LTDAssessed Learning OutcomesLO1: Critically assess the key tools and techniques for managing innovation for application to actual practical situations. LO2: Systematically analyse the impact of innovation and entrepreneurship on the performance of industries. LO3: Develop innovative solutions to contemporary situations. LO4: Evaluate the nature of innovation and entrepreneurship, and be able to identify the potential for innovation and entrepreneurship within an organization and/or network. Background and contextThe complexity, turbulence and rate of change of the business environment has intensified in recent decades (Ribeiro-Soriano and Kraus, 2018). Contemporary strategy literature is replete with studies on the effect of entrepreneurial orientation on firm performance in consideration of the effects of internal and external factors (Klofsten, Urbano and Heaton, 2020). Bernardus and Wahjudono’s (2017) study of 24 Indonesian businesses that examined the mediating role of corporate entrepreneurship and reported a positive relationship between entrepreneurial action and the effects of corporate reputation, strategic leadership, and corporate culture on corporate performance. An important factor that is receiving global attention is innovation. For example, Zehira, Canb and Karabiga’s (2015) survey of 991 middle and senior managers of 331 middle and large-scale firms operating in the manufacturing industry in Turkey, concluded that innovation performance mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial action and firm performance. Organizations; small and large, private and public, for profit and not-for profit, etc.; create marketplace opportunities by jumpstarting and accelerating innovation. Successful execution of solutions to problems, and not just producing ideas, is what sustainable organizations do. Leaders of modern organizations must either find or develop strategies to implement innovation at all levels of the organization. This innovation can be seen in intrapreneurship, a practice that stimulates the creation of new business opportunities within the organisation or collaborating with enterprising and innovative external organisations. Bibliography Aparicio S., Turro, A. and Noguera, M.

One approach is the SAFe framework (Johnson et al. 2014). You may wish to consider entrepreneurial action/effectuation (Sarasvathy, 2001) relating to the opportunity, it is important to appreciate that this is largely about your case study’s ability to organise and combing resources (e.g. human, material, financial, intellectual, etc.) and use its competencies (e.g. intellect, skills, knowledge, technology, experience, etc.) (Tidd & Bessant, 2018). Therefore, the approach you propose needs to be capable of accounting for the resources and competencies required to organise the resources and action the entrepreneurial opportunity. Source material Johnson, G., Whittington, R., Scholes, K., Angwin, D. and Regner, P. 2014.
