P. F. Drucker sees innovativeness as a precondition for functioning of organization and the whole economy (DRUCKER P.F. 1992). Ability to be innovative, viewed by M. R. Porter (PORTER M.E. 2001) as a major source of competitive advantage, depends on many endogenous factors which form innovative potential of any organization. The focus of this monograph was on the analysis of management as an area of innovative activities. It analyses both motivations for the implementation of innovations and expected benefits while relating it to examples from this area. Relatively much attention was paid to the problems of humans in the organizational space and highlighting the problems whose solving requires that the decision-makers should be characterised by an innovative approach to human resource management understood in the broad sense. This was aimed to discuss the opportunities for building and developing innovative potential of the enterprise, where the role of the human potential as a creators of new ideas is strongly emphasized.

The monograph represents the outcome of the scientific research performed within international collaboration of scientists from Poland and Slovakia coordinated by Prof. A. Cierniak-Emerych, PhD, with editors: A. Bodak, PhD, Sz. Dziuba, PhD, and A. Pietroń – Pyszczek, PhD.

Being aware of the fact of the multitude of problems in this field, the authors believe that the monograph contributes to exploration of new areas of research concerning innovativeness and represents the topic for the discussion of the scope or limits of the concept of innovation.
