- Summary:
- Widespread recognition of the strategic imperative posed by a turbulent external environment has brought into focus a key challenge for firms - that of increasing involvement in innovation by the staff in the organisation.

Achieving this depends on a systematic process of organisational development in which the facilitative patterns of behavioural routines are extended and reinforced, so that they become a major culture change.
