The Inno-Wellness project (Innovation management and wellbeing models in the public sector) studies and develops new innovation management practices, which combine the perspectives of user-based and employee-driven service innovation and promote employee well-being in the public sector. The research process creates a learning network for pondering generalisations and learning across sectors. The research involves seven case studies which represent different public service organisations in Finland. The project aims to answer critical societal demands, e.g. how employees in the public sector could stay longer in the work life. In innovation research, the project is linked to the views of customer value based innovations and open innovation. Through better innovation management, the improvement of effectiveness, productivity and quality of services is expected.
