摘要
跨界行为对员工创造力的影响至关重要,因而成为组织行为学研究的热点之一,然而在内部既有知识与外部异质知识冲突下,跨界行为对员工创造力的影响如何,既有研究尚未明确。基于资源依赖与信息加工理论,构建有调节的链式中介作用模型,探究知识冲突情景下跨界行为对员工创造力的作用机制。通过290个有效样本的实证研究得出如下结论:跨界行为对员工创造力有显著正向影响;认知灵活性与知识整合在跨界行为与员工创造力之间起显著中介作用;认知灵活性与知识整合在跨界行为与员工创造力之间起链式中介效应;知识冲突正向调节跨界行为对认知灵活的直接影响。本文拓展了跨界行为与知识冲突个体层面的影响研究,深化了跨界行为对创造力影响的认知灵活性与知识整合作用机制,突破了既有研究的知识冲突消极影响论,提出了其对跨界行为影响的积极效应论。同时,为企业如何通过跨界行为有效提升员工创造力提供了理论依据与决策参考。
The impact of boundary-spanning behavior on employees' creativity is very important,so it becomes a hot topic in organizational behavior research.However,under the condition of the conflict between internal existing knowledge and external heterogeneous knowledge,the impact of boundary-spanning behavior on employees' creativity has not been clarified by existing research.Based on above,it constructed a moderated chain mediating model to explore the mechanism and boundary conditions of boundary-spanning behavior on employees' creativity according to the theories of resource dependence and information processing.The empirical study of 290 effective samples draw the following conclusions.Firstly,boundary-spanning behavior had a significant positive impact on employees' creativity.Secondly,cognitive flexibility and knowledge integration play the positive mediating roles between boundary-spanning behavior and employees' creativity.Thirdly,cognitive flexibility and knowledge integration play the chain mediating roles between boundary-spanning behavior and employees' creativity.Finally,knowledge conflict positively mediates the direct impact of boundary-spanning behavior on cognitive flexibility.The conclusions explored the chain mechanism of boundary-spanning behavior on employees' creativity in the context of knowledge conflict,expanded the research on the impact of boundary-spanning behavior and knowledge conflict at the individual level,deepened the mechanism of cognitive flexibility and knowledge integration on the impact of boundary-spanning behavior on creativity,broke through the existing research on the negative impact of knowledge conflict,and put forward the positive effect theory of its impact on boundary-spanning behavior.At the same time,it provides a theoretical basis and decision-making reference for enterprises to effectively improve employees' creativity through boundary-spanning behavior.
