Abstract
The range of HRM issues linked to the management of innovation are multi-level, and cross from macro- to micro-levels of analysis (Sparrow, Hird & Cooper, 2014). At the macro-level, there is the challenge of business model innovation, the need to examine the organisational and structural alternatives needed for developing innovation, the need to co-ordinate HRM — often across broad networks of organisations — and the challenges of institutionalising an innovation model and culture. At the micro-level, attention traditionally focuses on issues of leadership for innovation, creating a culture or climate for innovation at team level, shaping employees through the management and selection of individual talent, and the development of creativity at the individual level. This chapter has the following aims.
