Abstract

How to optimize the organizational structure from the perspective of technological innovation and form the dynamic ability of enterprises is a highly concerned issue of the academia and the industry. In this paper, we analyze the internal mechanism of the influence of organizational structure selection on dynamic capability from the perspective of technological innovative enterprises. This paper constructs a model of the influence of organizational structure innovation on the formation of enterprise dynamic capability based on technology innovation, Using SPSS21.0 and referring to the maturity scale of organizational structure, dynamic capability and technological innovation, 211 valid sample data are empirically tested. The results show that the change of organizational structure has a significant effect on the dynamic capability of enterprises, that is, the flat organizational structure will positively affect the absorptive capacity, integration capability and innovation capability. Organizational structure virtualization positively affects absorption capability, integration capability, and innovation capability. Technological innovation has a positive moderating effect on the positive relationship between organizational structure and dynamic capability. The research conclusion can help enterprises to attach importance to the innovation of organizational structure and technology innovation, and improve the continuous competitive advantage of enterprises.
