Abstract

The major objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between employees' propensity to share knowledge and their level of innovation readiness in the workplace. The other aim of the study is to determine the mediating role of creative self-efficacy in the relationship between knowledge- sharing behavior and employee innovation behavior. The recycling sector constitutes the study population, and a company that recycles fabric, textile, and garment wastes operating in Düzce constitutes the study sample. Empirical research was conducted to determine how creative self-efficacy affects the relationship between knowledge-sharing behavior and employee innovation behavior. Data on the relationships between knowledge sharing behavior, creative self-efficacy and employees' innovation behaviors in relation to their subordinates and superiors were collected through a questionnaire. The research data were evaluated using the variance-based structural equation model SMARTPLS program. The findings show that knowledge sharing behavior and creative self-efficacy have a positive relationship with employee innovation behavior and that creative self-efficacy mediates the relationship between employee innovation behavior and knowledge-sharing behavior.
