Assessing determinants of departmental innovation

Abstract

A framework from multiple theoretical perspectives was developed to examine the link between a set of organizational and group variables and the level of group innovation. Survey data were collected from a sample of 150 government divisions in the United Arab Emirates, representing various functional areas, and analyzed using multivariate methods. Results indicate that managerial attitude, decentralization, supervisory support, group satisfaction, diversity, committee membership, and management learning are significant predictors of group innovation. Implications of the results are discussed and suggestions for future research presented.
