Development of an enhanced model of innovation adoption by individual employees

This research investigates the antecedents and provides a new theoretical framework that addresses the adoption decision by individual employees in the organizations. The study integrates the theory of reasoned action, technology acceptance model, and the conceptual model provided by Frambach and Schillewaert (2002) Frambach, R. and Schillewaert, N. 2002. Organizational innovation adoption: A multi-level framework of antecedents and opportunities for future research. Journal of Business Research, 55(2): 163–176. The research uses multivariate statistical analysis to test the proposed enhanced model, which is largely supported and validated, accounting for 60% of the variances in usage. This result has strategic implications for organizations in the effective management of innovation involving employees in their workplaces
