Abstract

Innovative behavior and task performance enhance the competitiveness of organizations in the health sector. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of individual innovative behaviors of employees on task performance and to make suggestions according to the results of the analysis. In the research, data were collected from 214 personnel working in health institutions in Artvin. The results of the analysis showed that individual innovative behavior (general) and its sub-dimensions, opinion leadership and openness to experience, have a significant and positive effect on task performance (general). At the same time, it has been shown that individual innovative behavior has a significant and positive effect on job performance and task competence, which are sub-dimensions of task performance. However, it was understood that the risk-taking dimension of individual innovative behavior had a significant and negative effect on the task performance sub-dimension of competence for the task. Based on the results of the research, because of the high task performance of the employees who are innovative overall, who have the ability to produce ideas, and who are willing to try new ideas, it is suggested that organizations should improve the innovative behavior of employees who have idea leadership and who are open to experience and also should determine the accordingly policy. In addition, it is suggested that organizations should support their employees to try innovations in order to decrease the perception of weak eligibility for work of employees who cannot take risks.
