CULTURE OF INNOVATION AND ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE MEASURES FOR ANALYSIS OF THE ASSOCIATION WITH INNOVATION

Abstract

The culture of innovation has been studied in different countries and disciplines. One of the major goals of its development is to drive members of an organization to share values associated with innovation. In this work, we sought to describe and analyze instruments for measuring the innovation culture, as well as to characterize organizational culture instruments used to assess its association with innovation. From an extensive review of the literature based on the main databases available in the country regarding the area of multidisciplinary knowledge, four instruments that intended to evaluate the innovation culture were identified and only two of them presented actual indicators. The measures of the organizational culture associated with innovation are diverse and reveal the complexity and lack of consensus on the analyzed construct. These results contribute to the implementation of quantitative studies and organizational diagnosis on the subject.
