Zusammenfassung

Die Beziehung zwischen Innovation und Organisation ist widersprüchlich: Organisation beschränkt Innovation und ermöglicht sie gleichzeitig dadurch. In diesem Beitrag rezipieren wir aktuelle prozessorientierte Ansätze in der Organisationsforschung, die diese Beziehung auf unterschiedliche Arten und Weisen adressieren. Dabei argumentieren wir, dass Innovation weder allein von besonders kreativen Individuen noch von bestimmten Organisationsstrukturen abhängt, sondern von situativen, kollektiven Praktiken, welche durch Organisation unterstützt werden können.

Wir danken Robert Bauer und Jörg Sydow sowie den Herausgeberinnen und Herausgebern für hilfreiche Anmerkungen bei der Entwicklung dieses Texts. Ebenso danken wir der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) für die Bereitstellung von Forschungsmitteln für diese Arbeit.
