Study on the Impact of Work Curiosity and Creative Process Engagement to Job Performance—A Theoretical Analysis Framework

随着信息技术的发展,创新对企业的生存与进步至关重要。作为企业的重要组成部分,员工的好奇心与创造性过程投入对工作绩效和企业发展起着关键作用。本文对工作好奇心与创造性过程投入的相关文献进行综述,并结合资源保存理论(COR),探讨工作好奇心、创造性过程投入与工作绩效间的影响,同时引入组织支持感作为调节变量构建了一个理论分析框架。分析发现:工作好奇心促进创造性过程投入与工作绩效;组织支持感在工作好奇心与创造性过程投入间起正向调节作用;创造性过程投入对工作绩效呈倒U型关系,并中介了工作好奇心与工作绩效的关系。本文丰富了我国情境下工作好奇心的研究,揭示了创造性过程投入对工作绩效存在曲线关系的原因,并为管理者培养高好奇心人才、合理运用创造性投入提供了新思路。

With the development of information technology, innovation is crucial to the survival and progress of enterprises. As an important part of enterprises, employees’ curiosity and creative process engagement play a key role in job performance and enterprise development. In this paper, we review the relevant literature on work curiosity and creative process engagement, and combine it with conservation of resources theory (COR) to explore the effects between work curiosity, creative process engagement and job performance, while introducing the perceived organizational support as a moderating variable to construct a theoretical analysis framework. The analysis found that: work curiosity promotes creative process engagement and job performance;perceived organizational support plays a positive moderating role between work curiosity and creative process engagement;and creative process engagement has an inverted U-shape relationship on job performance and mediates the relationship between work curiosity and job performance. This paper enriches the research on work curiosity in our context, reveals the reasons for the curvilinear relationship between creative process engagement on job performance, and provides new ideas for managers to cultivate highly curious talents and rationally utilize creative engagement.
