This study was designed to longitudinally explore the cross-lagged effect between innovation culture and corporate education performance by using the autoregressive cross-lagged modeling. For this purpose, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th waves of Human Capital Corporate Panel (HCCP), selectively targeting headquarters and their employees, were statistically analyzed, and structural equations enabled us to fit the final model through competitive model comparison.
The findings of this study indicated that the current corporate innovation culture had interacted with its previous innovation culture on a regular basis and that it had also influenced corporate education performance by time-lagged period. Moreover, corporate education performance was found to be correlated with its pervious performance, thus having a time-lagged effect on innovation culture. Consequently, this study contributed to confirming the structural relationship between innovation culture and corporate education performance. In this manner, the cross-lagged effect between innovation culture and corporate education performance provided the practical implications concerning the prediction and management of corporate culture and performance.
