创新过程是复杂的。正是通过当地人与技术之间的互动，才出现了多样化和新颖的成果。即使在简单的规则下，这种相互作用也会产生非线性的时间动态。鉴于这种复杂性，组织如何维持创新以实现持续增长和活力？基于对3M公司创新实践和历程的深入研究，我们确定了实践的组合（我们将其概念化为复杂性安排）如何提供多种创新，
Innovation processes are complex. It is through local interactions among people and technologies that diverse and novel outcomes emerge. Even when governed by simple rules, such interactions can generate nonlinear temporal dynamics. Given such complexities, how might an organization sustain innovation for continued growth and vitality? Drawing on an in-depth study of innovation practices and journeys at 3M Corporation, we identify how combinations of practices - which we conceptualize as complexity arrangements - afford multiple
