Abstract

Based on the theory of ambidextrous innovation and dynamic capability, our study investigates into the relationship between R&D leap and operational efficiency. Thus, using panel data of 257 GEM listed firms from 2011 to 2016, we show that R&D leap is negative to operational efficiency. In addition, environmental dynamism positively moderates the relationship between R&D leap and operational efficiency, and environmental munificence negatively moderates the relationship between R&D leap and operational efficiency. Our research is inspirational for managers to carry out proactive R&D management and to improve firm’s operational efficiency.
