CONCEPTUAL DEFINITIONS AND ANTECEDENTS OF ORGANIZATIONAL INNOVATIVENESS – A LITERATURE REVIEW

Organizational innovativeness is one of the key capabilities organizations need to develop in order to successfully compete on the global market. Being one of the key factors for organizational success, it has received a lot of attention in business research over the past decades. However, the conceptual definitions of organizational innovativeness as well as findings regarding the key antecedents of organizational innovativeness in different organizations are still ambiguous. In order to systematize recent findings, we conducted a literature review in which we included relevant research papers in the field. We detected two dominant research streams that use either dynamic capabilities or knowledge management as the theoretical lenses through which they observe organizational innovativeness. This paper helps identify key research areas and avenues for future research of organizational innovativeness. Our literature review also offers important insights for the conceptual definition of organizational innovativeness and analyses most common methods used in organizational innovativeness research.
