“The Determinants of the Number, Novelty & Usefulness of Ideas in Innovation Teams with Disciplinary Diversity”

 

Abstract:

Prior research on the determinants of the number, novelty and value of ideas offered in teams has proceeded much in a specific theory silo, piecemeal fashion. In this project, assuming disciplinary diversity in innovation-driven teams, I propose a theoretical framework which starting from intent (try to achieve a certain goal/challenge) proceeds to the outcomes mentioned through the intermediate roles of incentives, methods/tools mandated, taught or at hand and, in particular, the degree and type of interaction.
