This study aims to empirically analyze the effects of the learning organization characteristics in public libraries on the innovative work behavior of librarians. In this analysis, 113 librarians from 15 public libraries in the Seoul Metropolitan Area of South Korea were surveyed to investigate the learning organization characteristics of libraries and innovative work behavior. Through a multiple regression analysis of learning organization characteristics and innovative work behavior, it was found that, among the sub-factors of learning organization characteristics, creating continuous learning opportunities and creating systems to capture and share learning had a positive effect on idea realization among the sub-factors of innovative work behavior. From this, it was interpreted that public libraries should increase financial and non-financial support for librarians to learn and also that libraries should create various systems such as electronic bulletin boards and meetings in which librarians can share their learning. Moreover, the sub-factors of learning organization characteristics were found to have no effect on idea generation and idea promotion among the sub-factors of innovative work behavior, which indicated that it will be necessary to identify the organization characteristics that affect idea generation and idea promotion. This study is significant in that it identified the sub-factors of learning organization characteristics that promote the innovative work behavior of public library librarians.

This study was conducted to investigate whether WGB (Work-Growth Balance), an area of WLB (Work-Life Balance) improves Interpersonal Harmony, Creative Effort and Innovative Behavior in the organization, and whether Interpersonal Harmony and Creative Efforts have indirect effects on the relationship between WGB and Innovative Behavior. To test the hypothesis of this study, PROCESS Macro by Hayes (2013) was used. The results showed that WGB, Interpersonal Harmony, and Creative Effort influenced Innovative Behavior and WGB were variables that influenced Interpersonal Harmony. The variables influencing Creative Effort turned out to be WGB and Interpersonal Harmony. The indirect effect of Interpersonal Harmony and Creative Efforts was also confirmed in the relationship between WGB and Innovative Behavior. In addition, the magnitude of the effect between parameters was examined through Process Macro analysis. It turned out that there is a synergy relationship between WGB, Interpersonal Harmony, Creative Efforts and Innovative Behaviors. In future, more researches on WGB among various industries as well as mediating variables are expected. Further research is needed to study the various parameters of WGB and innovation behavior, and to Balance of Work-Family and Balance of Work-Leisure.

This study aims to analyze the influence of religiosity, spiritual leadership, and work-life balance and its impact on innovative behavior through the mediating effect of employee engagement on the state-owned sharia bank of Central Java Province. The total sample of this study is 226 respondents taken from state-owned sharia bank in 6 Regencies/Cities in the former Karisedenan of Central Java. Samples are taken using a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique is using the division of regions based on clusters (cities) and is carried out using a purposive sampling method. The results indicate that the indirect influence of all independent variables on innovative behavior through the mediating effect of employee engagement is found to be significant. This study views employee engagement from the perspective of religiosity-based social exchange theory so that religious values in the interaction relationship can be fairly applied and respected by the employees of the state-owned sharia bank. Managers can socialize the importance of spirit behavior to employees so that it can be their everyday attitude and becomes their guide for work. Leaders can become role models in straightening intentions while working as well as conditioning the conscience to always think positively at work by strengthening work engagement in sharia banking institutions.

The purpose of this study is to examine whether organizational justice, including procedural justice and distributive justice, improve employees' innovative behavior through work engagement and knowledge sharing. In addition, it was conducted to investigate whether work engagement and knowledge sharing indirectly affect the relationship between organizational justice and innovative behavior. For the hypothesis test of this study, Hayes (2018) PROCESS Macro was used. Result of the analysis shows that procedural justice, work engagement, and knowledge sharing influenced innovative behavior. The constructs influencing work engagement were procedural justice, distributive justice, knowledge sharing. Also, procedural justice and work engagement were constructs that affected knowledge sharing. In the relationship between procedural justice and innovative behavior, the indirect effect was confirmed in all paths. In the relationship between the distributive justice and the innovative behavior, It was confirmed that there is not the indirect effect only in the path via knowledge sharing. he indirect effect was confirmed in all paths that did not acquire knowledge sharing. In addition, through the PROCESS Macro analysis, we examined the magnitude of the indirect effect of various paths between mediators. The results show that organizational justice can have the greatest effect on innovative behavior through work engagement. The weakness of respondents control by SNS survey is the major limitation of this study. In the future, Further research is needed depending on the nature of the organization, such as the analysis of differences between various industries.

