Abstract

Inherent uncertainty in innovation projects is a management challenge for organisations. This study examines the impact of intra-organisational collaboration on reducing uncertainty in innovation projects, along with the role of organisational learning in facilitating this relationship. It draws on empirical data collected from 249 managers of innovation projects and analysed using Structural Equation Modelling. The results confirm that intra-organisational collaboration, with its five dimensions, reduces uncertainty in innovation projects and leads to organisational learning. Our paper provides empirical evidence for the first time that effective organisational practices reduce innovation project uncertainty, providing important insights for practitioners on the importance of investing in enhancing organisational learning and collaborations to increase the success of innovation projects.
