摘要
数字平台如何赋能企业实现颠覆式创新是数字经济背景下管理者关注的焦点问题.本文基于平台生态系统理论和动态能力理论,以209家自建或桥接数字平台的中国高新技术企业数据为研究样本,深入探究数字平台能力对颠覆式创新的影响及作用机理.研究发现,数字平台能力能够显著促进颠覆式创新.进一步研究发现,组织结构敏捷性和舍却式学习在数字平台能力和颠覆式创新之间起部分中介作用,一方面数字平台赋能塑造结构敏捷性,打破僵化的组织惯例,识别并服务新兴细分市场,另一方面数字平台赋能组织进行舍却式学习,打破原有的知识路径依赖,获取颠覆式创新所需的互补性知识.组织结构敏捷性是舍却式学习的前因变量,组织结构敏捷性和舍却式学习在数字平台能力与颠覆式创新之间起到链式中介作用.本文丰富了平台情境下高新技术企业颠覆式创新的形成机制,从微观视角回答了高新技术企业进行颠覆式创新需要培育哪些能力的现实问题,为数字化转型背景下企业利用数字平台实现颠覆式创新提供了理论参考.
How digital platforms enable enterprises to achieve disruptive innovation is a key concern for managers in the context of the platform economy.Building on the literature on platform ecosystem and dynamic capability,we explore the effect of digital platform capabilities on disruptive innovation.Leveraging data from 209 Chinese high-tech enterprises that have either developed their digital platforms or integrated with existing ones,we find that digital platform capabilities have a significantly positive impact on disruptive innovation.We further show that structural flexibility and organizational unlearning partially mediate the relationship between digital platform capabilities and disruptive innovation.Specifically,digital platforms empower shaping structural flexibility,dismantling rigid organizational routines,and identifying emerging niche markets targeted for disruptive innovation on the one hand.On the other hand,they facilitate organizational unlearning,breaking away from existing knowledge path dependencies,and acquiring complementary knowledge required for disruptive innovation.Additionally,structural flexibility has a significant positive impact on organizational unlearning,and both factors serve as chain mediators between digital platform capabilities and disruptive innovation.This study deepens our understanding of the formation mechanisms behind disruptive innovation in high-tech enterprises within the platform economy framework.It addresses the practical question of which capabilities high-tech enterprises need to cultivate for disruptive innovation from a micro perspective.These insights provide valuable theoretical guidance for enterprises seeking to leverage digital platforms for achieving disruptive innovation in the context of ongoing digital transformation.
