Innovation has been conceptualized in many ways and studied from several perspectives. Past research has argued that distinguishing types of innovation is necessary for understanding organizations’ adoption behavior and identifying the determinants of innovation in them. Among numerous typologies of innovation advanced in the relevant literature, three have gained the most attention. Each centers on a pair of types of innovation: administrative and technical, product and process, and radical and incremental. The distinction between administrative and technical innovations is important because it relates to a more general distinction between social structure and technology. Although authors have made distinctions among studies of the “diffusion of innovation”,” organizational innovativeness” and “process theory research”, no clear steps or methods for using the inventory effectively have been provided, nor has a set of accepted standards been made available by which the organizational innovation can be measured. Additionally, the emphases found in organizational innovation activities in various industries are different. Moreover, there are still few related researches in our country. It is for these reasons that the proposed study will design a conceptual model, suitable for use by high-tech enterprises in Taiwan, to measure the organizational innovation. Furthermore, this pa
