Using Data

The authors report the results from a three-year study of new product development practices in Japanese firms. They develop a causal model of factors correlated with new product success. They test the model using data collected on 788 new products developed and commercialized by Japanese firms in the past four years. The “best practices” identified in this study suggest that Japanese new product success is positively influenced by the level of cross-functional integration and information sharing, the firm's marketing and technical resources and skills, the proficiency of the new product development activities undertaken, and the nature of market conditions. Cross-functional integration and product competitive advantage are two key determinants of new product success. The authors also discuss managerial and research implications.

Organisation and management of the product development process have been an issue in both academia and industry for over three decades. The literature on product development is growing, but Process Industry is often lacking in these discussions. Therefore, this paper focuses on linking the determinants of an effective product development process to Process Industry and the implication this may have on a traditionally very process-oriented industry by nature. Further, the paper organises the burgeoning product development literature into three main determinants: innovation type, technology strategy and organisational aspect. The selection of determinants to the conceptual framework, adjusting for Process Industry origins in previous written research material and our own empirical work of product development in Process Industry, is briefly presented at the beginning of the paper. Our literature review focuses on the product development process and builds the framework of our conceptual model detailing the elements of intra- and inter-firm processes in the product development process of the Process Industry. Our purpose is to give an increased understanding of the changed innovation pattern in Process Industry and its implication on activities concerning organisation and management of the product development process.

Entrepreneurial Leader

In highly competitive industry, as such in Indonesian Television Industry, the companies should have the ability to respond the competition, in a very narrow window time. Dynamic Capability concept from David Teece, Gary Pisano, and Amy Shuen is in an excellent concept in addressing this situation and became the central of thought in building organization capability to face the competition. Dynamic capabilities took a significant attention from researcher and continue to draw more new concepts and theories. However based on Jeffrey T Macher and David C Mowery, only few researchers focused to the organizational process in developing this capability inside the organizations. Organizational capabilities are built from organizational routines, structures, and processes. It also requires resources, which are available through internal development or acquisition, and lead by a manager or entrepreneurial leader that improve existing routine or create the new ones. The dynamic market forces the organization to explore and exploit the internal and external resources to reach a level of innovation and win the competition. An entrepreneur leader has a high potential to initiate exploitation of internal resources and exploration of external resources, as well as proactively initiate strategic and innovative steps, manage risk, in order to optimize the organization capability and gain competitive advantage. This paper intended to explore a conceptual framework to develop dynamic capabilities in the organization and bring Indonesian Television Industry into the discussion of industrial dynamic competition.

<p>The scholars in the field of strategic management have developed two major approaches for attainment of competitive advantage: an approach based on environmental opportunities, and another one based on internal capabilities of an organization. Some investigations in the last two decades have indicated that the advantages relying on the internal capabilities of organizations may determine the competitive position of organizations better than environmental opportunities do. Characteristics of firms shows that one of the most internal capabilities that lead the organizations to the strongest competitive advantage in the organizations is the innovation capability. The innovation capability is associated with other organizational capabilities, and many organizations have focused on the need to identify innovation capabilities. </p><p>This research focuses on recognition of the structural aspect of innovation capability and proposes a conceptual framework based on a Qualitative Meta Synthesis of academic literature on organizations innovation capability. This is proposed for the development of the concept of innovation capability in the organizations and this paper includes an expert based validation in three rounds of the Delphi method. And for the purpose of a better appreciation of the relationship dominating the factors of the conceptual framework, it has distributed the questionnaire in Iranian companies of the Food industry. At last, this research proposed a direct relationship between Innovation Capability and Structural Capability. Also, it offers the most important components and indices which directly influence and are related to the structural capability of innovation capability.</p>
