چکیده

بررسی عملکرد کسب­وکار به عنوان فرایندی راهبردی جهت آگاهی از دوام و رفاه هر شرکت، ضروری است. به همین دلیل شرکت­ها پیوسته به دنبال بهبود عملکرد خود هستند تا بتوانند در محیط پویا و رقابتی امروزه به موفقیت دست یابند. از طرفی دست­یابی به عملکرد برتر در این محیط، نیازمند بهبود و نوآوری در مدل کسب‌وکار برای ایجاد تمایز و برتری نسبت به رقبا است. برای پذیرش نوآوری در مدل تجاری نیز باید قابلیت پذیرش نوآوری به واسطه فرهنگ انعطاف­پذیر و همچنین قابلیت یکپارچه­سازی سازمانی وجود داشته باشد. علاوه بر این نیز نقش تعدیل­کننده استراتژی انتخابی نیز باید در نظر گرفته شود. در این مقاله تأثیر مستقیم قابلیت یکپارچه­سازی و فرهنگ انعطاف­پذیر و همچنین اثر غیر مستقیم این دو متغیر، از طریق متغیر میانجی نوآوری مدل کسب­وکار بر عملکرد شرکت بررسی شده است. این پژوهش از نظر هدف کاربردی است و روش گردآوری داده­ها نیز از نوع توصیفی-پیمایشی است. پرسشنامه پژوهش توسط مدیران 98 شرکت تولیدی و خدماتی در شهرک صنعتی رشت تکمیل شده و برای تجزیه و تحلیل داده­ها از روش مدل­سازی معادله­های ساختاری استفاده شده است. یافته­های پژوهش نشان می­دهد، قابلیت یکپارچه­سازی و فرهنگ انعطاف­پذیر به صورت مستقیم و غیرمستقیم از طریق نوآوری مدل کسب­وکار بر عملکرد شرکت­ها تأثیر مثبت و معناداری دارد. همچنین نقش تعدیل­کننده استراتژی تمایز و همچنین استراتژی رهبری هزینه در رابطه میان قابلیت یکپارچه­سازی و نوآوری مدل کسب­وکار، فرهنگ انعطاف­پذیر و نوآوری مدل کسب­وکار و همچنین نوآوری مدل کسب­وکار و عملکرد شرکت­ها تأیید شده است. توجه به این نتایج می­تواند به شرکت­ها در بهبود عملکرد و همچنین نوآوری مدل تجاری کمک نماید.
