subject

description

Abstract In times of crisis the paradoxes that are inevitably linked to the innovation process become even more pronounced. After explaining some of the key innovation paradoxes we link them to the organization model that was developed by Edith Penrose. We learn that many of the paradoxes can be explained by the difficulty to balance entrepreneurship and management as organizations grow and evolve. Next we analyze why the vitality is gone in so many of our organizations, what should be done in order to restore the vitality and how new game leadership can contribute. Finally we look at how new game leadership has to be integrated in today's business and on the role that strategic leaders can play in order to restore the vitality, resolve the innovation paradoxes and boost the innovative power in organizations.
