An Integrated Model of Management Innovation in Transition China

This study combines learning, knowledge management and innovation theory to develop an integrated model of management innovation in transition China. We analyze the model using a structural equation model approach, and 208 manufacturing and service firms in China are selected as the samples of this study. The results conclude that: (1) learning orientation positively affects knowledge energy; (2) learning orientation will significantly impact on management innovation; (3) knowledge energy positively affects management innovation; (4) knowledge energy positively affects performance; (5) management innovation will significantly impact on performance. Finally, implications for researchers and practitioners are presented.
