As part of a special issue on HRM and innovation (guest edited by Helen Shipton, Pawan Budhwar, Paul Sparrow and Alan Brown), our paper that looks into the cross-level interplay among knowledge hiding, team mastery climate and job design in stimulating employees' innovative work behavior was just published in HRMJ. This paper also marks the first common publication (hopefully, of many more to come) with Tomislav Hernaus, colleague from University of Zagreb. Abstract below:

This study investigates the multilevel interplay among team-level, job-related, and individual characteristics in stimulating employees' innovative work behavior (IWB) based on the theoretical frameworks of achievement goal theory (AGT) and job characteristics theory (JCT). A multilevel two-source study of 240 employees and their 34 direct supervisors in two medium-sized Slovenian companies revealed significant two- and three-way interactions, where a mastery climate, task interdependence, and decision autonomy moderated the relationship between knowledge hiding and IWB. When employees hide knowledge, a team mastery climate only facilitates high levels of IWB if accompanied by either high task interdependence or high decision autonomy. In the absence of one of these job characteristics, knowledge hiding prevents higher levels of IWB even in the case of strong team mastery climate. The results suggest that multiple job design antecedents are necessary to neutralize the negative influence of knowledge hiding on micro-innovation processes within organizations.
