How does the second-order learning process moderate the relationship between innovation inputs and outputs of large Korean firms?

摘要: We investigate how the second-order learning process moderates relationship between innovation performance and two types of knowledge seeking behavior, namely exploration exploitation. reinvestigate top 100 Korean firms from 1997 to 2007 by capturing CEO turnover, board R&D alliances. argue that current findings about exploitation should be reclassified in terms input output. suggest researchers organizational understand link inputs outputs. Our empirical results show while are not related exploratory outputs, reshapes both exploration/exploitation type new focus can refine literature.
