Abstract
Innovation involves more than turning out high‐tech gadgets, and innovators are complex human beings of different backgrounds and all types. Unfortunately, innovation has hit a wall in the workplace because the human component has frequently been neglected. Organizations focus too much on the mechanics of innovation and not enough on the underlying people‐based principles. To promote innovation, leaders must first understand what drives it: people.
