Innovation research has delved into the significance of innovations for organizational competitiveness and the role of innovations in fostering social and economic welfare. Consequently, scholars and practitioners often highlight the processes that drive desired innovative outcomes. However, the execution of these innovation processes relies on motivated individuals. In recent years, academic literature has begun to consider the mindsets of these actors, but divergent conceptualizations hinder our comprehensive understanding of the term mindset and its role in organizational innovation efforts. This book seeks to unravel the "black box" of innovation by integrating mindset theories from social psychology into the context of frugal innovation. Through rigorous conceptualization, the author offers a comprehensive exploration of mindsets in innovation, supported by findings from two empirical studies. This book makes substantial contributions to both theory and practice. On the academic front, it enhances our understanding of innovation as a mindset by providing conceptual clarity and offering supportive empirical evidence. Moreover, it empowers innovation practitioners by demonstrating how a deep understanding of individuals' mindsets can inform evidence-based change interventions.
