Explore strategies small business leaders use to enhance NPD success rates for Internet of Things devices (Eisenhardt, 2013)Empirical studies have found new product development failure rates to be around 40% (Castellion & Markham, 2013). A recent survey of global business leaders revealed that less than 25% believed that their innovative performance was where it needs to be if they are to be successful in the global marketplace and that innovation management is a key operational discipline with strategies for enhancing NPD success (Harrington & Voehl, 2013a). Principles and best practices of innovation management strategies for NPD are relevant to businesses regardless of size (Harrington & Voehl, 2013a; Miller, 2015). The general business problem is organizational leaders experience reduced profitability when NPD fails. The specific business problem is some leaders of small businesses developing Internet of Things devices lack strategies to enhance their NPD success rates (Barnaghi & Sheth, 2016; Yu, Nguyen, & Chen, 2016).
