Influence of Goal Orientation in Performance Appraisal on Staff Innovative Behavior: Mediating Effect of Innovative Climate

摘要：

This article discusses the influence of goal orientation in performance appraisal on staff innovative behavior. Generally, performance appraisal has two kinds of goal orientation, namely evaluation orientation and development orientation. This article proposes a theoretical model in which the team innovation climate is included to examine the relationship between the goal orientation and innovation behavior. A questionnaire survey of 389 on-the-job employees proves that staff innovative behavior is negatively correlated to evaluation orientation, positively correlated to development orientation, and team innovative climate, to some extent, has a mediating effect on staff innovative behavior. Based on the preliminary theories of goal orientation, this research mainly focuses on how enterprises can promote their staff innovative ability thus enhancing better managing performance.
