在大型组织中利用行业协会培育内部创业公司：案例研究
Using Guilds to Foster Internal Startups in Large Organizations: A case study
摘要：
大型组织中的软件产品创新从根本上是困难的，因为进行实验的自由和灵活性受到限制。作为回应，大型敏捷公司在精益创业的启发下，成立了内部创业公司，以启动就业驱动的创新。本案例研究调查了实践社区如何支持五家内部初创公司在大型组织内开发新软件产品。我们观察了六个社区的实践会议，两个研讨会，并在一年的过程中进行了十次半结构化的采访。我们的研究结果表明，一个名为创新协会的实践社区允许内部初创公司通过集体解决问题，创建共享实践和共享知识来相互帮助。这项研究证实，在早期的研究记录到COP的好处也适用于大型组织的软件产品创新的背景下。尽管如此，我们建议类似的创新协会，如本文所述，可以支持大公司在竞争中的新软件产品。
英文摘要：
Software product innovation in large organizations is fundamentally chal-lenging because of restrained freedom and flexibility to conduct experi-ments. As a response, large agile companies form internal startups to initiate employ-driven innovation, inspired by Lean startup. This case study investi-gates how communities of practice support five internal startups in develop-ing new software products within a large organization. We observed six communities of practice meetings, two workshops and conducted ten semi-structured interviews over the course of a year. Our findings show that a community of practice, called the Innovation guild, allowed internal startups to help each other by collectively solving problems, creating shared practic-es, and sharing knowledge. This study confirms that benefits documented in earlier research into CoPs also hold true in the context of software product innovation in large organizations. Henceforth, we suggest that similar innova-tion guilds, as described in this paper, can support large companies in the in-novation race for new software products.
