The impact of structural capital components on management innovation implementation: PLS-SEM application on portuguese healthcare professionals
| Resumo: | This empirical study investigates the impact of structural capital components on the implementation of management innovations in the Portuguese healthcare sector, with a specific focus on nurses. Utilizing data collected from the Nurse Portuguese Association through an electronic survey, the study employs Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to analyze the relationships between structural capital dimensions and management innovation implementation. The research identifies three key dimensions of structural capital: organizational trust, innovation procedures, and innovation culture. The PLS-SEM analysis reveals that these dimensions exert a positive and significant influence on the implementation of management innovations, both directly and indirectly through mediation effects. The findings suggest that organizational trust plays a crucial role in shaping innovation culture and procedures, which in turn affect the adoption of management innovations. However, the study's focus on nursesfrom a single professional association limits the generalizability of the findings. Nonetheless, the research provides valuable insights into the factors that influence innovation adoption in healthcare and offers practical implications for fostering a more innovative management culture within healthcare organizations. |
