“…Most studies on open innovation have not explored management or managerial roles per se; instead, they have highlighted the implications for management of engaging in open innovation. According to a literature review by Giannopoulou et al (2011) that specifically focuses on the managerial implications related to open innovation, four dimensions of management have been identified in prior research: organizing for openness (e.g., Chesbrough and Appleyard, 2007;Bessant, 2008;Kuschel, 2008;Herzog and Leker, 2010); leadership for diversity (e.g., Harryson, 2008;Herzog, 2008;Vanhaverbeke et al, 2008); co-creating value (e.g., Chesbrough and Appleyard, 2007;Braun and Herstatt, 2008;F€ uller et al, 2008;Di Gangi and Wasko, 2009); and intellectual property (IP) management (e.g., Bughin et al, 2008;Terwiesch and Xu, 2008;Henkel, 2009 Moreover, most studies on open innovation management have been conducted from a firm-centric perspective. By adopting a wider perspective and examining open innovation when it is enacted as collaboration within a large innovation network, additional complexities can be discovered (Dhanaraj and Parkhe, 2006).…”
