摘要

鉴于领导实践和知识资源对企业创新能力培养的重要性，本研究的目的是通过知识管理能力的中介作用，探讨变革型领导对剥削性创新和探索性创新的影响。本研究还试图通过考察竞争强度的调节机制来加深对企业追求创新能力的适当机制的理解。设计/方法/方法本研究利用结构方程模型和横断面设计来检验研究模型中的假设，调查数据来自120家制造和服务公司的351名参与者。研究结果表明，变革型领导对探索性创新的影响大于对剥削性创新的影响。知识管理能力在变革型领导与创新能力各方面之间的中介作用也得到了支持。特别是，知识管理能力对探索性创新能力的影响增强，并依赖于竞争激烈程度。未来研究应探讨知识获取、知识共享和知识应用的中介机制，以更深入地了解知识管理能力的具体组成部分在变革型领导与创新能力之间的联系作用。本文强调了变革型领导实践在培养知识管理能力和高水平竞争压力下创新能力的具体方面的重要作用。本文的独特之处是，基于对知识管理能力的中介作用和竞争强度在变革型领导与创新能力具体维度关系中的调节作用的有意义的见解，试图为企业追求和提高创新提供一个前瞻性的解决方案。

Stimulating exploitative and exploratory innovation through transformational leadership and knowledge management capability: the moderating role of competitive intensity

Purpose Given the importance of leadership practices and knowledge resources in fostering innovation capabilities of firms, the purpose of this study is to explore the influence of transformational leadership on exploitative and exploratory innovation via mediating role of knowledge management capability. This study also attempts to increase understanding of the appropriate mechanisms for firms to pursue innovation capability by examining the moderating mechanism of competitive intensity. Design/methodology/approach This study utilized the structural equation modeling and cross-sectional design to test hypotheses in the proposed research model using survey data collected from 351 participants in 120 manufacturing and service firms. Findings The findings indicate that transformational leadership induces greater effect on exploratory innovation compared to its effect on exploitative innovation. The mediating role of knowledge management capability between transformational leadership and aspects of innovation capability is also supported. Especially, the influences of knowledge management capability on exploratory innovation capability are enhanced and depended on the degree of competitive intensity. Research limitations/implications Future research should examine the mediating mechanisms of knowledge acquisition, knowledge sharing and knowledge application to provide deeper insight on the role of specific components of knowledge management capability in linking transformational leadership and innovation capability. Practical implications The paper highlights the important role of transformational leadership practices for fostering knowledge management capability and specific aspects of innovation capability under high level of competitive pressure. Originality/value The paper is unique in the attempts to provide a prospective solution for firms to pursue and improve innovation based on the meaningful insights on the mediating role of knowledge management capability and moderating effect of competitive intensity in the relationship between transformational leadership and specific dimensions of innovation capability.

期刊介绍： The journal addresses a broad range of topics which are relevant to organizations and reflective of societal developments. Public and private sector organizations alike face ongoing pressure to streamline activities, improve efficiency and achieve demanding organizational objectives. In this context, the ability of senior managers to understand the culture and dynamics of organizations and to deliver strong leadership during periods of change, could be the difference between organizational failure and success.
