Summary:The methodology developed by the Minnesota Innovation Research Program to evaluate the processes of innovation, called the Minnesota Innovation Survey (MIS), was the basis for proposing a model to analyze environments conducive to innovation. The need for a new model emerged from observing the results of studies that used the same methodology, in which questions and dimensions were highly correlated, generating redundancy measurements of constructs and poor accuracy of results. By using a theoretical basis and multivariate statistics we sought to reduce the number of related constructs in order to avoid multicollinearity and dubious results. The methodology used to develop the proposed model is characterized as descriptive with quantitative method. The authors applied the MIS questionnaires to 349 employees of a metalworking company. It is concluded that the new methodology, despite eliminating 65 questions from the data collection instrument, does not reduce its explanatory power and effectiveness in terms of the relations between organizational environments and innovation results.
