Book synopsis

The growing necessity to introduce innovations to§markets has made firms more conscious of their§conception and consumption of knowledge as the§meta-resource with which they compete. Consequently,§the use of multidisciplinary teams, where knowledge§resources are brought together from different§disciplines has gained tremendous popularity. Yet§these teams have often fallen short of realizing§their innovation-creation potential due to unique and§unusual team functioning problems. This research§uncovers and analyzes concurrent tensions of§commitment, leadership and knowledge sharing that§emerge in multidisciplinary teams due to their§heterogeneous composition and often derail their§creative knowledge development performance. As found,§tension management mechanisms including boundary§management, distributed leadership and helping-based§collaboration enable multidisciplinary teams§realizing their potential to innovate.
