Research on the Influential Path of High Performance Work System on Employees' Breakthrough Innovation Behavior

Abstract

High performance work system is an enterprise work practice system based on the open innovation mode. It is an important driving force for the organization to carry out and implement knowledge search, actively acquire external knowledge, carry out knowledge diffusion, promote knowledge innovation and achieve breakthrough innovation. Under the national strategic goal of innovation-driven development, radical innovation is regarded as the core force for developing countries to realize leapfrog catch-up and transform from factor driven and investment driven to innovation-driven and knowledge-driven. For enterprises, breakthrough innovation is the key to achieve connotative growth. Therefore, this study explores the mechanism and influence path of high performance work system to promote employees' radical innovation behavior by constructing the structural equation model of high performance work system. The results show that high performance work system has a significant positive effect on employees' radical innovation behavior, and knowledge absorption and knowledge diffusion play a mediating role. Therefore, this study suggests that enterprises can stimulate employees' creative thinking and innovation ability by building a high performance work system, so as to achieve technological and knowledge breakthrough innovation and ensure sustainable development of enterprises.
