Abstract
AbstractAn increased focus on innovation as a means for gaming competitive advantage has forced organizations to look more closely at the managerial skills of their research and development (R&D) managers. The current study uses the Job Challenge Profile to explore how managerial skills are developed on the job by R&D managers. Compared to other managers, research and development managers faced more job challenge from lack of top management support and from problematic relationships with their bosses and subordinates. However, they reported learning less from their jobs. Implications for developing managerial skills in the R&D function are discussed.
