Impact of Internal and External Network Synergy on Exploratory Innovation of R&D Personnel:Knowledge Creation Perspective
By improving the SECI model,this paper clarifies the transfer,integration,and creation of knowledge resources in individuals'internal and external networks and empirically examines the microcosmic process of the influence of R&D personnel's internal and external network synergy on exploratory innovation.The results indicate that R&D personnel's rela-tional strength can significantly improve exploratory performance,but the depth and breadth of knowledge search has a sig-nificant inverted U-shaped relationship with exploratory innovation.Furthermore,external knowledge searching can im-prove the integration ability of internal and external knowledge,yet when the breadth and depth of knowledge search is too high,it can inhibit the integration of internal and external knowledge.Heterogeneity analysis shows that in the process of"knowledge search-knowledge integration",R&D personnel in different positions have significant differences.
