Abstract:The impact of alliance portfolio diversity on enterprise innovation has always been contradictory.Going deep into the resource level,this paper empirically tests the impact of alliance portfolio resource diversity on enterprise innovation by integrating the resource base view and resource orchestration theory,and further analyzes the individual and joint moderation effects of resource mobilization and resource coordination.The results suggest that alliance portfolio resource diversity significantly reduces enterprise innovation;alliance portfolio function diversity as a specific way of resource mobilization negatively moderate the above relationships;the three-way interaction of resource diversity,function diversity and coordination routine,a specific way of resource coordination is positively related to enterprise innovation.The results suggest the importance of synchronization of resource diversity,function diversity and coordination routine.This conclusion opens the black box of alliance portfolio diversity and enterprise innovation relationship research to a certain extent,and strongly supports and develops the theoretical view of“resource-management-innovation”.
