Abstract

Innovation is vital for business sustainability and market competitiveness, with employees playing a crucial role. Current research on employee innovation focuses on individual traits and organizational context, overlooking competition and cooperation. However, these factors influence employee performance. This study reveals through a scenario experiment and a questionnaire that: (1) A balance of competition and cooperation in a team increases exploratory-exploitation learning tension. (2) A combination of high competition and high cooperation positively impacts this tension more than a low competition–cooperation mix. (3) In a contradictory mix, the “high competition-low cooperation” combination has a greater positive impact than the “low competition-high cooperation” one. (4) This tension mediates the relationship between intra-team co-opetition and employee innovation. (5) A paradox mindset enhances the relationship between learning tension and innovation. The study provides insights on improving employee innovation through intra-team co-opetition, exploring mediation mechanisms and boundary conditions.

团队内合作竞争关系影响员工创新行为的路径与边界:一个有调节的中介模型
创新对于企业的可持续发展和市场竞争力至关重要,而员工扮演着至关重要的角色。目前对员工创新的研究主要集中在个体特征和组织情境上,忽视了竞争与合作。然而,这些因素会影响员工的绩效。本研究通过情景实验和问卷调查发现:(1)团队中竞争与合作的平衡增加了探索性开发学习紧张感。(2)高竞争与高合作的组合比低竞争与低合作的组合更积极地影响这种紧张关系。(3)在矛盾组合中,“高竞争-低合作”组合比“低竞争-高合作”组合具有更大的正向影响。(4)这种张力在团队内部合作竞争与员工创新之间起中介作用。(5)悖论心态增强了学习紧张与创新之间的关系。本研究提供了通过团队内部合作竞争来提高员工创新的见解,探索了中介机制和边界条件。
