Top Management Attention to Innovation: The Role of Search Selection and Intensity in New Product Introductions

TLDR
In this paper, the authors developed and tested an attention-based theory of search by top management teams and the influence on firm innovativeness, using an in-depth field study of 61 publicly traded high-technology firms and their top executives.
Abstract
We develop and test an attention-based theory of search by top management teams and the influence on firm innovativeness. Using an in-depth field study of 61 publicly traded high-technology firms and their top executives, we find that the location selection and intensity of search independently and jointly influence new product
