  3. The Community Innovation Survey (CIS) of the EU defines a product innovation as “the market introduction of a new or significantly improved good or service with respect to its capabilities, user friendliness, components or sub-systems”. Likewise, a process innovation is defined as “the implementation of a new or significantly improved production process, distribution method, or support activity for your goods or services”.

  4. Criteria for the innovative project management aimed at development of an innovative (new) product or service (product or service innovation); employ innovative methods and approaches (process innovation); lead to improvement of innovative and learning capabilities of the project executor (organisational innovation); be realised in a close interaction with the project owner (user innovation).

  5. Positioning of innovation project management

  6. Description of types of innovation projects “Intensity” of innovation Imitation Incremental Innovation Radical Innovation A temporary endeavour undertaken to create a product or service, new to the customer / owner, but already existing somewhere on the market A temporary endeavour undertaken to create a product or service, as a substantial improvement of products or services already existing on the market A temporary endeavour undertaken to create a unique product or service, absolutely unique on the market Project goals and objectives Clearly defined Clearly defined More vague and broader Uncertainties Low level Medium level High level Industrial sectors High-tech Reverse engineering of an advanced technological product Improvements in existing high-tech products Breakthrough R&D in advanced high-tech Low-tech Imitation in low-tech sectors, low value added, minimum learning and innovative potential Slight improvement in low-tech products Radical change in lowtech products

  7. An innovative context? The type of structure used to manage innovation projects. The level of formality in that structure. Patterns of authority. Communication patterns. Organisation of work. Evaluation of outcomes.

  8. Illustration: Evaluation of Projects One company with a global presence and interviewed managers about processes for managing innovation projects (work without strict rules; using the global network). This means innovative projects can be started at any time and in any place.

  9. Rule Kanter's golden rules for stifling innovation Control everything carefully. Make sure people count anything that can be counted, frequently URR as a method of project evaluation relies heavily on the constant counting of people's time. One might argue that careful allocation of time can benefit innovation. And above all, never forget, that you, the higher-ups, already know everything about this business.

  10. Conclusions Innovation Projects The need for robust inter-communication among all the players and stakeholders, agile methods, a built in project performance assessment system, and who have an amazing finesse in people management. They are often more complex than usual projects, they need more flexible tools and approaches, and they likely need a different genre of leadership if they are to run smoothly and be successful. Well-trained project leaders are needed who profoundly understand the challenge, the project's techniques and tools, the inter-dependence of the team members; This will likely only be possible for mature and highly trained professionals with many years of experience and great personal security.
