Managing Employee Well-being and Resilience for Innovation

Abstract

Building on the previous chapter, Chap. 3 aims to provide an integrated review and discussion of the meso-level influences of the human resource management (HRM) practices on organisational ambidexterity (OA) and its linkages with micro-level factors in influencing innovation outcomes. This chapter covers essential elements of social, structural and organisational contexts of innovation, with a focus on the relationship between HRM and OA learning. In combination with Chap. 2, this chapter puts forth the research propositions for this investigation.
