Creativity and Innovation is a fundamental driver of organizational competitiveness and long term success. Previous literature on innovation is quite fragmented. Plenty of studies have been published every year on innovation drivers, antecedents, types of innovation, and across different levels. This study develops and integrates theoretical and empirical evidences of innovation capabilities across levels in the first phase. For a deeper understanding of micro-level determinants of technological and non-technological innovation, a systematic literature review conducted for 26 year of individual and team level innovation determinants and presented in the second phase. Lastly, an empirical study has been conducted to test the micro level determinants of innovation. The core micro-level determinants were tested and analyzed using statistical tools to determine individual innovative work behavior. The current study provides further research guidelines in unexplored areas of innovation.
