Synopsis

The management of techology has become universally recognized as a key element of international competitiveness in both military and commercial arenas, encompassing concerns for effective product and process design, development and implementation. Far-sighted managers as well as academics have increasingly perceived the need for thoughtful scholarship on the managerial issues involved in technology. Since M.I.T. has been a pioneer in technology management research and education (its program was founded in 1962), the Sloan Management Review has been in an ideal position to encourage publication and diffusion of new ideas in this rapidly emerging new field.
The sixteen articles reprinted here are organized around the critical dimensions of managing technology: staffing, structure, and strategy. Such articles as "Has a Customer Already Developed Your Next Product?," "Entrepreneurs, Champions, and Technological Innovation," and "Government Intervention and Innovation in Industry" offer invaluable insights to practicing managers seeking alternative solutions to current problems.
