“General Manager’s Perspective Integrating of managing innovation and the impacts of innovation upon organizations into a coherent whole still remains a significant challenge. They arise across the boundaries of functional organizations, in many ways.

An organization’s structure, the systems, and the formal and informal mechanisms powerfully influences the types of ideas that get surfaced, pushed forward, and surfaced, adopted.” ~  Burgleman, Robert, Christensen, Clayton, and Wheelwright, Steven (Strategic Management of Technology and Innovation, Irwin McGraw-Hill, 2008)
