Abstract

This study examines the relationships between cultural intelligence and innovative work behavior, specifically focusing on the role of knowledge sharing. The primary objective is to elucidate how various dimensions of cultural intelligence—cognitive, metacognitive, motivational, and behavioral—impact innovative work behavior in a multicultural workplace. A quantitative methodology was employed, utilizing a survey of 316 expatriate employees from Chinese foreign trade companies. Data analysis was conducted using WarpPLS (version 7.0) for path modeling and bootstrapping techniques. The findings indicate that all four dimensions of cultural intelligence are positively related to innovative work behavior. Additionally, knowledge sharing significantly moderates the relationship between motivational cultural intelligence and innovative work behavior. This research enhances the understanding of how cultural intelligence and knowledge sharing promote innovation, underscoring their significance in improving organizational effectiveness within diverse cultural contexts.
