Abstract

With the progress of reform, more and more outstanding local talents have joined the civil personnel teams and have become an important part of military personnel. How to give full play to their intelligence and inspire innovative behaviors has become an important issue for military human resource management. This study uses the opportunity of centralized training for civil personnel in the military to investigate 450 civilians using the Proactive Personality Scale, Occupational Resilience Scale, and Innovative Behavior Scale to explore the influencing factors and mechanisms of civilians’ innovative behavior. A total of 419 valid questionnaires were collected. The results of correlation analysis showed that proactive personality was significantly positively correlated with professional toughness (r=0.56, P<0.05) and innovative behavior (r=0.58, P<0.05); professional toughness was significantly positively correlated with innovative behavior (r=0.60, P<0.05). The PROCESS3.2 macro program developed by Hayes was used to test the mediating effect of career resilience between proactive personality and innovative behavior, and bootstrap=5000. The results show that the mediating effect of career resilience was 0.245, and the 95% confidence interval was [0.173, 0.323]. The direct effect of proactive personality is 0.387, and the 95% confidence interval is [0.293, 0.480], which proves that professional resilience plays a part of mediating role between the proactive personality and innovative behavior of military civilians. This conclusion also has certain enlightening significance for the management and use of military civilian personnel. Inspiring their innovative behaviors can start with cultivating proactive personality and professional resilience, both of which work together to play a role.
