Effects of Interpersonal Influences on Innovation Evaluation
In the present economic environment, where technological advances happen very quickly and a product’s life cycle is cut short, companies need a strategy for innovations development to accomplish the objectives. In this paper, we analyze how the addition of innovations affect product evaluation, and how this influence is affected by the type of innovation, but also by the individual’s interpersonal influences. The preliminary analyses confirm that the impact of the interpersonal influences on innovation evaluation depends on innovation type.
