Identifying the origins of innovation and project management, this unique Handbook explains why and how the two fields have grown and developed as separate disciplines, highlighting how and why they are now converging. It explores the theoretical and practical connections between the management of innovation and projects, examining the close relationship between the disciplines.Chapters introduce new research examining how organisations manage innovative projects to compete in global markets and tackle some of the immense economic, social and environmental challenges facing societies in the 21st century. Leading scholars in the field examine the management of innovative projects in various forms and across diverse contexts, including R&D, new product development, agile, collaboration, trust and ambidexterity. The Handbook outlines efforts to cross-fertilise ideas from innovation and project management, share and create new concepts, and borrow theories from other disciplines to assist empirical research and develop a more integrated research agenda, offering practical guidance on how to manage innovative projects in real-world settings.Comprehensive and invaluable, this Handbook is a critical read for innovation management and project management scholars and students. Practitioners in both fields interested in developing their professional skills and acquiring thought leadership in a converging field will also benefit greatly from reading this.

‘The Handbook on Innovation and Project Management strives to bridge two academic disciplines of innovation and project management written by 42 leading scholars in these fields. The book is an ambitious and innovative project in itself and it is deftly organised in multiple parts that seek to convergence and integrate, build and extend, and synthesise and cross pollinate. The final part offers a variety of cases, from system engineering to truly complex science projects, that highlight the blending of innovation and project management. One of the most impressive aspects of the Handbook is the vast references associated with every chapter, making this a highly authoritative volume for all students, researchers, and practitioners that explore innovation and project management.’
