The course gives an overview of different ways how public sector can support social innovation, innovations in firms and industries (through innovation policy), and public sector innovation. The key focus area of the course is ‘innovation bureaucracy’ – public sector organizations that support innovation – and its emergence, evolution and management. The course covers innovation bureaucracy related theoretical and practical issues on the system level (how innovation and change-oriented organizations emerge and evolve in public sector), organizational level (how to structure and manage such organizations) and individual level (what types of managers and leaders such organizations need).
