Abstract
This paper presents preliminary results from an empirical study on the effects of environmental perturbation (an unexpected, disruptive, social or economic event), such as the pandemic-driven disruptions, on attitude towards innovation. The results based on a survey with 266 construction professionals from multiple countries demonstrate that such perturbations force a change in the attitude towards innovation, both among individuals and organisations. The study also validates the earlier claims that this change can be positive as well as negative. Cases of both increase and decrease in innovation-related activities are reported. Findings also suggest that the perturbation-induced excitation aligns the needs and priorities of the different actors in the ecosystem, fostering innovation activities. © 2021, European Council on Computing in Construction (EC3).
