Managing Discontinuous Innovation
TL;DR: Rice et al. as mentioned in this paper identified mechanisms and practices under management control that can help to further the discontinuous innovation process, such as mechanisms for directing the technology-market arenas in which these projects occur, mechanisms for proactively stimulating discontinuous innovations, criteria for project evaluation and screening that differ from currently used criteria, and mechanisms for protecting projects that operate in highly uncertain regimes, and the importance of recognizing the key role of multiple champions over time.
