突破性创新已成为企业盈利和增长的关键性力量。针对既有文献对突破性创新驱动因素的研究不足,考察了高绩效工作实践系统和知识扩散对跨国公司在华突破性产品创新的影响关系。基于165家在华跨国公司高层管理人员填写的调查问卷,采用因子分析和结构方程模型对研究假设进行检验。实证结果揭示了高绩效工作系统的三种实践:工作轮换、员工培训和跨部门沟通对突破性产品创新的前置效应以及知识扩散对突破性产品创新与企业绩效的传导机制,同时,本文还发现突破性创新导向的技术战略可以显著提高在华跨国公司的运营绩效。最后,论述了本文的理论贡献、实践价值、不足和进一步研究的方向。
Abstract
Radical innovation has become the critical power for firm growth. Focusing on the limited research of the driven mechanism for the radical innovation, the system of high performance work practice and knowledge dissemination for the performance of the MNCs’radical innovation in China is explored. Based on 165 MNCs’survey questionnaires, the factor analysis and SEM are used to test research hypothesis. The result shows that three practices of the high performance work system, that is, job rotation, employee training, and cross-department communication have a significant positively impact on the radical product innovation, and on the transmitting mechanism of knowledge dissemination for the radical product innovation and firm performance. Meanwhile, it is also found that the radical innovation-based technology strategy could improve MNC’s performance greatly in China. Finally, the theoretical contribution, management implications, limitations, and directions for future research are examined.
