Abstract

Management of innovation processes in a company is a field that is still not sufficiently researched and applied in practice. Managers in companies often do not know about modern techniques and design tools for creating innovation processes and about the possibility of their effective usage for management and in decision-making conditions. Therefore the main aim of the paper is to present contemporary theoretical and practical achievements in the field of innovation management, which focus on the area of innovation processes and emphasize the possibilities of managing innovation processes in business. The practical purpose of this study was to analyze the state and development of innovativeness of a selected group of Polish enterprises. The following methods were used in the work: a critical analysis of the literature, deductive methods, CAWI method (Computer Assisted Web Interview), and synthesis of measurement results of analytical indicators in selected functional areas of the studied enterprises. The conclusion was that for several years, it is clearly visible that a small group of innovative companies has formed in Poland that constantly increases its expenditure on innovative activities including research and development. In addition, the expenditures incurred are at a very decent level when compared to the European Union (EU) average, which suggests that these companies are competitive not only at the country level, but also outside it.
