Strategic Management of Technological Innovation Paperback – 16 December 2012

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 72 ratings

There is a newer edition of this item:

Strategic Management of Technological Innovation, 4e by Melissa Schilling is the first comprehensive and rigorous, yet accessible text for the Technology and Innovation Management course. Unlike other books, Schilling’s approach synthesizes the major research in the field, providing students with the knowledge needed to enhance case discussion and analysis. The subject is approached as a strategic process, and as such, is organized to mirror the strategic management process used in most strategy textbooks, progressing from assessing the competitive dynamics of a situation, to strategy formulation, to strategy implementation. As a brief, affordable paperback, it is ideal to package with cases. Recommended case sets from the author are available through McGraw-Hill Create or from the Harvard Business School Case Database.

Purchased for a masters program course in Strategic Management of Technology. The course covered the entire book. The cases were nice lead-ins for the chapters however it would be nice if the book were had more relevant examples and profiles. Since this is the 4th edition, some things are updated, but most graphs dated around 2012 or earlier and not much, if any, from 2013 or later. The concepts are still relevant however and it would be a great supplement to more current cases or coursework.

5.0 out of 5 stars libro ben scritto e strutturato
Reviewed in Italy on 17 April 2016

Ho apprezzato molto il libro, la chiarezza con cui è scritto e i numerosi casi riportati come esempio, appartenenti ai vari settori hitech e anche pharmaceutical. Nozioni di management utili a chi, come il sottoscritto, possiede una preparazione più tecnica. Unico appunto, a livello estetico, qualche figura a colori sarebbe stata gradita, ma il prezzo sarebbe salito e forse non avrei nemmeno comprato il libro. In definitiva, per i contenuti, lo consiglierei senza ombra di dubbio.
