Summary

Introduction

Innovation is critical for organizations, and those of the private sector. Innovation can be defined as “the successful exploitation of new ideas” (DTI, 1994; Francis & Bessant, 2005). Perhaps understudied topic, relates to an organization’s dominant paradigm, redefining public versus private goods. This paper examines organizations that deliver “club goods,” goods which demonstrate aspects of both private and public goods (Buchanan, 1965). One such organization is the homeowner association (HOA), which has been termed “private government” (McKenzie, 1994). If the dominant paradigm of the HOA was to be redefined, and its importance amplified, there may be a potential source of innovation proving beneficial to society. The sharing economy, and the dissemination of club goods, by blurring the distinction between provider and consumer, may be an understudied way to promote innovation in society
