组织的知识包括顾客知识、竞争者知识、技术知识等不同类型,不同类型的知识在新产品创新过程中起着不同的作用,并且会受到跨部门协调的影响。文章基于长三角地区143家企业的问卷调查数据,实证考查了不同类型的组织知识是如何影响企业新产品创新绩效的,及跨部门协调在二者关系中的调解作用。结果表明:(1)顾客知识对新产品市场表现有显著正向影响,但对新产品创新效率没有显著影响;(2)竞争者知识对新产品创新效率有显著正向影响,但对新产品市场表现没有显著影响;(3)技术知识对新产品市场表现和创新效率都有显著正向影响;(4)跨部门协调正向调解技术知识与创新绩效的关系。研究结果对于企业怎样提升新产品创新绩效具有重要的启示意义。
