Abstract

Purpose- This study investigates the mediating role of knowledge sharing propensity and psychological contract between organizational learning and employee innovation performance based on social exchange theory and psychological contract theory.

Design/methodology/methodology- Data from 184 valid samples were collected through a three-stage follow-up corporate employee survey and statistically analyzed using statistical software SPSS 26 and Amos 24.

The study found that organizational learning has a positive impact on knowledge sharing tendencies, psychological contracts, and employee innovation performance. Both knowledge sharing tendencies and psychological contracts have a positive influence on employee innovation performance. Additionally, knowledge sharing tendencies and psychological contracts play a mediating role in the relationship between organizational learning and employee innovation performance, with the mediating effect of psychological contracts being stronger than that of knowledge sharing tendencies.

Originality/value- The findings provide a theoretical basis and guide practice for organizations that improve employee innovative performance.
