How Can Enterprises Implement Strategic Goal-oriented Original Innovation?A Comparative Study Based on Two Cases
Original innovation serves as the motivity for technological advancement and business transformation,and plays a crucial role in driving sustainable development of enterprises.Based on the premise of strategic goal orientation,this study based on two enterprise samples of Huawei and iFlytek,examine their respective approaches to original innovation and uncovers the internal mechanisms that drive innovative practices within these organizations.It is found that enterprise-led original innovation falls within the Pasteur Quadrant innovation behavior,which is mainly divided into strategic long-term goal-oriented innovation and cutting-edge innovation oriented to knowledge application.These two models differ greatly in terms of support methods,behavior orientation,development goals and organizational modes.The original innovation ability of enterprises is essentially reflected as the endogenous evolution of"knowledge focusing ability→ knowledge integration ability→ knowledge re-creation ability",and continues to advance along the path of"joint intelligence introduction → independent research and development→ open cooperation".The findings of this research may provide theoretical support and decision-making guidance for enterprises to pursue original innovation.
