It contributes to the literature in several ways. First, it provides a global definition, insights and examples of this managerial perspective resulting in a theoretical framework. Second, it explores the relationship between crowdsourcing and technological innovation, the development of social networks and new behaviors of Internet users. Third, it explores different crowdsourcing applications in various sectors such as medicine, tourism, information and communication technology (ICT), and marketing. Fourth, it observes the ways in which crowdsourcing can improve production, finance, management and overall managerial performance. Crowdsourcing, also known as ?massive outsourcing? or ?voluntary outsourcing,? is the act of taking a job or a specific task usually performed by an employee of a company or contractors, and outsourcing it to a large group of people or a community (crowd or mass) via the Internet, through an open call. The term was coined by Jeff Howe in a 2006 issue of Wired magazine. It is being developed in different sciences (i.e., medicine, engineering, ICT, management) and is used in the most successful companies of the modern era (i.e., Apple, Facebook, Inditex, Starbucks). The developments in crowdsourcing has theoretical and practical implications, which will be explored in this book. Including contributions from international academics, scholars and professionals within the field, this book provides a global, multidimensional perspective on crowdsourcing. 606 $aManagement 606 $aIndustrial management 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aInformation technology 606 $aBusiness?Data processing 606 $aInnovation/Technology Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/518000 606 $aEntrepreneurship$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/514000 606 $aIT in Business$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522000 615 0$aManagement. 615 0$aIndustrial management. 615 0$aEntrepreneurship. 615 0$aInformation technology. 615 0$aBusiness?Data processing. 615 14$aInnovation/Technology Management. 615 24$aEntrepreneurship. 615 24$aIT in Business. 676 $a330 676 $a650 676 $a658421 676 $a658514 702 $aGarrigos-Simon$b Fernando J$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGil-Pechuán$b Ignacio$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aEstelles-Miguel$b Sofia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298469103321 996 $aAdvances in Crowdsourcing$92529302 997 $aUNINA
