Innovation and excellence
Management methods for innovation transformation
Innovation theatre
Another important strategic issue is how the results of various popular innovation activities, such as corporate idea competitions, hackathons, design thinking workshops, and project initiatives, are integrated into the organisation. Activities referred to in international jargon as "innovation theatre" are usually accompanied by great excitement, with enthusiastic participants and jury members who generally enjoy themselves at these events. They can even be considered productive, as after the creative activities are completed, the host organisation or unit is enriched with a wealth of ideas and even a few prototypes, but it is very rare for them to be continued and implemented.
One of the main problems with activities related to innovation theatre is that all players in a given sector have more or less similar development ideas. In fact, it is not the greatness of the ideas or their number, but the quality of their implementation that distinguishes successful innovative enterprises from their peers. If the management of a company views creative actions related to innovation theatre as merely a supplement to its core activities, a kind of bonus, a "nice-to-have" activity, then it will not allocate sufficient human and financial resources to try out and test the ideas that arise. However, without the commitment of company management, even the most promising ideas will not make it to market launch.

The aim of the book "Innovation and Excellence" is to inspire and encourage company leaders, managers, and experts to initiate and implement innovation transformations with the help of professional literature and corporate case studies. Another important goal is to help develop the innovation capabilities of small and medium-sized enterprises in particular by sharing simple, proven management methods that can be tested in practice. The first part of the volume reviews the factors of corporate excellence and success, then highlights the possible sources of innovation, with a focus on the role of users and employees. The empirical section presents a detailed description of the supportive role of the workplace environment and creative working conditions based on corporate case studies (AUDI, BOSCH, MELECS). The volume concludes with a description of selected tested practical methods and management techniques that readers can try out in their own businesses.
