摘要

尽管一些组织通过实施延伸目标来鼓励员工产生激进的想法,但延伸目标与激进创造力之间的关系十分复杂。遗憾的是,现有研究并未充分解决这一问题。因此,我们将信号传递理论与创造力相关研究相结合,提出伸展目标与认知灵活性之间的相互作用可以预测员工承担风险的意愿,从而影响他们对激进创造活动的参与,并最终影响他们的激进创造力。为了验证我们的假设,我们进行了两项实证研究。结果表明,对于认知灵活性高的员工来说,伸展目标会增强他们承担风险的意愿,从而提高他们对激进创造活动的参与度,增强他们的激进创造力。相反,对于认知灵活性低的员工来说,伸展目标会降低他们承担风险的意愿,从而阻碍他们参与激进创造性活动并提高他们的激进创造性。本研究的理论贡献和实践意义也在讨论之列。

Stretch Goals and Radical Creativity: Cognitive Flexibility as a Key Contingency
Although some organizations encourage employees to generate radical ideas by implementing stretch goals, the relationship between stretch goals and radical creativity is complicated. Unfortunately, existing research has not adequately addressed this issue. Therefore, we integrate signaling theory with creativity-related research and propose that the interaction between stretch goals and cognitive flexibility predicts employees' willingness to take risks, thereby influencing their engagement in radical creative activities and ultimately affecting their radical creativity. To test our hypotheses, we conduct two empirical studies. The results suggest that, for employees with high cognitive flexibility, stretch goals increase their willingness to assume risks, thus leading to improved engagement in radical creative activities and enhancing their radical creativity. Conversely, for employees with low cognitive flexibility, stretch goals decrease their willingness to take risks, which hampers their engagement in radical creative activities and their radical creativity. The theoretical contributions and practical implications of this study are also discussed.
