  • 動態而變化的環境是企業所需應付的一大挑戰。面對快速變化的市場,適應性是企業發展的重要能力。除此之外,企業更應著手於創新才能夠獲得來自於目標市場的機會以及對其競爭對手設立競爭障礙。由此可見公司要獲得高績效的目標來自於創新。而企業該如何創新? 本文由創新的前提;市場導向、學習導向以及創業導向開始探討,同時從過去文獻較少著墨的適應性來驗證其中介效果,並將適應性連結到創新以及績效的架構;希望透過此實證性的研究能夠對於影響創新以及績效的因素有更進一步的瞭解。
    本研究以台灣高科技產業上市公司為研究對象,採取分層隨機抽樣選取250 間公司,每一間公司發放3 份問卷,並以電子郵件方式發放750 份問卷,實際回收181 份有效問卷,回收率為24.1%。被訪者主要為公司新產品或新流程的決策人員如專案管理師,RD工程師或業務主管,一半以上是超過1000位員工的公司。
    實證結果發現下列因素之間彼此皆具有顯著的正向關係 (1) 市場導向、學習導向、創業導向跟創新 (2) 適應性與創新 (3) 創新和績效 (4) 市場導向、學習導向、創業導向以及適應性 (5) 適應性的中介效果-適應性分別在市場導向、學習導向、創業導向跟創新之間有中介效果。

    The dynamic turbulent environment is a big challenge for firms to cope with. Adaptability to face the fast changing market is a fundamental capability for firms to develop. Furthermore, firms should initiate innovativeness to target market opportunities and set barriers for their competitors. Firms aim to be innovative and goal oriented while achieving high performance. How do firms become innovative? We will start the investigation from the antecedents of innovativeness; market orientation, learning orientation and entrepreneurial orientation. Scholars have not stressed a lot on adaptability, therefore this research aims to verify the mediating effect of adaptability and link it to the innovativeness and performance construct. In addition, some hypotheses were made according to prior research. Hoping that through empirical testing, we can we can have a further understanding on what impact innovativeness and performance respectively.
    We used the random stratified sampling method and chose 250 Taiwanese high-tech public firms, listed in the TEJ database. Of the 750 questionnaires e-mailed, 181 were completed yielding a response rate of 24.1%. Most of the respondents worked in PM, R&D and sales and are involved in decision making for new product development and new procedures. Half of the analysis companies are organizations with over 1000 employees.
    The regression results strongly support positive relationships between (1) market orientation, learning orientation, entrepreneurial orientation and innovativeness (2) adaptability and innovativeness (3) innovativeness and performance (4) market orientation, learning orientation, entrepreneurial orientation and adaptability (5) market orientation, learning orientation, entrepreneurial orientation and innovativeness by the mediating effect of adaptability.
