Recent studies analyzed the experience of some large companies in setting up a dedicated team with the specific mission of conducting innovation management activities. Based on this analysis, innovation has been pointed to as a distinct and emerging organizational function. In this context, the central question posed in this study arises: what are the characteristics of such a function? Case studies were conducted in fifteen large industrial companies in Brazil that, except for two control cases, have established dedicated teams for innovation management activities. The analysis revealed key characteristics of the Innovation Function (IF), divided into six perspectives: general purpose, origins, legitimacy and guidance, people, assignments and future perspectives. The characterization of IF adds new elements to existing knowledge about how companies can build and maintain regular and systemic innovation capability. 2017 artículo científico 0103-6513 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=396751070004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3967/396751070004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3967/396751070004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3967/396751070004/396751070004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3967/396751070004/movil 10.1590/0103-6513.207316 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3967 Production application/pdf Associação Brasileira de Engenharia de Produção Production (Brasil) Vol.27 |
