Abstract

To ensure sustainable growth and survival, organisations rely on learning and innovation as vital processes and abilities. However, with increasingly unpredictable and dynamically changing business environments, it is imperative to better access and manage perceptions of uncertain environments in the context of an organisational system. In this chapter, the authors take a view at the intricacies and implications of relevant literatures and point out the yet under-researched role of perceived environmental uncertainty for learning and innovation.
