Abstract

In order to find the factors that influence behaviors for innovative work performance, this study tried to examine the relationship between organizational justice perceived by SME employees and IT support for differentiation on innovative behavior through knowledge exploitation and exploration. A survey was conducted on employees of SME, and the research hypothesis was verified using SPSS 22.0 and PLS 3.0 by analyzing the final 239 copies. As a result of the study, organizational justice and IT support showed a positive effect on knowledge exploitation and exploration, and knowledge exploitation and exploration had a positive effect on innovation behavior. Through this study, the theoretical foundation for organizational justice to influence knowledge exploitation and main search was established and the theoretical and practical implications for enhancing the competitiveness of the enterprise were presented through a comprehensive analysis of the two variables, organizational justice and IT support, which affect the innovation behavior of SMEs. Future research will require to study the performance part due to innovative behavior using various variables.

본 연구는 혁신적인 업무수행을 위한 행동에 영향을 미치는 요인을 찾기 위해 중소기업 직원들이 지각하는 조직공정성과 차별화된 IT지원이 지식활용 및 탐색을 통하여 혁신행동에 미치는 영향 관계를 살펴보고자 하였다. 중소기업 직원들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고, 최종 239부의 설문을 분석하여 SPSS 22.0과 PLS 3.0을 사용하여 연구가설을 검증하였다. 연구결과 조직공정성과 IT지원은 지식활용 및 탐색에 긍정적인 영향으로 나타났고, 지식활용 및 탐색은 혁신행동에 긍정적인 영향을 나타냈다. 본 연구를 통하여 조직공정성이 지식활용 및 지식탐색에 영향을 미치는 이론적 토대를 마련하였고, 중소기업의 혁신행동에 영향을 미치는 조직공정성과 IT지원이라는 두 변수의 종합적인 분석을 통하여 기업의 경쟁력을 높이는 이론적 및 실무적 시사점을 제시하고자 하였다. 향후 연구에서는 혁신행동으로 인한 성과부분과 관련한 다양한 변수를 활용한 연구가 필요하다.
