Human Resource Systems, Employee Creativity, and Firm Innovation: The Moderating Role of Firm Ownership
研究了员工感知的绩效导向和维护导向人力资源系统如何共同影响员工创造力，并发现企业所有权（私有 vs 国有）调节这一关系，最终影响企业创新。
This inter-human resource (HR) systems research investigates whether, how, and when different types of employee-experienced HR systems jointly influence employee creativity. We hypothesize and find that employee-experienced performance-oriented HR systems were more positively related to employee domain-relevant skills when employees experienced stronger maintenance-oriented HR systems. In addition, employee-experienced maintenance-oriented HR systems more strongly augmented the positive relationship between employee-experienced performance-oriented HR systems and domain-relevant skills in privately owned enterprises (POEs) than in state-owned enterprises (SOEs). Employee domain-relevant skills mediated the three-way interactive effect of employee-experienced performance-oriented HR systems, maintenance-oriented HR systems, and firm ownership (POEs vs. SOEs) on employee creativity. Finally, aggregated employee creativity had a stronger positive relationship with firm innovation in POEs than in SOEs. As such, this investigation provides novel theoretical and empirical insights into strategic HR systems, creativity and innovation.
