Summary:碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 資訊管理學系 === 101 === Business scenario is becoming competitive and it is not easy to survive in such difficult environment. Twenty-first centuries is the era of knowledge economy, as changes in the information technology and economic environment, the traditional concept that use financial and tangible assets to value a company has gradually declined, replaced by other intangible value created such as organization's core competitiveness, knowledge workers, professional knowledge, degree of innovation, etc. Therefore, researchers have proposed a new measure -"intellectual capital" to explain the case that many company's current market value far exceeds its book value. It helps executives to identify assets that play an important role for the survival in a systematic way. The traditional business concept and strategy has been unable to deal with the fast change and highly competitive business environment, the enterprise has to transform effectively as to managing with an aim to become a perpetual going concern. In this kind of environment, how to construct an “ambidextrous" organization, has become an important issue. However, enterprises should not only play “exploitative innovation" but also take “explorative innovation" into account of the future development for enterprises. Ambidexterity will be a solution for the enterprises with resource constrained dilemma if they combined and accessed with resources outside. In this study, we investigated the relationship between IT department’s intellectual assets and innovation strategies, and the impact of its innovation strategies to their employees’ performance. From the intellectual asset view, the organization has good intellectual capital is the key to developed innovation strategies and to enhance the innovation ability. Study also found that exploit and explore innovative practice can practice simultaneously, helping IT departments to obtain better performance.
