摘要
从组织设计和创造力的过程视角出发,研究了新组织实践影响企业产品创造力的作用机理,探讨了新组织实践(责任分权、知识奖励和跨部门协调)与新产品创造力之间的作用关系,并构建了相应的概念模型。理论分析表明责任分权对新产品创造力有积极影响;知识奖励和跨部门协调在责任分权与新产品创造力间具有部分中介效应,且知识奖励对跨部门协调有积极促进作用。研究结果不仅解释了正式组织实践影响新产品创造力的内部机理,也扩展了组织设计理论在组织创造力研究领域的应用。
Based on organizational design theory and creative process perspective,this paper discusses the effect of New Organizational Practices on creativity,and build the corresponding concept model,a framework that contains of delegation of responsibility,knowledge reward,cross-functional coordination and new product creativity is established to reveal the relationship between organizational practices and creativity at organizational level.Theoretical analysis show that delegation of responsibility has a positive effect on new product creativity;knowledge reward and cross-functional coordination play a partial mediation effect between delegation of responsibility and new product creativity,and knowledge reward has a positive role in promoting cross-functional coordination.The theoretical framework not only explains the internal mechanism of new organizational practices influence creativity,but also extend the application of organizational design in the field of organizational creativity research.
