"The Ratatouille Paradox: Exploring the differences between improvisation and other creative processes"

Management and organization literature has extensively noticed the crucial role that improvisation assumes in organizations as a creative process (Fisher & Amabile, 2008). However, existing contributions lacked in defining the differences between improvisation and other relevant creative processes. My paper aims to contribute to the existing literature on the theme, describing how this process unfolds and highlighting the differences between improvisation and experimentation, brainstorming, trial and error, and imagination. Through 26 inductive case studies the paper describes the dimensions that signal the differences between improvisation and these other creative processes: the structuration of the creative phases, the nature of the trials, the relation between idea generation and final execution, the presence and the nature of preliminary study and research phases. The selected empirical field is haute cuisine and the object of the study is the creative process of the executive chefs of 26 restaurants awarded by Michelin Guide in 2010 in Italy.
