English | Apr 24, 2015 | ISBN: 1138790044 | 168 Pages | AZW3/MOBI/EPUB/PDF (conv) | 5.6 MB


Is the social dimension of networking being sacrificed for new robotized work and human competitiveness surrendered to complex automation systems in the name of ‘accelerated innovation’? Will digitized knowledge be more sustainably used, or will new forms of instability and dependability be introduced? What is the future role of ‘digital knowledge’ in our rapidly changing institutional landscape? Innovation Management in Robot Society addresses these questions, exploring what acceleration means for the management of technology and innovation and the future of organizational knowledge.

The book explores new ways to assess, manage and organize innovative social capital, assimilate ‘virtual knowledge’ and produce and integrate complex technological knowledge. In particular, it explores how new robotized work radically change the creative and critical methods to increase an organization’s capacity to recombine digitized knowledge. Innovation Management in Robot Society attempts to provide a better understanding of ‘knowledge friction’ within an institutional environment based on a change management perspective. The book presents a framework that differentiates types of digital knowledge assets and emerging organizational and technological capabilities.
