Since the 1990s, Japanese firms have sought to expand their
capacity for innovation by incorporating Western management
practices into their organizational culture. This combination of
Japanese and Western management practices has been highly
successful - Japanese firms are presently at the forefront of
technological and service innovation in areas such as digital
consumer electronics, mobile phone services, and the games
industry. Much can be learned from the success of Japanese
companies in these areas.This book presents an analysis of the
business model unique to Japanese firms, emphasising four special
features: the vertical value chain model, cross-industry
collaboration, dynamic knowledge integration, and strategic
innovation capability. Drawing upon in-depth case studies, this
book presents a new theory of knowledge integration, and places
special emphasis on inter- and intra-organizational collaboration
as a source of strategic innovation. It is a good reference source
for academics, graduate students and professionals in the field of
innovation management.
