dc.description.abstractThe positive effect of SHR practices on innovation has been the subject of many researches during the last couple of decades. Nevertheless, the objective of the research was to obtain deeper understanding of the subject by studying the role of Collaborative Climate in this relationship. For the purpose, four hypotheses were developed, the first three predicting positive relationships between SHR Practices, Innovation and Collaborative Climate and the last one suggesting the mediating role of Collaborative Climate in the effect of SHR Practices on Innovation. The respondents consisted of managerial level employees from public as well as private sector organizations and data was collected by using survey method. The variables of the research scored high on the reliability tests. The results of the study supported all the hypotheses viz. positive relationship was confirmed among all the variables of interest and Collaborative Climate was established as a strong mediator in the impact of SHR Practices on Innovation. In the light of the findings, it is suggested that merely positive relationship between SHR Practices and Innovation may not automatically lead an organization to innovate and succeed in the market. The recipe for success lies in fostering a Collaborative Climate through a suitable set of SHR Practices and preparing the employees for knowledge sharing and knowledge transfer, thus embedding creativity in the whole organization which ultimately leads to innovation in products and processes and ensures long term success in the business world through sustained competitive advantage.en_US
