This work aims to shed light on the new principles and techniques of business management of innovation and human capital within a widely connected world. The two most extended innovative paradigms (startups and transfer innovation) are used in all world innovation systems. Their common point is the transformative potential of innovation based on good human capital skills in new management methods to promote an adequate combination of economic progress and social welfare. The human capital skills must be focused on the new agile business models used by these innovative paradigms on the frontier of technological knowledge. The entrepreneurs, startups, and innovative companies need to attract innovative talent that help to implement industrial initiatives (Industry 4.0 in Europe and Advanced Manufacturing in the USA) and dynamize the traditional productive sectors in a market with uncertainty. The technology knowledge is relatively stronger and reliable than business knowledge. Therefore, ICT skills and new innovation management are keys to supporting traditional sectors. The startup boom will produce changes in business models, organizations, and human capital skills.

Innovation represents a source of growth and profitability for firms in today's globalizing competitive environment. In particular, radical innovations are gaining in importance for large established companies as they can be considered a source of organizational rejuvenation. Some large companies organize for radical innovations by establishing dedicated organizational structures. The present study provides a common basis for these activities drawing upon research in the field of radical innovation management and corporate entrepreneurship, which are integrated in a new definitional framework of “New Business Creation” (NBC). In six in-depth case studies and a cross-case analysis, Theo Fowinkel explores the management of human resources in NBC as the commitment, enthusiasm and self-motivation of employees significantly affect the development of radical innovation.

Human capital - the performance and the potential of people in an organisation - has become an increasingly urgent issue for business leaders. Dramatic demographic shifts, the globalisation of organisations, increasing business complexity, and generational differences are causing many organisations to place a more deliberate focus on human capital as a key element in strategic planning and execution. This book helps business leaders determine how to address human capital as part of their business strategy, to drive value and realise the potential of the organisation. Topics are presented clearly, allowing readers to quickly grasp and apply key concepts and ideas. The authors share both their academic research and practical experience from around the world, providing first-hand case studies and examples to help bring theoretical topics to life. With a strong practitioner focus, this book will provide business leaders and HR professionals with new insights into how to improve business performance through a unique, strategic approach to human capital.
