Innovation-oriented HRM, TMT reflexivity and organizational change in China: the moderated mediation effect of CEO leader mindfulness

ABSTRACT

Based on self-regulation theory this study proposed a moderated mediation model between innovation-oriented HRM, TMT reflexivity and organizational change, with CEO leader mindfulness as the moderator. A sample of 113 matched data located in China suggested that innovation-oriented HR management is positively related to organizational change via TMT reflexivity. In addition, the results also indicated that CEO leader mindfulness reinforced the indirect effect of TMT reflexivity between Innovation-oriented HRM and organizational change. These findings have important implications for HRM research and managerial practices.
