Abstract

PurposeThis research aimed to conceptualize organizations as open and purposeful systems to study how organizational culture (OC) influences firms' Innovative Performance (IP). The authors proposed goal setting and internal integration/external adaptation paradox as central to explaining OC's mediating and suppressing effects on IP.Design/methodology/approachThe authors collected data from 372 Costa Rican organizations and analyzed them with structural equations. This research used the Denison Model instead of the usual typology-based approaches.FindingsThe mission had a direct and high impact on IP. The mediated effect via adaptability was also elevated, as well as the suppressor effect through consistency. There was no effect on IP of involvement. According to these results, the Open and Rational Systems Framework emerge as the main theoretical explanatory concepts.Originality/valueDisaggregating the OC through a performance-oriented dimensional model makes it possible to study the dynamics between the elements that compound it and facilitate integrating these findings with other research streams.

组织文化与创新：探索“黑匣子”

目的本研究旨在将组织概念化为开放和有目的的系统，以研究组织文化（OC）如何影响企业的创新绩效（IP）。作者提出目标设定和内部整合/外部适应悖论是解释OC对IP的中介和抑制作用的核心。设计/方法/方法作者收集了372个哥斯达黎加组织的数据，并用结构方程对其进行了分析。这项研究使用了Denison模型，而不是通常的基于类型学的方法。发现该任务对知识产权产生了直接和高度的影响。通过适应性的介导作用以及通过一致性的抑制作用也得到了提高。参与对知识产权没有影响。根据这些结果，开放理性系统框架成为主要的理论解释概念。独创性/价值通过以性能为导向的维度模型分解OC，可以研究构成OC的元素之间的动力学，并有助于将这些发现与其他研究流相结合。
