Inclusive interactive approach to international R and D

The author proposes an innovative R and D management system and organization suitable for a high-technology environment. Quantitative data can enhance R and D management capability by showing warning signals at the early stages, if the data are used strategically, together with such important inputs as human, organizational, and collaborative factors. Stress on the human factor essentially comes from the inclusive interactive nature of the approach taken throughout the study. This new concept is a pilot model for high-technology organizations in the R and D industry age, expected to start with the onset of the 21st century
