Abstract

Representatives of municipalities and their management are invited to develop new managerial skills in order to implement modern approaches to management. Diversity management means using the diverse potential of employees to meet the innovation and development goals of the offices. The aim of our research is to examine the context of beliefs, values, and rules of diverse organizational culture (DOC) and innovative work behavior (IWB) through the mediation effect of teamwork climate, transmitting and moderating this direct effect in the environment of Slovak municipalities. A mediation model was applied using the Sobel test for the mediation effect. A series of regression analyses were used to identify the proposed hypotheses. The mediation effect was correctly estimated. The direct effect of the beliefs, values, and rules of DOC has enhanced IWB. However, a certain part of them that leads through teamwork climate slightly dampens IWB.
