Abstract

This paper aims at better understanding how some firms have built and maintained capabilities to innovate repeatedly in the long run. We deal with large organizations that delivered successful innovations again and again over decades. We aim at identifying the underlying strategic and organizational dynamics that made it possible to maintain this ability over time. We first review the literature on innovation and intrapreneurship. We then present the results of four case studies of companies known for their long and solid track record regarding innovation. From this, we infer a theoretical comprehensive framework designed to capture how innovating repeatedly within existing organizations can be institutionalized via a set of sub-processes. We finally present a simplified version of the model stressing the role of managerial leaders.
