Earlier chapters explored a broad understanding of innovation in China from different angles. This current chapter focuses on the level of organization in business operation in the corresponding industry, and how an intra-organizational personnel management system cooperates with inter-organizational stakeholders to approach innovation. In this sense, we distinguish the personnel management within an organization and extend this management to inter-organizational relationships, to a broader definition of human resource management (HRM) as Zhang et al. (2009) suggest in order to make HR truly strategic.
