Kunden sind heute nicht nur passive Empfänger und Konsumenten einer vom Hersteller dominierten Wertschöpfung. Vielmehr gestalten viele Kunden Produkte und Dienstleistungen aktiv mit und übernehmen dabei sogar teilweise deren Entwicklung und Herstellung. Diese Wertschöpfungspartnerschaft führt zu neuen Formen der Arbeitsteilung, der Koordination und Organisation von Innovations- und Produktionsprozessen. Zur Organisation arbeitsteiliger Wertschöpfung gibt es bislang zwei wesentliche Alternativen: die hierarchische Koordination im Unternehmen oder die Nutzung des Marktmechanismus über Angebot und Nachfrage. Eine Zwischenform bilden die verschiedenen Varianten von Unternehmensnetzwerken. Die interaktive Wertschöpfung bildet eine dritte Alternative: die Arbeitsteilung zwischen Herstellerunternehmen und Kunden, die zum Wertschöpfungspartner werden. Reichwald/Piller behandeln Entwicklungen wie Peer-Production, Kundeninnovation, Open-Source-Software-Entwicklung, Kunden-Communities oder Web 2.0. Anhand vieler Beispiele und Fallstudien diskutieren sie die wesentlichen Prinzipien und Ansatzpunkte, aber auch die Grenzen der interaktiven Wertschöpfung. Open Innovation und Produktindividualisierung (Mass Customization) werden als konkrete Umsetzungsformen einer interaktiven Wertschöpfung anhand von Praxisbeispielen vorgestellt. "Interaktive Wertschöpfung" richtet sich an die Fachwelt in Wissenschaft und Praxis in den Bereichen Innovationsmanagement, strategisches Management, Organisation und Produktion. Prof. Dr. Prof. h. c. Dr. h. c. Ralf Reichwald ist Professor für Betriebswirtschaftslehre an der Fakultät für Wirtschaftswissenschaften und Inhaber des Lehrstuhls für Betriebswirtschaftslehre - Information, Organisation und Management (IOM) an der TU München. Dr. Frank Piller ist Privatdozent für Betriebswirtschaftslehre an der TU München und Research Fellow an der MIT Sloan School of Management, Cambridge, USA.

Interaktive Wertschöpfung

This book discusses current health care challenges and new strategies for innovative solutions in this area from an interdisciplinary perspective of health care management, business economics, and medicine. It presents the idea of a “boundaryless hospital”, a conceptual model of a patient-centric, value-based health network that overcomes typical sectorial, organizational, and geographical boundaries and offers greater efficiency and better quality outcomes for patients. Effective health care for a growing and aging population is a major challenge for economies all over the world. New breakthroughs in medical technology and pharmaceuticals as well as digitization provide scope for more efficiency and for a better quality of health care. Novel organization forms and management concepts are key for coping with the increasing cost pressure observed in most health care systems. The contributions in this volume present innovative strategies for developing and implementing the concept of a boundaryless hospital. They highlight experiences from various countries and with different treatments. The book project was initiated and carried out by the Center for Advanced Studies in Management (CASiM), the interdisciplinary research center of HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management for business administration in the 21st century.
