摘要

开放创新（OI）已成为成功企业的重要商业规范；然而，它的战略方面以及关键个人（如首席执行官）在其采用过程中的作用一直没有得到充分的研究。本文旨在研究OI是否与中小企业相关，以及CEO特征如何通过OI影响企业绩效。利用韩国401家创新型中小企业的数据，采用结构方程模型（SEM）分析了企业与CEO特征之间的层次关系。研究结果表明：1）开放性对企业绩效的贡献较大；2） CEO特征与开放性呈正相关；3）政府支持对开放性和内部研发都有积极影响。研究表明，中小企业的人的因素应该更加重视OI，以提高企业绩效，政策制定者应该考虑为中小企业的关键决策者制定各种计划，以提高他们对OI的认识。

The hierarchical relationships between CEO characteristics, innovation strategy and firm performance in open innovation

Open innovation (OI) has become an important business norm of successful firms; however, its strategic aspects and the role of a key individual, such as a chief executive officer (CEO) in its adoption, have been under-researched. This paper aims to investigate whether OI is relevant to SMEs and how CEO characteristics influence firm performance through OI. The hierarchical relationships between a firm and CEO characteristics are analysed with structural equation modelling (SEM) using data from 401 innovation-oriented SMEs in Korea. The results indicate that: 1) openness can make a greater contribution to firm performance; 2) CEO characteristics are positively associated with openness; 3) government support positively influences both openness and internal R&D. The research suggests that the human elements in SMEs should place a greater emphasis on OI to enhance firm performance and that policy makers should consider developing various programs for key decision makers in SMEs to increase their awareness of OI.
