Abstract

The importance of innovation (INNO) towards organisational performance (OP) is acknowledged in extant literature. There is substantial evidence about INNO playing the determinant role in OP. However, there are few studies providing empirical evidence of this relationship especially in academic settings. By looking at INNO from administrative and technical perspectives, this paper purposefully explores the impacts of INNO on OP in public higher education institutions (HEIs) of Vietnam. Quantitative research was deployed, and results of the study were produced based on a survey data collected in 30 public universities equally located in three regions of Vietnam during 2018. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was used to facilitate model testing. We find that each type of innovation exerts its impacts on different aspects of OP in a HEI. Besides enriching the literature on this rapport, this study is also of value in managerial perspective as it helps increase HEIs’ knowledge on how to strengthen their organisational innovativeness, and then enhance performance. A list of measurement scales serving as a checklist for leadership of any HEI desire to embark on INNO journey then boost OP is provided by this study.
