Determinants of Technical Success in Product Development When Innovative Radicalness Is Considered
研究了韩国项目负责人数据,发现当技术创新激进时,项目冠军的存在对技术成功至关重要,而高层支持、研发生产财务能力及开发阶段信息获取也影响成功,但激进程度对关系影响不大。
Mushin Lee and Dohyeong Na present their analysis of data obtained from Korean project leaders in order to investigate the relationships between various factors and technical project success. When the radicalness of technical innovativeness is employed as a contingency variable, the result shows that existence of a champion is critical if the innovativeness is radical. Top management's support, R&D, production, and financial capabilities, and information acquisition during the development stage are related to the success, but there is no indication that the radicalness heavily affects the relationships. Information acquisition during the idea generation stage is not important for both radical and incremental improvement projects.
