The Impact

We investigated individual-level knowledge sharing and innovative behavior of employees, organizational innovation climate, and interactions between the individual level of knowledge sharing and the climate of innovation within the organization as a whole. Employees of public corporations in the Taiwanese finance and insurance industries participated in this study. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) indicated a positive association between knowledge sharing and innovative behavior and a positive association between organizational innovation climate and innovative behavior. According to the results of HLM organizational innovation climate did not act as a moderator on the impact of knowledge sharing on innovative behavior.

Data collection was conducted in all states of Peninsular Malaysia including the northern, central, southern and eastern regions. Findings – The findings show that EO has a significant relationship with MO, and MO has a significant relationship with SME performance. MO will mediate the relationship between EO and SMEs’ performance. Practical implications – The higher the EO implemented in a business, the more willing a company will be to implement MO. This analysis shows that highly entrepreneurial firms tend to be highly market orientated and this affects SMEs’ performance. Originality/value – The results of this study show that the characteristic of entrepreneurial and MO practiced by SMEs in Malaysia has been significantly affected the SMEs’ performance. It indicates that EO offers a holistic and systematic model for supporting SMEs to build a well-maintained environment of MO and SMEs’ performance.

In this study, the main focus is to articulate the innovation and orientation concepts towards the market, using as empiric reference, the clothing and textile section. About the methods, the research was descriptive, with quantitative analysis from a survey involving a sample of 62 industrial clothing and textile companies of the city of Londrina (PR). To verify the market orientation degree of the companies of the sample, it was used the Markor’s scale, developed by Kohli, Jaworski and Kumar (1993), and the analysis of the data was performed from the Pearson’s coeficient of correlation. The basic premise ob tained from the data of the ield research is that the approach to the consuming market and the focus on the customer are factors that may contribute to the development and implementation of companies’ innovations.

The Relationship

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between humorous leadership and innovative behavior and the moderator effects of creative requirement and perceived innovation climate, beyond transformational leadership, and leader-member exchange (LMX). Design/methodology/approach – Questionnaire data were collected from 150 employees of various organizations in Germany. Findings – Employees whose leader used humor more frequently reported to be more innovative, when the employees perceived their tasks to require creativity and innovation. Perceived innovation climate did not moderate the relationship. Research limitations/implications – Different humor styles rather than just positive humor should be investigated in the future. Future research should incorporate multi-level designs and objective data on innovative behavior. Practical implications – Humorous leadership is an important element of innovation-relevant leadership behavior. Its use may be integrated in broader leadership development approaches. Originality/value – The study contributes to knowledge on humorous leadership and its relationship to organizational behavior. It enhances theoretical developments by considering the employees’ task and perceived innovation climate as moderator variables. It helps establish humor as a leadership tool beyond constructs such as LMX or transformational leadership.

The Relationship

Incubation of organisations by corporate incubators is currently regaining attention as a key way to foster innovation. However, understanding of how corporate incubators affect employee’s innovative behaviour in the host company is still limited. This study aims to fill this gap by examining the relationship between corporate incubator influence and innovative work behaviour and how this is moderated by innovation climate. Using a multi-level regression with 1,202 participants nested in 100 organisational units of a large, international company, the study shows that corporate incubators and innovation climate significantly affect innovative work behaviour. Further, we found that shared and individual perceptions of innovation climate moderate incubator influence differently. In order to improve innovative work behaviour, corporate incubators can compensate a weak innovation climate while strengthening the impact of individual perceptions of innovation climate on innovative behaviour, which introduces new ways of how companies are able to improve their innovativeness.

Along with the knowledge economy era, the concept of organizational capital increasingly receives many attentions. Many previous studies have emphasized the influence of organizational capital on innovation at the organizational level. The present study is trying to explore the impact of organizational capital on service innovation behavior and examine the mediating effect of organizational innovation climate on the relationship between organizational capital and service innovation behavior. The researchers conducted a survey to collect data from Taiwan Top 500 service businesses based on CommonWealth magazine’s survey. We expect to profoundly understand the relationships between organizational capital, innovation climate, and service innovation behaviors as well as provide meaningful implications for academics and practitioners.
