Abstract

The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of mindset on innovation behavior through job crafting. Mindset’s effect on innovation behavior was confirmed by comparing the effect of a growth mindset with that of a fixed mindset. The study also verified the moderating effect of informal learning. For this study, a survey was conducted on 261 organizational members at domestic companies. The following is the results of the study: First, analysis of the relationship between a growth mindset and innovation behavior found that a growth mindset did not have a significant and direct effect on innovation behavior. A fixed mindset did not have any direct effect on innovation behavior either. Second, it was found that job crafting had a fully mediating effect on the relationship between a growth mindset and innovation behavior. Likewise, it was confirmed that job crafting had a fully mediating effect on the relationship between a fixed mindset and innovative behavior. Third, it was found that informal learning had a moderating effect on the relationship between a growth mindset and job crafting. On the other hand, it was confirmed that informal learning had no significant moderating effect on the relationship between a fixed mindset and job crafting.
