Markus Sattler reviews the predictors of successful innovation management on firm level with a meta-analytic approach. His findings suggest in that the role of knowledge management and an environment of learning are important success factors on which managers can have a substantial effect.

Dr. Markus Sattler wrote this book as an external research assistant at the WIN chair of Prof. Dr. Malte Brettel at the RWTH Aachen University.
