Innovation Management:Conceptualization for Practice & Research

Present article endeavors to develop a conceptual framework of innovation management capability in which the outcomes of earlier research that appeared scanty have been synthesized. The proposed conceptualization is a multi-component construct which offers a broader framework of innovation management in organizations. The framework presented here will enable managers to focus on developing their innovation management capability (IMC) and help future researchers to design better their research projects on the theme of IMC. It is expected that organizations which consciously and systematically invest in analyzing the dimensions of managing innovation and enhancing their capability in such a matter have the likelihood of achieving the goal of innovation.
