PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine whether the new distributed leadership patterns is an important driver for innovating business model. By synthesizing insights from the dynamic capabilities perspective, it also explores how and when distributed leadership enhances the business model innovation (BMI) by involving strategic flexibility as a mediator and environmental dynamism as important contingency.Design/methodology/approachA survey via questionnaire was conducted with 262 CEOs and 262 senior managers from Chinese high-tech companies that provided the research data. Structural equation modeling and linear regression analyses were used to test the time-lagged data, and then the main research questions were responded to.FindingsThe analysis reveals that distributed leadership has a significant direct influence on BMI, and that distributed leadership also indirectly affects BMI by enhancing strategic flexibility. Environmental dynamism strengthens the positive effect of distributed leadership on BMI under strategic flexibility.Originality/valueThis paper advances and enriches the emerging stream of BMI research. It presents an innovative conceptual analysis of the antecedents of BMI, and it shows a possible solution for BMI that complements extant research that considers which and how the leadership style of the organizations affects the business model change.

To obtain a sustainable competitive advantage in the dynamic environment, it is necessary for Chinese high-tech enterprises to focus on their technology habitual domains in formulating ambidextrous innovation strategy. This study integrates technology habitual domain, exploratory innovation and exploitative innovation within a framework and explores the influence mechanism among them. Based on an in-depth case study on KTE, representing a high-tech enterprise in China, we have several findings. Firstly, we depict the evolution mechanism of technology habitual domain; secondly, we find that the high-tech enterprise’s technology habitual domain will cultivate and develop the firms’ dynamic capabilities; and thirdly, the expansion of technology habitual domain will promote exploitative innovation, while the transformation of technology habitual domain will promote exploratory innovation. These findings can be useful guidance for high-tech enterprises in China who are aiming to achieve ambidextrous innovation to better adapt to the turbulent environment, and thus achieving sustainability.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between employees’ knowledge and organisational performance. Design/methodology/approach Using a structural equation model, feedback received from 237 blue-collar workers from multinational high-tech manufacturing enterprises in Italy was studied to understand, from a dynamic capabilities perspective, the role of soft skills in the career success of production workers. Findings The results of the analysis indicate a positive relationship between workers’ commitment to develop their soft skills and their career success, as well as a positive relationship between an organisation’s approach to both knowledge exploration and knowledge exploitation and the prospects for career success of blue-collar workers. Research limitations/implications The research has both theoretical and practical implications, as any efforts by researchers and practitioners to find effective ways to motivate the workforce will be likely to lead to a positive attitude towards learning and, ultimately, to improved business performance. Originality/value The originality of the paper is the focus on the personality and interpersonal attributes of workforce – blue-collar workers – and how they can affect business performance in highly innovative contexts.

Based on the dynamic capabilities view, this study first examines whether the co-existence of explorative and exploitative capabilities can directly cause organizational tensions. In addition, this study employs the combination of these two capabilities to examine how organizational ambidexterity affects organizational tensions. The research subjects consisted of high-tech firms in Taiwan developing new, high-tech products, and a total of 154 valid questionnaires were returned from these. A hierarchical multiple regression model was used for hypotheses testing. Our findings show that explorative capability is not statistically significant, but that exploitative capability significantly and positively influences organizational tensions. This study provides support for the strong moderating effect of environmental dynamism on the relationship between organizational ambidexterity and organizational tensions.

This study used two mixed methods are qualitative and quantitative methods, qualitative methods were analysed using semi structured techniques based on interviews and case studies. Whereas, the quantitative methods were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Science. Descriptive analysis based on frequencies and percentages was performed to define the major demographic characteristics of the respondents. This study aimed at identifying the major factors that affect KMP, KOL, KM dynamic capabilities, and innovation performance, in particular, influence of knowledge management on managerial performance services in developing countries. The results of this study are expected contribute to in-depth understanding of how factors affect adoption of in the high tech sector in developing countries and play critical role in improving the level of their using.

In the age of development of “high” technologies and increasing competition based on the introduction of innovative developments, researchers discuss actively the sources and factors of innovative staff behavior and study the innovative resource of the staff and the innovative potential of the staff , that are in fact inherent characteristics of the human resource of an innovative-oriented company, which should be subject to evaluation and development. The article introduces the concept of an “innovative staff mass” as a set of identifi ed components that are important for the company’s innovative development, because they disclose the resource status of the staff in the current period of time and the hidden, unrealized abilities of the staff which can be realized in the form of innovative behavior in the situation of tomorrow day. It is the innovative staff mass which can ensure the formation of the company’s dynamic capabilities that ensure the long-term effective functioning of the company in a competitive market in the conditions of the development of “high” technologies. The article presents the defi nition of this concept. It is considered the importance and expediency of combining these concepts when considering the issue of staff development in high-tech companies, it is proved the falseness of isolating and developing one of the components while ignoring the second one. Conditions for developing components are formulated. The essence and structure of the concept “innovative staff mass” is disclosed. Possible directions for the development of the staff to form an innovative staff mass have been formulated, realized through the integration of two components that form an innovative staff mass and three characteristics of the staff that ensure the company’s innovative development: the ability and willingness to innovate and the ability to realize innovative potential within a high-tech company.
