The Impact of Goal Orientation on the Innovative Behavior: Centered on the Mediating Effect of Knowledge Sharing

The purpose of the study is to investigate the impact of goal orientation on the innovative behavior through the mediating role of knowledge sharing. The result of the study is as follows. First, learning goal orientation has a significant, positive impact on the knowledge sharing. Second, learning goal orientation has a significant, positive impact on innovative behavior. Third, the mediating variable, knowledge sharing has a partial mediating effect on the relationship between learning goal orientation and innovative behavior, but do not mediate the relationship between performance approach goal orientation and innovative behavior. The result showed that performance approach goal orientation does not have a significant impact on both knowledge sharing and innovative behavior not like learning goal orientation. These imply that knowledge sharing and innovative behavior could not be gained easily through raising personal characteristics. Instead, learning goal orientation should be leveled up to increase knowledge sharing and innovative behavior of employees. In addition, results suggested that, to effectively draw knowledge sharing and innovative behavior from employees with goal orientation, structural factors like organizational culture or social learning culture should be considered to fit with individual factors.
