Abstract:Innovation is one of the basic assets needed for organizations to survive<em> </em>in a competitive environment. Organizations such as higher education also need strong innovation in order to continue to compete and produce high-quality graduates. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence the innovative behavior of lecturers, especially based on organizational learning and organizational commitment. The research was conducted at STIK-PTIK with a sample of 108 lecturers who were taken ra… Show more
“…The need to simultaneously adapt to the present circumstances and reimagining the future demands that organisational leaders adopt paradoxical thinking and action all the time. The study results confirm earlier findings that have reported intimate links between organisational learning capabilities and innovative behaviour (Khaki et al , 2017; Wahyuni et al , 2021; also see Alegre et al , 2012; Onağ et al , 2014; Urban and Gaffurini, 2017).…”
Purpose
This study aims to answer pertinent questions related to the quality of the organisational learning capability measurement model.
Design/methodology/approach
A time-separated design informed data collection. The organisational learning capability was exposed to classical higher-order and bifactor confirmatory factor analyses. Multigroup confirmatory factor analysis facilitated measurement invariance testing. This study assessed the predictive validity of the organisational learning capability subscales using hierarchical regression analysis.
Findings
This study replicated the second-order organisational learning capability model with four subscales. Bifactor modelling confirmed the multidimensionality of the organisational learning capability. The organisational learning capability was invariant between gender groups. The organisational learning capability subscales accounted for a significant variance in innovative work behaviour.
Practical implications
The organisational learning capability exhibits robust properties, making it a plausible option for monitoring the quality of organisational learning. Organisations must appreciate the quality of this dynamic capability and leverage it to generate new sources of value.
Originality/value
This study fills a critical gap in organisational learning-related capabilities in sub-Saharan African contexts, providing a base to influence innovation-related trajectories positively.

“…Some scholars (Bunce & West, 1995;Janssen, 2000;Scott & Bruce, 1994;Messmann & Mulder, 2020) advocate the unidimensionality of IWB, which is criticized by others advancing its multidimensionality. Some (Zainal & Mohd Matore, 2021); organizational learning and organizational commitment (Wahyuni et al, 2021); well-being (Ibrahim et al, 2021); hope (Namono et al, 2021); human resource practices (Zreen et al, 2021); digital learning orientation and readiness for change (Aboobaker & Zakkariya, 2021); reflection (Messmann & Mulder, 2015); and leadership style (Khan et al, 2020).

“…Despite the importance of IWB in higher education institutions, studies have only recently tried to identify the predictors and determinants thereof, such as job autonomy, reward and recognition and work engagement (Dixit & Upadhyay, 2021); job autonomy and job commitment (Baharuddin et al, 2019); management support and exposure to innovation (Lambriex‐Schmitz et al, 2020b); teachers' self‐efficacy and school administrators' transformational leadership practices (Zainal & Mohd Matore, 2021); organizational learning and organizational commitment (Wahyuni et al, 2021); well‐being (Ibrahim et al, 2021); hope (Namono et al, 2021); human resource practices (Zreen et al, 2021); digital learning orientation and readiness for change (Aboobaker & Zakkariya, 2021); reflection (Messmann & Mulder, 2015); and leadership style (Khan et al, 2020). Although these studies hint at the importance of job autonomy and exposure to innovation among other factors as key predictors of IWB, none explore how compulsory NWW practices during COVID‐19 are related to faculty members' IWB in higher education institutions.…”
This study examined the relationship between compulsory new ways of working (flexible work design, workplace design at home, advanced information and communication technology [ICT]‐based communications and culture of innovation) and faculty members' innovative work behaviour. The mediating role of work–life balance and employees' satisfaction with new ways of working in the relationship between new ways of working and innovative work behaviour was also examined. Building on established measurement scales, a questionnaire‐based deductive approach was used to collect data. In total, 457 faculty members were randomly selected from universities in countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council. New ways of work and innovative work behaviour were confirmed as multidimensional concepts. The study participants were clustered in three profiles according to their level of perception of the research variables. New ways of working practices apart from advanced ITC‐based communications were significantly positively related to innovative work behaviour, and work–life balance was significantly positively related to satisfaction. Satisfaction with new ways of working and work–life balance is a vital mechanism of innovative work behaviour, and satisfaction mediates work–life balance and innovative work behaviour. Our research theoretically extends understanding of the compulsory new ways of working and innovative work behaviour in higher education institutions. It provides insights into how new ways of working affect innovative behaviour via two mediating mechanisms: work–life balance and satisfaction. This contingent perspective has not yet been explored in prior studies. Educational policy and decision makers can benefit from the results of this study by reorganizing their work activities according to faculty members' need to foster innovative educational solutions.
“…Based on the definition of organizational commitment, we can confirm that there is a positive relationship between organizational commitment and employees' innovative behaviors (Jafri, 2010). Wahyuni et al (2021) found that organizational learning and organizational commitment have a positive direct impact on innovative behavior. According to the discussion above, the following hypothesis was derived in this study: H4: Organizational commitment plays a mediating role between pay satisfaction and innovative behavior.…”

This study examined the relationship between pay satisfaction and the innovative behavior of employees. It also examined whether self-efficacy and organizational commitment positively mediate the above relationship. In addition, the moderating role of social comparison orientation in the relationship between self-efficacy and innovative behavior is examined. Using SPSS 25.0 software to analyze 305 questionnaires presented to employees, the main hypotheses were tested. The result of the analysis showed that pay satisfaction has a significant positive relationship with innovative behavior of employees. The results also showed that self-efficacy and organizational commitment partially mediated the relationship between pay satisfaction and employee innovative behavior. Moreover, there was a negative moderating effect of social comparison orientation on the relationship between employee self-efficacy and innovative behavior.