Purpose - This study attempted to identify any influencing relationships, between the antecedent variables and the members' innovative work behavior, which were expected to influence organizational performance based on the extended theory of planned behavior (ETPB). Research design, data, and methodology - The survey was conducted on SMEs in Seoul and its metropolitan area. A total of 158 copies of effective questionnaires were used and were analyzed through correlation analysis, regression analysis, and multiple regression. Results - Self-efficacy, value, intrinsic motivation, and self-enhancing bias have been found to have a positive relationship with innovative work behavior. In addition, transformational leadership was found to moderate the existence of a statistically significant negative influence between value, intrinsic motivation, and innovative work behavior. Conclusions - The results suggest that leaders will be successful in winning members' trust through conducting their behaviors in accordance with the applicable ethical and moral standards and through their fair, transparent, and legitimate management practices with an attitude of 'taking the initiative and setting an example', and this will help solve such problems.

Major business journals have been annually announced '100 best companies to work for'. These companies have some characteristics having not only high organization performance but also various benefit programs such as job satisfaction, organization commitment, work-family balance and positive psychology. When people have job satisfaction, organization commitment, and happiness, it will increase the positive psychology of people. Therefore, in this study, we examined the moderating effect of work-family facilitation between occupational well-being and innovative behavior. For the empirical analysis, the survey was executed on employees of 11 companies in IT, Service, and Manufacturing business field. The analysis result is as follows. First, occupational well-being gives positive(+) influence on innovative behavior. Second, the control effect of work-family facilitation in the relationship between occupational well-being and innovative behavior was significant according to statistics. The conclusion states the implications and limitations of this study, and suggests directions on future studies.

Purpose - This study aims to measure the influence of the positive psychological capital (PPC) of business workers by using innovative work behavior (IWB) and the influence of Leader-member exchange (LMX) and Member-member exchange (MMX) in this relation and investigating the directional efforts of small and medium company leaders and members. Research Design, Data, and Methodology - This study selects PPC as an integrated superior concept to establish research models and hypotheses of the influence of PPC on IWB, and the influence of LMX and MMX in these relations. Of the questionnaires distributed, 373 valid questionnaires were collected in total. Results - It was confirmed that the PPC of workers has a statistically significant influence on LMX, MMX, and IWB. Moreover, LMX and MMX have similar influence on worker life satisfaction with life satisfaction and innovative work behavior having different dimensions. Conclusion - To enhance IWB, worker PPC is very important as it has significant influence on the relations with leaders. However, it is also notable that positive relations with colleagues did not influence IWB.

Over recent years, there have been more comprehensive studies conducted word-widely on the WLB covering not only the conflicting relationships between work and life but also facilitating relationships between work and life, in a method of classifying whether a conflict or a facilitation was derived from the work or from the life. However, such studies are hardly identified in Korea. The objective of this study is, therefore, to examine the effect of the WLB on innovative behavior in Korean society, when the WLB are subdivided into three sub-variables defined as work-life conflict, life -work conflict, and work-life facilitation, and to determine the mediated effect of psychological well-being(hedonic well-being and eudaimonic well-being). The hypothesis was verified using factor analysis, descriptive statistics, and regression analysis in questionnaires collected from 299 office workers. As a result, the study found that work-life conflict and work-life facilitation significantly effected psychological well-being and innovative behavior. However, life-work conflict was not a significant factor on hedonic well-being and innovative behavior. In addition, eudaimonic well-being showed mediating effect to the relationship between WLB and innovative behavior, while hedonic well-being did not effectively mediate them.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to identify causal factors for continuous innovative behavior and devise a plan for effective member management by improving continuous innovative behavior. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was filled out by 190 clinical dental hygienists from June 1 to July 31, 2019. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0. The independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Scheffe's post-hoc test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis were performed, and a stepwise multiple regression analysis was conducted. Results: Dental hygienists scored 3.43 points in innovative behavior. Variables influencing innovative behavior were emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, and educational level. These factors had a variance of 47.5% among clinical dental hygienists. Conclusions: It is necessary to develop a regular program aimed at improving the emotional intelligence and self-efficacy of clinical dental hygienists to exert a positive work effect and improve their innovative behavior rather than assigning them simple tasks.

This study examines the low performance of state civil servants related (ASN) to the management of public transportation at the Directorate of Road Transport (DRT), Ministry of Transportation, Indonesia. This study surveyed 103 ASNs, using a quantitative approach using the Amos SEM software. The results showed that Knowledge Sharing (KS) and Work Engagement (WE) directly influenced Innovative Work Behavior (IWB) as well as Job Performance (JP). Meanwhile, IWB had a significant, direct effect on JP and acts as a full mediator in the effect of KS and WE on JP. The descriptive data obtained also showed that respondents' statements based on gender have differences related to the IWB variable, where on average, women were better than men. However, for other variables (JP, KS, and WE), the data showed that, on average, the statements of male respondents were better than women. This study recommends that the DRT pay attention to IWB as a key factor mediating KS and WE towards increasing JP by maintaining the best indicators and improving the weakest indicators. Furthermore, this study recommends that future research refine these results by adding the variables of gender and educational level of the respondents.
