Failure to Recognize Opportunities
Because firms cannot pursue all innovations,
they need to develop the capability to carefully evaluate innovations and to select the
ones that hold the greatest potential. To obtain a competitive advantage, an organi-
zation must usually make investment decisions before the innovation process reaches
the mature stage. The earlier the investment, however, the greater the risk. If organi-
zations are not skilled at recognizing and evaluating opportunities, they may be
overly cautious and fail to invest in innovations that later turn out to be successful
for other firms.
