Public service innovation as a source of risk: An explorative case study from Poland
The relationship between risk and innovation in the sector of public services has gained little attention and remains mainly only outlined theoretically with very few empirical insights. This paper presents a case-based exploration of cultural public service innovation as a source of risk. The collected evidence demonstrates the complexity of the relations between innovation and risks and the interrelations between risk types. As a result, a refined framework of risk management styles is proposed. The new framework outlined in this article merges the two former theoretical contributions known from the literature and offers possible practical implementations.
