An empirical research on the impact mechanism of service innovation with multi-participators

Abstract

Abstract: How to use the innovation subjects around the organization in service innovation process is an important issue that a service organization faces. Based on the correlative theoretical research on multi-participators and customer satisfaction, a hypothesis model about these variables is proposed. By Empirical Research, the data obtained via questionnaire are analyzed by structure equations modeling (SEM). The results of this study include: customer participation has positive impact on employee participation and supplier participation; supplier participation has positive impact on employee participation; customer participation and supplier participation have positive impact on customer satisfaction; but employee participation has no direct impact on customer satisfaction. This paper found the comprehensive effect mechanism of multi-participators and customer satisfaction, and then some suggestions are proposed.

Key words: multi-participator, employee participation, customer participation, supplier participation, customer satisfaction
