Abstract

The rapidly changing business environment requires small and medium-sized suppliers to develop creative new products. Therefore, many previous studies have attempted to identify important factors for successful new product development. However, despite the importance of firm learning has generated considerable interest in new product development, the central issue of firm learning remains unanswered. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of adaptive learning of small and medium suppliers on creativity and new product performance in new product development. As a result, it was confirmed that adaptive learning positively affects both novelty creativity and meaningfulness creativity. On the other hand, meaningfulness creativity has a positive effect on new product performance, but novelty creativity has no effect on new product performance.

최근 급변하는 경영환경은 중소공급업체들에게 시장기반을 토대로 한 창의적인 신제품 개발을 요구하고 있다. 따라서 많은 선행연구들은 성공적인 신제품 개발을 위한 핵심적인 전략요인을 파악하기 위해 노력한다. 하지만 신제품 성공에 영향을 미치는 전략적 요인 중 신제품 창의성을 증대시키는 기업의 시장기반 학습역량과 그 역할에 대한 연구는 매우 미흡하다. 따라서 본 연구는 신제품 개발에 있어 중소공급업체의 적응적 학습이 창의성 및 신제품 성과에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여, 국내 시장에서 신제품을 출시한 경험이 있는 기업을 대상으로 실증 분석하였다. 분석결과, 적응적 학습은 신제품 창의성 요인인 참신적 창의성과 유용적 창의성 모두에게 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 한편, 신제품 창의성과 신제품 성과 간의 관계에 있어 유용적 창의성은 신제품 성과에 긍정적 영향을 미치나, 참신적 창의성은 신제품 성과에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다.
