Operational ability, human ability and structural ability are three important abilities that play the major role in formation of innovation ability. While confirming the direct relationship between innovation ability and these three abilities, the research has extracted effective components on each of these abilities to show that final model of innovation ability in organization depends directly and significantly on three dimensions and 9 component and 22 indices. Also, these indices were taken under vote of 55 active and large companies in different industries to measure the level of importance and impact of each index.
