Abstract
New product development projects are experiencing increasing internal and external project
complexity. Complexity leadership theory proposes that external complexity requires adaptive and
enabling leadership, which facilitates opportunity recognition (OR). We ask whether internal
complexity also requires OR for increased adaptability. We extend a model of EO and OR to conclude that internal complexity may require more careful OR. This means that leaders of technically or structurally complex projects need to evaluate opportunities more carefully than those
in projects with external or technological complexity.
