Abstract

This study addresses the role of ambidextrous product innovation in bridging the missing link between management innovation and firm performance. We utilized survey questionnaires collected from China to test the hypotheses. Results reveal that management innovation benefits exploratory, exploitative, and ambidextrous product innovations. Ambidextrous product innovation acts as a mediator that connects management innovation to firm competitiveness, while no mediating effect exists for financial performance by contrast. Furthermore, market uncertainty increases the need for exploratory product innovation but decreases the mediating effect of ambidextrous product innovation.
