Abstract

Chapter 1 provided the rationale for innovation in all sectors of the economy, specifically to promote economic growth and social development. More generally, societies have to be innovative if it is to protect and promote social well-being within a changing global context. Innovation in the public sector can both support and be supported by a cultural predisposition to social innovation, as will be made clear by subsequent chapters. They focus on organizational innovations that adopt new organizational forms and introduce changes in organizational governance relationships.
