Abstract

The main objective of this research is to highlight the need to reconceptualize the theoretical constructs of innovativeness. This chapter examines the existing definitions of innovativeness, and provides a conceptual framework that considers this topic from an organizational to a personal perspective. The similarities and differences of each are reviewed, and a synthesized conceptualization of innovativeness is offered. A literature review examines innovativeness, taking a broad perspective of the topic in terms of research and practice as well as conceptualizing the relevant personal constructs. This study is limited in taking a marketing perspective. Implications for future research in innovativeness in practice are recommended.
