Sammendrag
This study aims to resolve the contradictory previous research findings on the relationship between

individualism–collectivism and innovation. We draw on innovation theory and relate to the

difference between non-technological (management) and technological innovation types as well as

to the distinction between exploration and exploitation (invention and commercialization of

technological innovations). Using Community Innovation Survey (CIS) 2006 micro data for

innovation at the organizational level in 13 countries – along with Hofstede (1980, 2001), GLOBE

(2005), and Schwartz (2006) scores for individualism–collectivism – we apply Hierarchical Linear

Modeling (HLM). The results indicate that individualism is positively related to the invention phase,

whereas collectivism is beneficial for the commercialization of innovative ideas. Furthermore, in

collectivistic cultures, management innovation plays a more important stimulating role in enhancing

technological innovation than it does in individualistic ones. This provides the managers with an

idea of when innovation processes in their companies would be more favorable versus detrimental.
