Managing with communities for innovation, agility, and resilience
In these troubled times, the spontaneous responses from communities are multiple and impactful, supporting creative endeavors and fostering innovations for resilience.
This Management Focus section will analyze the dynamics of knowledge communities with respect to innovation, agility, and the resilience of organizations.
These informal communities act as various active units, with potentially different roles, at different stages of the innovation process.
Given the source of creativity provided by these new organizational forms, companies should establish a strong yet respectful relationship with them in order to harvest their creative outputs and nurture the organization's formal innovative processes, especially in times of crisis.
