Business and management approaches to innovation tend to focus on incremental changes to existing products and processes, such as new product development, design-thinking, and business model innovation. In contrast, Radical Innovation Challenges focusses on radical and breakthrough innovation, and identifies its distinct sources, organization, processes, and outcomes. This book illustrates conceptual models and practical methods to better understand and manage radical innovation, and provides an argument for an iterative coupling process, between knowledge-push and demand-pull challenges and opportunities.The book draws upon a distinct interdisciplinary body of knowledge to provide a crucial insight into the latest research and experience, and demonstrates how radical innovation practices and policies can be applied to fundamental corporate and social challenges such as climate change.

This book outlines how network technology can support, foster and enhance the Knowledge Management, Sharing and Development (KMSD) processes in professional environments through the activation of both formal and informal knowledge flows. Understanding how ICT can be made available to such flows in the knowledge society is a factor that cannot be disregarded and is confirmed by the increasing interest of companies in new forms of software-mediated social interaction. The latter factor is in relation both to the possibility of accelerating internal communication and problem solving processes, and/or in relation to dynamics of endogenous knowledge growth of human resources.The book will focus specifically on knowledge flow (KF) processes occurring within networked communities of professionals (NCP) and the associated virtual community environments (VCE) that foster horizontal dynamics in the management, sharing and development of fresh knowledge. Along this line a further key issue will concern the analysis and evaluation techniques of the impact of Network Technology use on both community KF and NCP performance. - The proposal of a taxonomy of Network Technology uses to support formal and informal knowledge flows - Analyses how Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 technology is deeply modifying the dynamics connected to KF and KM - Discusses dynamics underlying horizontal KF sharing processes within NCP
