In this context, innovation and entrepreneurship have become an important way to help China's economic restructuring and provide new impetus for China's economic development. Promoting "dual innovation" has become an inevitable choice for China, with its huge economic volume, to promote factor flow and enhance economic efficiency. According to the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) report, China's entrepreneurial activity is increasing year by year and has become one of the most active countries in terms of entrepreneurship. The increasing challenges faced by companies and the uncertainties in the market environment are driving companies to explore their potential in order to keep pace with the knowledge economy. If companies want to stay in this challenging environment and maintain a competitive edge, they must constantly stimulate the creativity of their employees, which is fundamental to their innovative performance. Therefore, to stimulate employees' creativity is to find strategies and methods to enhance the innovative behavior of highly knowledgeable employees.
The main objective of this paper is to conduct a theoretical and empirical study on the relationship between person-environment fit (person-organization fit, person-job fit, and person-leadership fit) and employee creativity, and on this basis to explore the mediating role of work passion (harmonious work passion and obsessive work passion) on the above relationship, and finally to make suggestions and recommendations for HRM practice based on the empirical findings.
The article further translates the above research questions into the following: First, the relationship between person-environment fit and employee creativity is investigated. Based on Lewin's "field theory" and Schneider's "attraction-selection-friction" theory, this study illustrates that employee behavior is the result of the interaction between person and environmental characteristics, and explains that in the process of mutual selection between employees and organization environment, people become increasingly homogeneous. Such homogenization will bring increasingly clear organization environment characteristics and certain organization atmosphere, which in turn can affect the attitude and behavior of employees. On this basis, the study explores whether person-environment fit can enhance the creativity of knowledgeable employees, and further explores the impact of "dynamic fit" on employee creativity. Second, the relationship between work passion and employees' creativity is investigated. Based on self-determination theory, the study explores whether harmonious work passion and obsessive work passion have an impact on the creativity of Knowledge employees. Third, it explores the mediating role of harmonious work passion and obsessive work passion in the relationship between person-environment fit and knowledge employees' creativity. The elaboration of this relationship is based on Deci and Ryan's self-determination theory and empirical studies by Greguras (2009), Liu and Chen (2011) . According to Greguras (2009), person-organization fit can According to Greguras (2009), organization fit can bring about the satisfaction of three basic person psychological needs: a sense of autonomy, a sense of competence, and a sense of belonging, and the satisfaction of these three basic psychological needs can lead to the satisfaction of different levels of person motivation, and the satisfaction of motivation can lead to changes in person cognition, emotion, and behavior. Based on this logic, this paper explores the role of work passion in mediating the relationship between each variable of person-environment fit and employee creativity.
The empirical study of the above proposition takes university graduates of different levels in Shanxi Province as the sample because, in the era of knowledge-based economy, which is dominated by technological innovation, knowledge has become the guiding force for enterprises to create huge profits. At the same time, knowledge-based employees, as the carriers of knowledge, are the core of enterprises' competition, and the results they create are crucial to the survival and development of enterprises. Therefore, how to improve the creativity of knowledge-based employees has become the focus of scholars' research. At present, Chinese enterprises are facing various pressures brought by knowledge transformation and economic globalization, and they can only survive in the complex and fierce environment if they continuously innovate their products and services. In the study of innovation, the perspective chosen for this study is "employee creativity". This is because we are in an era of "mass entrepreneurship and innovation", and the key to building an innovative country is to enhance the ability of technological innovation. Innovation is an inevitable requirement for enterprises to maintain their survival and competitive advantage, and almost all organizations regard innovation as the core competitiveness for sustainable development. And employee creativity is the source of organization innovation, regardless of which innovation, all the foundations come from individual creativity. The result of innovation extends from the individual to the team and finally to the organization.
The study used literature analysis method, in-depth interview method and questionnaire survey. Twenty university graduates were interviewed in depth, and 400 valid questionnaires were collected from graduates of each position. This paper uses SPSS and AMOS software to analyze the obtained data empirically through factor analysis, descriptive statistical analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, regression analysis, bootstrap and other methods. The results showed that 15 of the 17 hypotheses proposed in this study were supported, and the main findings included: (1) Person-organization fit (β=0.150, p<0.001), person-job fit (β=0.243, p<0.001), and person-leadership fit (β=0.159, p<0.001) have a direct and significant positive influence on employee creativity; (2) Person-organization fit (β=0.149, p<0.001), person-job fit (β=0.275, p<0.001) and person-leadership fit (β=0.293, p<0.001) had a significant positive influence on harmonious work passion; person-organization fit (β=0.158, p<0.001), person-job fit (β=0.242, p< 0.001) and person-leadership fit (β=0.261, p<0.001) had a significant positive influence on obsessive work passion; (3) The results of the study showed that harmonious work passion (β=0.544, p<0.001), obsessive work passion (β=0.691, p<0.001 ) had a significant positive influence on employee creativity; (4) Harmonious work passion fully mediates between person-job fit, person-leadership fit and employee creativity, and partially mediates between person-organization fit and employee creativity; obsessive work passion is fully mediated between person-job fit, person-leadership fit and employee creativity and partially mediated between person-organization fit and employee creativity.
Exploring the impact of person-environment interactions on employee creativity enables organizations to understand how to create the right work environment and help employees to maximize their creativity, which will not only benefit the development of the organization, but also help employees to better demonstrate their value, thus achieving a win-win situation. | Curricular : | BBA/GE/MBA/PhDM | Record link: | http://libsearch.siu.ac.th/siu/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=28452 |
