Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complexities of transferring technological advancements between research and development units within large organizations. The author examines the role of nominated boundary spanners, individuals tasked with facilitating knowledge exchange. Through a detailed analysis of a specific case study, the author finds that a significant number of these designated liaisons fail to effectively fulfill their role. The study reveals that strong communication networks, both within the organization and externally, are crucial for successful technology transfer. The author highlights the importance of identifying individuals with existing gatekeeper characteristics, rather than simply assigning the role, and provides practical strategies for organizations to enhance the effectiveness of boundary spanners and promote the successful adoption of new technologies. Ultimately, the book emphasizes the need for a nuanced understanding of the factors that contribute to successful technology transfer, and offers valuable insights for organizations seeking to optimize their innovation processes.
