Cognition and Innovation
Guest Editor: Stefano Brusoni
ETH Zürich, Switzerland
This book will appear as the third volume in the recently launched New Horizons in Managerial and Organizational Cognition book series. Volume 1, Guest Edited by Anne S. Huff, addressed the topic of strategic uncertainty. Volume 2, Guest Edited by Gerard P. Hodgkinson, examined current methodological advances and challenges in MOC research. This third volume will comprise a collection of contributions that reflect the multiple emerging intersections between cognition and innovation studies.
Aims and Scope
Studies of the management of technology and innovation are often interdisciplinary in nature, coming at the problem from a variety of perspectives, including strategic, managerial, behavioral, and operational. The problem domain includes the management of innovation, technology strategy, research and development, information technologies, technology-based entrepreneurship, and the commercialization of scientific research. Behavioral theories of innovation have developed in multiple directions over the years, and it is the intention of this collection of articles to take stock and provide examples of new developments at the intersection of innovation studies, and studies of managerial and organizational cognition (MOC).
We encourage papers exploring the frontiers of socio-cognitive and socio-psychological research as it relates to innovation management, and innovation processes. Major topics of interest include attention, attribution, decision making, identity, ideology, information processing, creativity, learning, memory, mental representations and images, categories, cognitive frames, perceptual and interpretive processes, social construction, social dilemmas, and change.
Chapters selected for inclusion in this volume of New Horizons in Managerial and Organizational Cognition will offer variously state-of-the-art applications of MOC-related theories to the domains of innovation management as outlined above. We encourage critical reflection and theoretical or methodological advances. We are open to both conceptual and empirical work, and to both qualitative and quantitative work.
