Abstract

As organizations increasingly utilize ICT to foster innovation, understanding the role of individual dynamics and organizational arrangements becomes a necessity to maximize the potential of ICT for innovation. Drawing on affordance theory, the present research aims to examine whether and how IT mindfulness serves as a precursor to ICT-enabled innovation, investigating the mediating effect of techno-invasion and the moderating roles of cyber-slacking and age. Data from 358 public school teachers revealed that IT mindfulness plays a supportive and techno-invasion a constraining role on ICT-enabled innovation. Moreover, the results showed that minor cyberslacking moderates the indirect effect of IT mindfulness and the three-way interaction among techno-invasion, minor cyberslacking and age in explaining ICT-enabled innovation was significant. The research offers insights into the multifaceted dynamics of innovation, emphasizing that technology alone does not ensure innovation; human and organizational factors are essential as well. Furthermore, the results provide insight into the dual role of cyberslacking, as it can either foster or impede innovation.
